Humidity makes dryers work overtime
Houston air holds a lot of water for much of the year. Clothes leave the washer heavier and dry more slowly. Longer cycles wear the drum belt and the motor. They also wear the rollers that hold up the drum. Lint builds in the vent faster when loads stay damp. A blocked vent makes the dryer overheat. Then the thermal cutoff, a part that stops the heat, trips or blows.
What our dryer service covers
The tech measures the exhaust flow and clears lint from the duct. On electric dryers, the heating element and thermostats are tested. On gas dryers, the igniter and gas valve coils are tested. The belt, rollers and motor are checked for wear. Next comes a firm price, and you choose. Belts, fuses and elements are low cost fixes. A seized motor on an aging dryer may make a new dryer the better buy.
Ninety percent humidity on summer mornings
Houston has a humid subtropical climate. Summer mornings average more than 90 percent relative humidity. The city also reaches 90 degrees or more on about 106 days a year. Damp, hot air makes a dryer pull in moist air and work longer. A garage or attic vent run makes it even harder. Houston dryers need clear vents more than most. We check yours on every call.
Houston dryer calls often start with clothes that smell damp or musty. Loads take two or three cycles, and power bills rise. Some families hang laundry across chairs for days. Once the air moves freely and the heat part is new, a full load should finish dry in one go.
We repair gas and electric dryers from all major brands. No heat, long dry times, loud drums and dryers that will not start are the usual calls. Same-day visits are often open, so a pile of wet laundry does not have to wait. We are licensed and insured for every repair we take on.
