WASHER & DRYER MAINTENANCE TIPS EVERY HOMEOWNER SHOULD KNOW

WASHER & DRYER MAINTENANCE TIPS EVERY HOMEOWNER SHOULD KNOW

Your washer and dryer handle heavy loads every week. With proper care, they'll last for years.


Clean the Washer Filter Most washers have a drain filter that catches lint, coins, and debris. Clean it every few months to prevent clogs.


Balance the Washer If your washer shakes or "walks" across the floor, adjust the leveling legs to keep it stable.


Clean the Dryer Lint Trap Always remove lint after each load. A clogged lint trap reduces efficiency and can become a fire hazard.


Check the Dryer Vent At least once a year, clean the vent hose and outside exhaust. Poor airflow causes overheating and long drying times.


Pro Tip: If your washer isn't spinning or your dryer isn't heating, call Airtexno. We service Whirlpool, LG, Samsung, Maytag, and more in Ventura County.
