Quick, safe checks you can try before booking a repair in Braintree & nearby.

1) Clean both filters

Empty the lint filter and, on condenser models, rinse the condenser/heat exchanger thoroughly.

2) Improve airflow

Vent hose should be unkinked and as short/straight as possible. External vent flaps must open freely.

3) Check load & settings

Large heavy loads dry better split in two. Use the correct dryness level (e.g., cupboard dry).

4) Sensor strip clean

Wipe moisture sensor bars (inside the drum lip) with white vinegar to remove residue.

Still damp? It could be a thermostat, heater or sensor fault. Book a tumble dryer repair.
