What Germantown does to a dryer
A dryer that takes two cycles in a basement laundry is usually short of airflow: a crushed foil duct behind the machine, a clogged exterior flap or lint in a long run to the outside. Many dryers here run on natural gas, and we check the burner and igniter as well when the airflow is fine.
Problems worth ruling out first on a dryer in Germantown:
- Takes Too Long to Dry
- Taking Too Long to Dry
- Exhaust Duct Clogged
- Restricted Exhaust Airflow
- Dryer Venting Improperly
- Lint Trap / Screen Damaged
Known weak spots on Whirlpool dryers
- Drum turning without heat
- Dryer not starting
- Drum squealing
- Drying taking too long
On Whirlpool dryers, the faults that come up most are open thermal fuses, burned-out heating elements, worn idler pulleys or drum belts, and gas valve coils or igniters. Symptoms that bring us out include drum turning without heat, dryer not starting, and drum squealing. With the dryer running, step outside and feel the vent hood; poor airflow there is the most common reason these models blow a thermal fuse. A burning smell usually means lint has built up around the heater or in the duct, and the dryer should stay off until it is cleaned.
