Having clean clothes is something most people view as a priority. The only way to keep the clothes you own clean is by investing in a quality washer and dryer. Every year, American consumers spend millions of dollars on new washers and dryers. Once you find and buying a new washer/dryer combo, your main concern should be keeping it running efficiently.
Since new washer/dryer combos are so expensive, you need to find a way to make your new appliances last a long time. Accomplishing this goal will require some hard work and the help of appliance repair professionals. If you want to extend the life of your washer and dryer, check out the great tips below.
As you dry your clothes and linens, lint will come off of them. This lint will start to collect in your dryer’s ducts and lint trap. Many modern washing machines also collect lint. If you want to keep these appliances running efficiently, then you need to realize the importance of removing lint from them. Leaving lint traps full can affect how well your washer and dryer operate. The last thing you want is to overwork these appliances, which is why you need to check and clean these lint traps before each load.
You also need to hire professionals to come in and clean your dryer ducts once a year. By doing this, you can reduce the risk of fire. Removing the lint from these ducts can also provide your dryer with better airflow. The money paid for this professional help is worth it due to the problems it can help you avoid.
Failing to level a washer is one of the biggest mistakes you can make as a homeowner. If this appliance is properly leveled, it will vibrate and might move across the floor. When your washer moves, it can damage items around it and the actual appliance itself. Modern washing machines feature leveling legs. These legs can be screwed in or out to level up the washer.
Ignoring the need for washer leveling can cause big problems in the future. If you don’t feel comfortable leveling your washer, then allowing professionals to handle this process is a wise move.
Water fill hoses are one of the main things your washer needs to function properly. A new washer will generally come with fill hoses. However, as time goes by, these hoses can become cracked and damaged. Instead of dealing with the damage that can be cause broken fill hoses, you need to inspect this vital part of your washer regularly. During these inspections, you need to look for any cracks or holes in your hoses. If you discover these problems, you need to get new fill hoses installed immediately.
