I just replaced the vent hose a couple of weeks ago and the dryer has
been working fine.
Now I went down to the basement to see what was going on and the vent
hose is full of water. *Gallons.
We're getting ready to put our house on the market, really didn't want
to buy new appliances just to give them away.
Any ideas?
Gallons?
That means you have at *least* 16.5 pounds of water in the hose.
What type of hose clamps do you use...I'd like to buy some...they must
be pretty strong.
check for a low spot in line like a drip loop that allows water to
collect, that happened to me.
and make certain the vent hood is open and unobstructed, it might be
stuck shut.
another less likely is a kid with a hose sprayed water down your vent
line
