•
Try a fabric softener.
•
Try a fabric softener.
•
Separate heavy items from lightweight items
•
(generally, a well-sorted washer load is a
well-sorted dryer load).
Large, heavy loads contain more moisture
•
and take longer to dry. Separate large, heavy
items into smaller loads to speed drying time.
Match control settings to the load you
•
are drying.
Clean lint filter before every load.
•
Check installation instructions for proper
•
ducting/venting.
Make sure ducting is clean, free of kinks
•
and unobstructed.
Check to see if outside wall damper
•
operates easily.
See the Venting the Dryer section.
•
Replace fuses or reset circuit breakers. Since
•
most dryers use 2 fuses/breakers, make sure
both are operating.
Do not put more than one washer load in
•
the dryer at a time.
If you are drying only one or two items,
•
add a few items to ensure proper tumbling.
