What Makes Speed Queen Dryer Repairs Different

What Speed Queen Says to Check First
- Clothes not drying well. Speed Queen points first to the exhaust and weather hood and the lint filter, then to the dryness or time setting and separating heavy items from light ones. Source: Speed Queen (Alliance Laundry Systems) - User's Guide for Dryers
- Clothes wrinkled. Speed Queen recommends a lower heat setting to avoid over-drying and smaller loads so items can tumble freely. Source: Speed Queen (Alliance Laundry Systems) - User's Guide for Dryers
When to Call for Speed Queen Dryer Repair

Around Texarkana
Most dryer calls in Texarkana come down to the same handful of parts: the vent and lint path, the heat source, the belt and rollers, and the door and start switches.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, ยง1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
