How Samsung Dryers Are Built
Many Samsung dryers have a built-in vent blockage test started from the control panel that reports a clog code (such as CLg or C80) when exhaust airflow is restricted. Source: Samsung US - Clothes are not dry after using Samsung dryer
The Bespoke AI Laundry Combo uses a ventless heat pump to dry inside the same drum used for washing, so there is no exhaust duct to service. Source: Samsung Newsroom US - Samsung expands Bespoke AI laundry line
What Samsung Says to Check First

- Cycle ends with clothes still damp. Clean the moisture sensors, pick a higher dry level and make sure the load is at least about four bath towels. Source: Samsung US - Clothes are not dry after using Samsung dryer
