What to Do If Your Dryer Isn't Heating 🔧
Is your dryer not heating up? Don't panic! Here are 4 easy steps to troubleshoot the issue before calling in the pros:
1️⃣ Check the Power Supply
Ensure your dryer is properly plugged in and that the circuit breaker hasn’t tripped. Sometimes it’s as simple as resetting the breaker!
2️⃣ Inspect the Lint Trap
A full lint trap can restrict airflow and prevent heating. Clean it out thoroughly before trying to run the dryer again.
3️⃣ Examine the Vent Hose
A clogged or bent vent hose can block hot air from escaping. Detach it and clean it to keep air flowing smoothly.
4️⃣ Verify the Dryer Settings
Make sure you’ve selected the correct heat settings. Accidentally choosing "Air Fluff" mode won’t heat your clothes!
💡 Still having trouble? It might be a more complex issue like a faulty heating element. That's where we come in!
