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.
