What Makes Frigidaire Dryer Repairs Different
The outside exhaust hood should have a swing-out damper, no screen over the opening, and at least 12 inches of clearance above the ground. Source: Frigidaire - Dryer - Not Drying and Extended Drying Time
What Frigidaire Says to Check First
- Dryer stops running. Frigidaire says an overloaded dryer can overheat its motor, so let it cool about 30 minutes and cut the load to a third to half of the drum; a tripped thermal limiter on electric models needs a technician. Source: Frigidaire - What should I do if my dryer stops operating?
- Clothes take too long to dry. Frigidaire points to a dirty lint screen, a clogged exhaust duct, residue on the moisture sensor bars, poor ventilation in a closet install, or a 208-volt supply. Source: Frigidaire - Dryer - Not Drying and Extended Drying Time
When to Call for Frigidaire Dryer Repair
- Drum will not turn even though you hear a hum
- Dryer shuts off a few minutes into the cycle
- Burning or hot smell during a cycle
