Electrolux gas dryer snagging clothes

Good Morning Friend,

I understand your Electrolux gas dryer, model# EIGD55HIW, is snagging and tearing your clothes. There is a possibility that the temperature is too high and you are overdrying your clothes. Make sure to dry your clothes on the correct temperatures and correct times. The other possibility is, the finish inside of your dryer has been scratched or chipped. This can cause a snagging or tearing of clothes. To prevent further scratching and chipping of the drum finish, make sure to always remove any foreign objects from pockets before laundering, as well as make sure zippers and fasteners are not hitting the inside of the drum. Hope this is helpful.

-Best Regards-

My figidaire pauses after two or three minuets

Hello.

what you need to do to solve the problem of the washer is to troubleshoot below are step by step solution on how to solve the problem.


If your washing machine is out of whack, check for these easy fixes
before you spend money and time on a repairman.

1 Make sure the cord is plugged in and that the breaker hasn't tripped.

2 Reset the overload switch - according to the manufacturer's directions - if the machine won't turn on but the breaker hasn't tripped. (Make sure you take some of the clothes out before you run it again or you'll have the same problem.)

3 Check the hot water faucet if the water isn't warm. Also clean the filter screens and make sure that your hot-water heater isn't out of hot water.

4 Make sure the faucets are on, the filters are clean and that the hoses aren't kinked if the washer is filling too slowly.

5 Clear any obstructions in the hose if the clothes are too wet at the end of a cycle. Also, be sure the washer is spinning; if it isn't, remove some of the clothes and redistribute the load. Reset the overload switch. Tighten the drive belt if this doesn't fix the problem.

6 Check the hoses for damage if you are seeing water leaks on the floor.

7 Put a nylon stocking on your hand and feel around the inside of the washer if you are finding snagged or torn clothing. Sand rough spots with fine sandpaper.

Thanks.

My towels are coming out of the wash frayed and coarse. My lighter cottons are all stretched out. What is causes this to happen and how do I repair it.

Hi

If your washer has developed a bad habit of snagging and/or tearing your clothes; before scrapping your washer, try these few tips:

1) Check, by hand, the smoothness of your washer. Look for any broken fins or roughness on the basket surface. Replace, if necessary.

2) Reduce the size of your loads. Heavy, cramped loads can cause a lot of friction which leads to tears.

3) Reduce the amount of bleach used. Bleach can eat holes in clothing.

4) Verify water level is not too low, especially during rinse cycle, where snags are more apt to occur.

5) Consider placing delicates in a garment wash bag

6) Front load washers have no center agitator, so they are less likely to tear clothes.

Please get back to us if you have further query or else please accept the solution.

Thanks for contacting fixya.com

I have the Samsung WF448AAP/XAA clothes washer. The large retainer ring for the front door seal came off somehow. Its a heavy gauge steel wire loop with a spring assembly integrated into the loop. How...

You need to reinsert the door seal back onto the door frame and replace the spring clamp back on. The spring is fairly heavy duty and it will require some muscle to get it back on. Good luck

Our samsung wf448AAPXAA washer will not drain or spin. Its only 2 years old!

The usual problem of this is the pump being broken or blocked. The way it works is that until the bowel is drained or pumped completely The next order to spin will not be received by the control board. Check to make sure the drain hose is at the right hight it could be to high which will cause this malfunction in some machines.

vinegar apparently is good for using in a machine instead of fabric softner and will remove unwanted smells as well
