01 · BEFORE BOOKING
A simple check.
Keep the lint screen clean and note whether drying times have gradually increased. Do not move a gas dryer or climb onto a roof to inspect an outlet.
02 · UNDERSTAND THE SYMPTOM
What it could mean.
Lint accumulation, crushed ducting or an obstructed outlet can restrict airflow beyond the lint screen. Heating faults may produce similar symptoms.
03 · THE NEXT STEP
When diagnosis helps.
I assess access and the vent route, explain the cleaning scope and check whether the appliance also needs diagnosis. Damaged ducting may require separate work.
This is general guidance, not a diagnosis of your appliance. Follow the owner’s manual for your exact model. Internal electrical, gas and refrigerant work belongs with a qualified professional.
