This article will concentrate on some of Murf’s Appliance’s more common questions regarding dryers. We receive these questions when we travel to Toronto for appliance repair services, and also throughout the Treasure Valley. Read this!

Murf’s gets asked this first question by our customers when they need appliance repairs. “Why must I run my machine more than once in order to get my clothes to dry?” This problem can be caused for a variety of reasons, but air flow is usually the culprit. It may be necessary to run the dryer several times to get your clothes dry if your dryer is not able to exhaust air properly.

Murf’s Appliance repaired a dryer in Boise. Our factory trained technician found that the lenttrap was not maintained properly. Cleaning the lent-trap after every loading may sound common sense to some, but it isn’t always done.

The technician next found an issue at the wall connection. This connection was improperly secured at the wall. When he tried to resecure the connection, the lint was very thick around the outlet. This buildup may cause an obstruction in the airflow causing a dryer to malfunction. More importantly, this build up can pose a potential fire hazard.

Solutions – regardless of whether you live in Boise Eagle Meridian, or the Treasure Valley area, you need to make sure that you maintain your dryer correctly by keeping it clean. Keep your exhaust vents to the outside of your house relatively clean.

Murf’s Appliance Repair had another call regarding dryer appliance repairs from a Meridian based family. Our technician found a blocked airflow after he checked the cause of the problem. True story. A bird built its nest in a dryer vent after the louvers that were located on the outside of the house broke off.
