Gas and electric dryer repair in Glen Ellyn
Gas dryers and electric dryers fail differently, and in Glen Ellyn we repair both every week. An electric dryer that runs cold has usually burnt out its heating element or blown its thermal fuse. A gas dryer that runs cold has an igniter that no longer glows or gas valve coils that no longer open. Both types share the mechanical faults: a belt that squeals, drum rollers that thump, and a door switch that stops the dryer from starting. Slow drying on either type is a lint-blocked vent. We reach Glen Ellyn from Glendale Heights by way of I-355 and Roosevelt Road at the east end of the village, and same-day appointments are available most days.
What you pay and when
There is a $79 residential diagnostic, waived when we do the repair. The repair price is fixed and quoted before we start. We service gas and electric dryers, ventless and compact models included, from all major brands, and every repair is backed by our repair warranty. Call (312) 600-6540, Monday to Sunday, 6am to 9pm.
Dryer vents that ice over in a Glen Ellyn winter
Glen Ellyn winters are cold enough to freeze the flap on an outside dryer vent. Lint and damp air then stick to it, and the vent narrows. Your dryer runs long and blows hot, and the clothes still come out damp. The heat can trip the thermal fuse, a safety part that cuts power. Then the dryer spins but blows cold. We replace the fuse and check the vent path before we leave.

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.
