Serving Charleston, SC & the Lowcountry

If you’re running two or three cycles for one load, airflow is almost always the culprit.

Likely Causes

Clogged lint trap or vent line

By far the most common cause, and a fire-safety issue.

Overloading the drum

Restricts proper tumbling and airflow.

Worn moisture sensor

Can cause the dryer to end cycles early or run longer than needed.

What You Can Safely Check Yourself

Clean the lint trap before every load and check that the outside vent flap opens fully when the dryer is running.

When to Call a Professional

If drying time is still long after a thorough vent cleaning, the moisture sensor or heating element may be the issue. Daniel Appliance Repair offers same-day and next-day appointments across Charleston, SC and the surrounding Lowcountry.
