One of the appliances that is not allowed to be broken is the clothes dryer. Without it, doing the laundry would take far more time and effort. If your dryer isn’t drying, it can be a big deal and an expensive replacement. Before you replace, see if you can fix the problem. To help you, take a look at these common dryer issues and troubleshooting tips. Make sure that your dryer is plugged in and getting power. If the dryer is plugged in but still shows no signs of powering up, check the circuit breaker. If the dryer’s circuit is tripped, reset it. Make sure you aren’t putting too much clothing in the dryer. Doing so may put undue stress on the dryer’s motor, drum bearing, and other dryer components. It also may hinder your clothes from drying properly. Clogged air vents are a common cause for poor airflow in clothes dryer systems. One way to see if your dryer’s air vent is clogged is by turning on your dryer and going outside to feel the flow of air leaving the vent. If it’s slow and not very warm, your vent may be due for a good cleaning. In case when all the steps turned out to be powerless, call a Tech for professional help.
