How Commercial Laundry Repairs Differ
When to Call About a Commercial Machine
- One pocket of a stacked dryer not heating
- Drum noise on a heavily used machine
- Burning smell or excess lint near the exhaust
- Dry times creeping up across several machines
Common commercial lines include DR7, DR5, and DR3 from Speed Queen; ask any company you call which commercial brands it services. See Speed Queen dryer repair.

Dryer exhaust must go outdoors, never into an attic, crawlspace or other building cavity; ventless dryers with a condensate drain are the exception. Source: U.S. DOE Building America Solution Center (PNNL) - Proper Clothes Dryer Venting
