Why your dryer is overheating

Here's how overheating typically presents on a dryer: temperature climbs above set point, can scorch food or trip safety. Thermostat or thermal fuse. Across the brands we service, it's most often a failed cooling fan. Left unaddressed, laundry backs up fast.

Most likely causes

  • A bad control board
  • Stuck thermal fuse
  • A failed thermostat or sensor
  • A failed cooling fan

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

Before you call anyone, clear anything blocking the vents and make sure the space around the dryer allows normal airflow. Also, feel whether the exterior housing itself is hotter than usual, not just the interior, which points to a ventilation or fan problem. Should that not clear it, if it still overheats with clear airflow, a thermostat, sensor, or fan has failed, and running it further risks a real fire hazard — this is where to stop and call.

How we fix it

An experienced tech tests the dryer systematically and pinpoints what's actually causing the overheating. Genuine OEM parts for all major dryer brands ride on the truck, so the fix usually happens the same day. You approve a flat price up front, and the work is backed by our labour and parts warranty.

The dryer died mid-week and they had it sorted before I'd even rearranged my schedule. Genuine parts, done in one trip, and the invoice matched the quote.

★★★★★
Same-day response — a tech was diagnosing the dryer hours after I called. The diagnostic fee came off the repair total, just like they promised.

★★★★★
They squeezed our dryer in on a busy day and still showed up inside the window. Fixed on the first visit — the flat price matched the quote exactly, no upsell.
