If your Amana dryer has stopped heating, stopped tumbling or started throwing an error code, the technician you call should know the model line. We flag companies whose listing or website mentions Amana and fill in with nearby dryer repair companies so you always have options.
This is an independent directory. We are not affiliated with Amana, and the technicians listed are independent repair companies, not the manufacturer.

How Amana Dryers Are Built
Amana calls for a rigid 4-inch metal exhaust vent kept as short as possible with no more than four 90-degree elbows, and says plastic or foil vent should be replaced. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide

What Amana Says to Check First
- Cycle ends too soon. Amana says the load may not be touching the sensor strips, so level the dryer and use Timed Dry or a different dryness level for very small loads. Source: Amana - Electronic Dryer Use and Care Guide
- Dryer not heating. Amana says to check both 30-amp breakers and the 240-volt supply on electric models, or that the gas shutoff valve is open on gas models, and make sure an air-only cycle isn't selected. Source: Amana Product Help - Dryer is Not Heating
