White goods appliances help, advice & news - plus special offers & voucher codes from the author of Washerhelp.co.uk
Modern tumble dryers usually use sensors to detect the dampness of laundry inside the drum. Lime in our water or cleaning agents can form a barely visible lining on the inside of the drum, which can interfere with the readings. The result could be that laundry can still be a little damp after drying.
I’ve no idea how common a problem this is at this stage but if you suspect you could have a problem use a vinegar-based cleaning product to wipe the inside of the drum and its paddles.

I have tumble dryer ONLY it is not getting hot. Not a washingmachine and dryer combination
The article is about tumble dryers sandralevy. If it’s drying but not leaving them as dry as they used to then it could be related to this issue but if it isn’t getting hot at all it must be a different fault.
we have inherited a 3 yrs old Bellers tumble dryer from the people who we bought the flat from.
we want to keep it in a cupboard stacked on top of the washing machine.
It is not a condensor dryer so how can we dry the clothes without having a venting pipe or window nearby?
