Common Tumble Dryers Issues
Drum not turning

Loud Noise
Loud or unusual noises during operation may indicate loose components or drum bearings wearing out.
Not Drying Clothes
Tumble dryer running but clothes remain damp, could be due to clogged vents or faulty sensors.
Maintenance Tips
Clean your filters
Your tumble dryer filter collects fluff from your clothes and this can increase drying time. Regularly cleaning your filter after every load will help your dryer operate efficiently and safely, as clogged filters can pose a fire risk.
Use a high spin cycle first
Before transferring clothes to your tumble dryer, select a high or speedy spin cycle on your washing machine. This will remove as much water as possible from your clothes which will in turn shorten drying times.
Position your dryer wisely
If your dryer is in a cold or unheated space like a garage, it may struggle to work efficiently. Consider moving it to a heated part of your home, where it will run more effectively and use less energy.
