Here are some signs that your gas dryer might need a quick checkup from Mr. Appliance® of Salisbury, MD:
No Heat: If your clothes are coming out damp, even after a long drying cycle, there might be a problem with the heating element.
Strange Sounds: Grinding, banging, or screeching noises while your dryer is running are not normal. These sounds could indicate a worn belt, damaged rollers, or something else needing attention.
Lint Buildup: Excessive lint buildup in the dryer or exhaust vent is a fire hazard. It can also restrict airflow and reduce drying efficiency.
Slow Drying: Clothes that take much longer than usual to dry could be a sign of clogged vents, a faulty thermostat, or another issue.
Suspicious Smells: A burning odor coming from your dryer is a serious concern. Shut it off immediately and call a repair service to address a potential gas leak or overheating issue.
