Overloading the Dryer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Overloading the dryer is an easy mistake and one that many people make.

The first is to prevent clothing from finding its way into the gap between the drum and the door. The second is to reduce friction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The placement of the seal keeps the drum from rubbing against the front panel of your dryer. <strong>If the felt seal has fallen off or become misplaced, the drum&rsquo;s rubbing against the door panel may be creating drag.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This drag creates friction, and as we know, excess friction increases wear and damage to your dryer&rsquo;s components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7.

It is also capable of snagging small items like socks, hairballs, or dryer sheets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your blower wheel collects buildup, it can drag on the motor and create problems with heat and friction. This could not only be the cause of a broken belt, but it may be a fire hazard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, if you have been noticing that your clothes take a long time to dry or are coming out too hot, that is another sign that your blower wheel is the problem.
