What a Amana Dryer Technician Deals With

What Amana Says to Check First

- Clothes take too long to dry. Amana points to a dirty lint screen, overloading, a No Heat setting, or a vent that is clogged, crushed, kinked, too long or has too many turns. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide
