Simple Tips to Keep Your Dryer Working Properly
Dryers need to be maintained to keep them working properly. In some cases, failing to maintain your dryer can cause a potential fire hazard to develop or cause the dryer to get too hot and ruin your clothes. Here are a few things that you can do to help keep your dryer working for a long time and avoid repair bills.
- Clean the exhaust vent. Lint and dust can build up in your dryer vent. A clogged vent can be the cause of your dryer getting too hot. It can also cause a fire.
- Keep the vent cap clear. Snow and debris can build up around where the vent exits the home. Make sure to keep it clear to keep proper airflow.
- Do not overload it. Overloading the dryer is bad for several reasons. First, the clothes dry faster when they have room to tumble properly. Secondly, overloading it can damage the drum or cause the belt to wear out. It should never be more than half full to make sure that it works properly.
- Deep clean your lint screen. About every three months, you should clean your lint screen with a drop of laundry detergent or dish soap to remove any residue that can be caused by dryer sheets.
- Clean the lint trap. Ideally, the lint trap should be cleaned every time that you use the dryer.
- Replace plastic or vinyl exhaust vents. If the outside of your home has a plastic or vinyl vent covers, it is a good idea to replace them with metal ones for two reasons. First, metal is less likely to catch on fire if it becomes too hot. Secondly, rodents can chew through plastic or vinyl and enter the home.
- Clean the drum. Dryer sheets leave residue on the drum. Occasionally wiping it with alcohol wipes will remove the residue.
- Be gentle on the door and knobs. Slamming the door and spinning the knobs quickly should be avoided because it can cause them to wear out. Always be firm but gentle on the door and controls.
