   Question    posted to Appliance Repairmen on 01/05/09 03:28 PM, Scarsdale, NY 10583
I have a Maytag Ensignia dryer that is heating up but is drying much slower than usual. It took about 6 hours for a load to dry yesterday.

The appliance is no longer under warranty.

We live in Scarsdale and would like a reliable dryer repairman.

In addition, we'd like a reliable duct cleaner to help facilitate our dryer's health.

Thanks.

Thank you for your question.  It is likely that your dryer vent needs to be cleaned out.  Also, you may need to have the dryer partially dismantled and cleaned out.  There could be some technical problems but the vent is the place to start.

You could contact Belgrove Appliance, Inc. at (914) 664-5231 and somebody could come out and clean the dryer vent for you, depending on the size.  They also have qualified techs who could see if there is a mechanical problem with the dryer. 

There is also a company called Indoor Environmental Solutions that can come in and clean out your duct if it is more than 10 - 15 ft long.  If the vent is more than 15 ft, it isn't very efficient.  The dryer should be moved closer to the window it is vented out of.  The number for IES is (718) 824-6591.  They are located in the Bronx, but they are definitely a great company to work with.

Belgrove Appliance is closed until January 12th, but you can fill out an online request for service at www.belgroveappliance.com or www.stovelady.com and they will contact you on the day the return to work.
