- Dryer heat and airflow test
Why the price varies

When this repair makes sense
- Always; restricted venting causes long dry times, overheating and parts failures
When replacement may be the better choice
- Never a reason to replace a dryer
Signs the vent cleaning may not be the problem
- A dryer that runs long may simply have a wet load from a washer that did not spin fully.
- A clean lint screen does not mean a clean vent; most buildup is in the duct.
- Vent problems can damage heating elements and thermal fuses; replacing those parts alone does not cure the cause.
