- 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.
Dryer Vents and Fire Safety
Keep the area around the dryer clear of boxes, clothing and other combustibles, and do not machine-dry items soiled with flammable substances such as gasoline, cooking oil or paint thinner. Source: NFPA (via U.S. Department of Energy) - Clothes Dryer & Washing Machine Safety
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
