With the wet weather many of us will be using our dryers to get the week’s washing off the line and dry into the cupboards. Think before loading up too heavily though. Don’t overload your dryer: leave space for the clothes and air to move so the damp air can be removed quickly from the dryer.
Make sure ventilation to the dryer is sufficient for the hot moist air to be removed from the back of your dryer if it is not a front vented model. It will waste electricity and possibly damage the machine, even to the point of causing a fire if it can’t remove the heated air. Similarly, keep a door to the laundry open so the air will leave the room quickly.
Lastly, after every load, clean the filter. It won’t clean itself and it will become less and less efficient with each load…. and yes.. will be a fire hazard.
Any problems give us a call on 36301611. You may like to enquire about our workshop rates, which make fixing your dryer a cheaper alternative to having a serviceman come out and inspect.
