Slow drying and no heat across Bloomingdale
Along Lake Street and across Bloomingdale, the dryer we get called to most runs a full cycle and leaves the load wet. Most often that is airflow, a vent so full of lint the moist air has nowhere to go. Left alone, the same blockage overheats the dryer and blows the thermal fuse, so the next call is no heat. Other no-heat causes are a burnt heating element on electric dryers and an igniter or gas valve coils on gas dryers. We also replace door switches on dryers that will not start. Lake Street was once the Chicago-Galena Highway and is still the village's main road, and it is our route in from Glendale Heights, so same-day appointments are available.

Basement dryers in Bloomingdale's 1950s and 60s houses
In a Bloomingdale house from the 1950s or 60s, the dryer often sits in the basement. From there the vent has to climb to an outside wall to get out. That long run fills with lint, and the dryer starts to run hot. Clothes stay damp, and the thermal fuse, the part that cuts the heat, finally trips. Then the dryer spins but gives no heat at all. We clean the run, fit a new fuse and test the heat before we go. A dryer that thumps or squeals has a worn belt or drum roller.
Gas, electric and ventless dryers are all covered. Call (312) 600-6540 and ask about a same-day visit.
When your dryer breaks down, it can be a real pain. Not only do you have to deal with wet clothes, but you also have to find a way to get your clothes dry in a hurry. Fortunately, there's no need to worry. We repair all dryer brands and models, and our technicians are licensed, insured, and factory-trained. We understand that a broken dryer is a real inconvenience, which is why we offer same-day service in most cases. If your dryer has been acting up, A+ Appliance Repair and Maintenance can help.

Dryer calls come in four kinds. Squealing, thumping or grinding from a worn drum bearing, roller or belt. A dryer that will not turn on, often a thermal fuse or door switch once the breaker is ruled out. A drum that spins but never heats, which is a heating element, igniter or thermostat. A dryer that heats but takes two cycles to dry, which is almost always airflow: a clogged lint duct or vent. We repair gas, electric, ventless condenser and heat pump, and compact stackable dryers across all major brands. Repairs start from $199, and the $79 diagnostic is waived when we do the repair.
