Ensure the safe use of your clothes dryer and follow this guide on how to efficiently take care of your dryer. Whether you need some advice on how to clean your clothes dryer, or just some general day-to-day tips to have it working its best, The Good Guys have got you covered.
Along with delivering fantastically dry, warm and soft clothes, your dryer also collects excess fluff along the way, which is caught in its lint filter.
It’s no secret that a build-up of lint can be a potential fire hazard and affect the efficiency of your dryer. A quick and simple way to avoid lint build-up is to remove it after every second or third use, to make it a part of your laundry routine.
30 seconds spent removing lint, can prevent future risks and encourage your clothes dryer to work at its best capacity for years to come.
Similar to the lint screen, a clothes dryer’s vent is a common location for lint build-up. It is recommended to clean out your dryer’s vent twice a year using a small brush (a toothbrush or a job specific brush) to remove any materials that are blocking the airway.
Again, there are potential fire risks involved with excess lint in your vent so this is a key fix to ensure your dryer runs smoothly.
Please consult with your dryer’s product guide before using this method to see what is recommended for cleaning your specific machine.
Say goodbye to chemicals, ironing and high energy bills by introducing dryer balls into your laundry routine. Simply add the balls to your dryer load to reap these benefits:
1. Dryer balls separate your clothes which allows more air to circulate, making your clothes dry faster 2. When adapting a rotating motion, the spikes on the dryer balls work to naturally soften clothes removing the need for chemical softeners 3. As garments are separated, they come out of the dryer less creased which reduces the need to iron
Please note: Dryer balls may not be compliant with every material type so be sure to check your clothing labels for washing guidance before using them.
1. Separate your clothes before putting them in your dryer as tangled clothes take longer to dry and they often come out more creased
2. If your laundry is dripping wet, put it through another spin cycle to get rid of excess water as extra weight can damage your dryer’s drum and can also lead to higher energy bills 3. Store your dryer in an area of your house with good ventilation so that humidity can be reduced as much as possible 4. Don’t overload your dryer as too many clothes stuffed together can mean hours and hours of drying, propelling your energy bills through the roof!
Follow these tips for a long-lasting clothes dryer.
