How GE Dryers Are Built
The GE Profile UltraFast Combo uses a two-stage filter system (a mesh lint filter plus a second mesh or foam filter) located between the display and the dispenser drawers. Source: GE Appliances - GE Profile UltraFast Combo Washer/Dryer - Filter Cleaning
Common GE Dryer Problems
- Dryer hot to the touch or sweating. GE says this usually means heat and humidity cannot escape, so clean the exhaust duct, clear the wall cap and confirm the elbow count suits the vent length. Source: GE Appliances - Dryer - Hot to the Touch or Sweats
- Check Vent alert. GE says to unplug the dryer, disconnect and vacuum the duct, and make sure the outside hood damper moves freely. Source: GE Appliances - Dryer - Check Vent Sensor Alert
Reading a GE Dryer Error Code

| 353 (UltraFast Combo) | The lint filter is likely clogged, often with fabric softener residue; cleaning the filter clears it. Source: GE Appliances - GE Profile UltraFast Combo Washer/Dryer - Fault & Error Codes and Status Messages |
