How Commercial Laundry Repairs Differ
When to Call About a Commercial Machine
- Burning smell or excess lint near the exhaust
- One pocket of a stacked dryer not heating
- Dry times creeping up across several machines
- A machine takes payment but will not start
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.
Why the Vent Matters
Clean the vent pipe roughly once a year, or sooner if loads start taking longer to dry; a lint removal service can do this. Source: NFPA (via U.S. Department of Energy) - Clothes Dryer & Washing Machine Safety
The outside termination should have a backdraft damper and no screen (screens trap lint), and the flap must open when the dryer runs and be kept clear of snow. Source: U.S. DOE Building America Solution Center (PNNL) - Proper Clothes Dryer Venting
Swap plastic or foil accordion-style dryer ducts for rigid or corrugated semi-rigid metal duct, since flexible plastic and foil trap lint and crush or kink more easily. Source: U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission - Overheated Clothes Dryers Can Cause Fires
