A dryer that takes two or three cycles to finish is usually fighting a restricted vent. In townhouse communities with shared walls, the duct may run a long way, so lint can collect in places you cannot see. Clean the lint screen and the lint housing, then check the outside hood for flap movement. Clear the area around the machine before any visit so the vent can be reached.
Columbia's oldest villages date to the late 1960s and 1970s, and many of those houses have had kitchens upgraded more than once.
| What you notice | Usual causes |
|---|---|
| Very hot to the touch outside | Blocked exhaust. Stop using it until the vent is cleared |
| Shuts off early | Overheating from a clogged vent, or a moisture sensor coated with residue |
