Know the home, know the fault

Properties in this part of Devon range from older buildings dating back to when the settlement expanded on the medieval wool trade, to twenty-first century housing developments on the eastern edge. A washer dryer does the job of two machines in a single footprint, which is useful whether a machine is fitted in a historic cottage near the northern edge of Dartmoor or a newly built utility room. Because these units handle both washing and drying cycles in one drum, they work harder than separate machines and run for longer periods. When a washer dryer stops drying, the issue might be a failed heater element, a tripped thermostat, or a blocked condenser chamber that leaves clothes damp and causes cycles that never finish. Washing faults are just as disruptive. A machine that is not filling, draining or spinning can point to a faulty inlet valve, a blocked pump filter, or worn motor brushes. Leaks and door seal problems happen when the rubber gasket degrades or gets pierced by a stray coin. Error codes and control faults can also stop the machine from switching between its washing and drying phases. When visiting homes here or in nearby South Zeal, we look at the appliance in its installed position. We check the water supply, the drainage route, and the internal components to find out why it has stopped washing or drying. Our service covers electric appliances only, so we do not work on gas cookers or any gas appliance.
