Dryers are simpler than most appliances, which is good news: the usual failures are wear parts that a technician can often replace in one visit.

Why Dryers Break Down
What a Dryer Repair Technician Checks

Under the model residential code approach, a 4-inch dryer exhaust duct is limited to 35 feet of equivalent length, minus 2.5 feet for each 45-degree bend and 5 feet for each 90-degree bend, unless the dryer manufacturer's installation instructions set a different maximum.
