Common Reasons for Slow Drying

  • Clogged lint filter or blocked condenser
  • Crushed or blocked vent hose (vented dryers)
  • Overloading the drum
  • Clothes too wet because the washing machine isn't spinning properly
  • Dirty moisture sensor strips
  • Weak heating due to a failing element or heat pump

Simple Fixes

  • Clean the lint filter every cycle and the condenser regularly.
  • Wipe the metal moisture sensor strips inside the drum with a soft cloth and a little vinegar.
  • Dry smaller loads and separate heavy towels from light fabrics.
  • Make sure your washer is spinning at the correct speed.
