Why Is My Dryer Not Heating?

For electric dryers, the most common cause is a blown thermal fuse, a failed heating element, or a faulty cycling thermostat. For gas dryers, the problem is often a bad igniter, a failed gas valve coil, or a blown thermal fuse.

A blocked dryer vent is also a very common reason for dryers taking too long — and a fire hazard. We check and clean vents as part of our service.

Questions & Answers

Have a question about your appliance repair? Here are the most common questions we hear from San Antonio homeowners.

Call (830) 388-0333
  • Why is my dryer running but not heating?
    The most common causes are a blown thermal fuse (electric or gas), a failed heating element (electric), or a bad gas igniter (gas dryers). These are all common repairs we do daily.
  • Is a dryer that takes too long a fire hazard?
    It can be. A dryer that takes too long is often caused by a blocked vent — which is a major fire hazard. We inspect and clean dryer vents as part of our service call.
  • Do you repair gas dryers?
    Yes — we repair both electric and gas dryers from all major brands in San Antonio.
  • How long does dryer repair take?
    Most dryer repairs take 1–2 hours. We carry the most common dryer parts on our service trucks, so the majority of repairs are completed on the first visit.
  • Can I run my dryer if it takes too long to dry?
    We recommend against it. A dryer that takes too long is usually caused by a blocked vent or faulty thermostat — both of which are fire risks. Call us for a same-day inspection.
