(215) 967-4794Before you call: dryer trouble in Fairmount
In older Fairmount rowhouses the dryer usually vents out a basement window or the rear wall, often through a run with tight bends. Lint packed into that duct causes most slow-drying complaints, so we check the vent along with the dryer.
Street parking is tight around the museum and Eastern State, so a note about where to stop helps the visit start on time.

Heat, airflow and tumbling: how a dryer dries
A dryer is really an air-moving machine. A blower wheel pulls room air across a heat source, through the spinning drum where it picks up moisture, out through the lint screen, and down the vent to the outdoors. An electric dryer heats that air with a coiled element; a gas dryer burns natural gas at a burner with an igniter and a pair of valve coils. Either way, a set of thermostats and a thermal fuse keep the temperature in a safe range.
The most important thing to know is that the air has to leave. When lint builds up in the screen housing, the duct behind the machine or the vent hood, the dryer runs hotter, takes longer, and starts tripping safety devices. A large share of dryer complaints, from 'takes two cycles' to 'won't heat at all', begin as an airflow problem.
