Our electric dryer isn't drying as quick as it had in the past, but
eventually it does dry. Once in the past a repairman came out and
cleaned out the exhaust line and it began drying much better.
Therefore I went outside while it was running and from the amount of
air, it appears that the air is unimpeded. What could be the
problem? Should I try to look inside the dryer for more clues? Are
dryers simple to get into?

Thanks.



Is the air coming out of the exhaust coming out as warm as you may
remember it to be?

If not, I'd bet that there's a problem with the heating element(s),
which may crequire their replacement.

As far as dryers being simple to get into, they're simpler than a
locked bank vault, but your success at repairing one depends on your
knowledge of the workings of electrical apparatus and your skill
level.

Does this apply to Sear's repair people?
