Dryer Repair Tempe, AZ
Dryer trouble in Tempe? We fix them the same day where we can, and you get the price before anyone picks up a screwdriver.
What we see most on dryers
Tumbling but not heating is the thermal fuse or the heating element, and a thermal fuse almost never blows without a reason. That reason is nearly always poor airflow, so if you replace the fuse without clearing the vent, the new one just blows too.
Symptoms worth calling about
Any of these on a dryer is worth a look. Several are cheap early and expensive once something else has been damaged.
- Tumbling but not heating
- Taking two or three cycles to dry a load
- Not tumbling at all

Is there anything I can check before I call you out?
Pull the vent hose off the back and check it, and make sure the flap outside opens. A blocked vent is the most common cause we see. It's also a real fire risk, so do this today either way. If that does not sort it, then call (480) 791-8858 and we will come and look at it properly.

Should I repair this dryer or just replace it?
