Best Appliance Repair Services in Laguna Niguel, CA

If your dryer is tumbling but no longer producing heat, your first suspect should be the thermal fuse. The thermal fuse is installed in dryers as a safety device. If the temperature gets too high in the dryer, the thermal fuse will trip in an effort to prevent a fire. Once this happens, the dryer will still function very much as normal, but the tripped fuse prevents the heating elements from receiving any power, so it will produce no heat. Failure to investigate and address why the thermal fuse was tripped is not only likely to result in more blown thermal fuses but means your dryer will remain a potential fire hazard.

If you are comparing having your existing machine repaired or replacing it with a machine that is comparable in price with what you paid for your machine 10 or so years ago, you will not be making a valid comparison. The machines are neither similar in quality nor durability for the same price. If you were to merely replace your existing appliance with one that costs about what you paid a decade ago, you'll be repairing or junking the new machine every three to four years. You'll either have to pay more up front for a new, high-quality machine that will give you another 10 years of trouble-free operation or you pay less up front for a low-end machine and then pay-as-you-go for repairs.
