What Makes Whirlpool Dryer Repairs Different

What Whirlpool Says to Check First
- Dryer takes too long to dry. Clean the lint screen, check that the vent is metal, short and unkinked with a free-moving outside flap, and avoid overloading. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Dryer is not Drying or Experiencing Long Dry Times
- Dryer not heating. Make sure a heated cycle is selected rather than Air Only, then check both breakers and the 240-volt supply on electric models or the open gas shutoff valve on gas models. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Dryer is Not Heating

What Baker City Owners Should Know
Most dryer calls in Baker City 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.
