Washer And Dryer Repair
To prevent the need for washer and dryer repairs, conduct regular maintenance of your dryers, and washing machines to keep them running properly. Check the rubber hose of your washing machine periodically, and look for wearing and tearing. There can be cracks in the hose which can result in leakage and even flooding. Replace the washing machine hose at least once in 5 years. You can expect your timers, switches, agitators, motor bearings and other components to wear out over a period of time. Avoid the need for regular dryer repairs by keeping the unit clean, and insuring proper venting. Get your vent hose cleaned at least once a year by a professional dryer repair man. Most dryer repairs that you can do at home, tend to involve checking to see if the power or the gas supply is turned on.
If the dryer doesn't heat properly, the problem could be an interruption with the heat source. Make sure that the dial setting is not turned to a low heat or low heat setting. In case of an electric dryer, a lack of heating may be because of a blown circuit breaker or fuse. An electric dryer usually has two fuses or breakers. Only one is necessary for the motor to run, but for heating both must be functioning properly. In case of a dryer that has an electronic ignition, a lack of heating could be because of a defective ignition. Get it repaired by a professional gas dryer repair service. In case of a pilot light, make sure that it's burning and if not, light it again.
Washing machines can get overloaded which causes the motor to stop in the middle of the cycle. Simply remove a few pieces of clothing, and restart the machine. If the washer doesn't seem to spin, balance the load of clothes in the tub. Otherwise, check if the plastic tab on the lid switch is broken. If it is, get it replaced by a washing machine repair professional. Spinning problems can also result because of broken or worn out belts. If you have good DIY skills, you can tighten the belt or replace it yourself. Otherwise call an experienced washing machine repair person.
