Clogged vents, dirty or cracked lint screens, and overheating drums can also stain clothes. Clothes can be marked by items that shouldn&rsquo;t be in the dryer and oil leaks.<\/strong> <\/p><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Worn Drum Felt Seal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A drum felt seal is found on the front and back edge of the dryer drum. This seal helps to separate the drum and the panels of the dryer, limiting the airflow and ensuring that the drum remains sealed and safe for your clothes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the drum felt seal begins to deteriorate, your clothes can get stuck in between the drum and the panels. If stuck, your clothes can then become stained or even torn and they are subjected to dirt in the dryer housing as well excessive heat or friction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is often accompanied by scraping and thumping sounds and your clothes taking a much longer time to become dry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The deteriorating seal and glue can also stain your clothing when this is the problem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Solution<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The only real solution for when your dryer felt seal is worn is to replace it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For most dryers, replacement is relatively easy. It involves removing the front loading door (this will not be a problem with top loaders) and accessing the drum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You then remove the old felt seal, clean away any debris, and fix the new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07JZ2Y7F7?tag=hvacbuzz-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><em>dryer felt seal<\/em><\/strong><\/a> <em><sub><sup>(amazon link)<\/sup><\/sub><\/em> into place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Look at your dryer manual for more information, but videos such as the one presented below can be extremely beneficial to your DIY felt seal replacement.

The blower wheel draws air over the heating element\/flame and pushes it into the dryer drum. The wheel works with the motor to move the air around the drum to help dry the clothes, and then gets rid of this air through the exhaust vent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If this blower wheel is damaged, the air will not circulate or disperse effectively and can cause your dryer to overheat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another <strong>common cause of overheating is when a cycling thermostat is not working<\/strong>. A dryer&rsquo;s cycling thermostat helps regulate its temperature, keeping it from overheating or delivering too little warmth to dry your clothes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Obviously, if it malfunctions in a way that means the temperatures get too high, your clothes can burn, causing black\/brown stains. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Dryer Not Drying?

The heating element is what heats the air inside your dryer. Heating elements will often become faulty if they are blocked, leading to a build-up of hot air. This trapped hot air can then lead to overheating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Overloading your tumble dryer can also cause scorch marks on your clothing<\/strong>. The items are not able to move around easily, resulting in uneven exposure to heat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some clothes will <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/reasons-dryer-leaving-clothes-wet\/\">still be wet<\/a> when the cycle is over because they were never exposed to the hot air. Others will be burnt because they were overexposed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Solution<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure that you are not overloading your dryer. You can check the weight capacity in the user manual. My dryer has a mark on the front panel that says where clothes can be loaded up to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clean out any lint. Remove the lint trap and vacuum out all the lint. You can then use some soapy water and a toothbrush to clean up any residue. Make sure your lint trap is completely dry before you replace it to avoid mold or rust from forming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you use <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/reasons-avoid-dryer-sheets\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"27462\">dryer sheets<\/a>, lint can accumulate within your dryer blower wheel. Often clumps of lint can get stuck in between the groves of the dryer blower wheel. Cleaning out this lint can be much cheaper than having to replace your blower wheel.

Lint screens help to catch the lint produced by your clothing as it dries and should be cleaned after every use to avoid a build-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your lint screen is dusty or cracked, not only will it make your drying time increase, but it can also leave stains on your clothes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>If you wash your lint screen and put it back into the dryer before it is completely dry, it could cause rust, which in turn stains your clothes. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the screen is cracked, your clothes could catch on it, with the result being dirt marks or even scorch marks. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Solution<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The best thing to do to avoid a cracked or dusty lint screen is to ensure you clean out all the lint and dust from your dryer screen after every use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remove the lint screen from the dryer, remove the lint and use a vacuum to suck up any additional dust and debris. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you clean it out regularly, you will easily spot any cracks, allowing you to replace it before these cracks can snag your clothes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A cracked lint screen is an easy replacement with many <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B091GLJSN3?tag=hvacbuzz-20=\" target=\"_blank\"><strong><em>affordable options<\/em><\/strong><\/a> <em><sub><sup>(amazon link)<\/sup><\/sub><\/em> available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Dust-and-hairs-in-reservoir-fluffy-trap-of-the-drying-machine.jpg\" alt=\"Dust and hairs in reservoir , fluffy trap of the drying machine\" class=\"wp-image-15479\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Dust-and-hairs-in-reservoir-fluffy-trap-of-the-drying-machine.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Dust-and-hairs-in-reservoir-fluffy-trap-of-the-drying-machine-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Dust-and-hairs-in-reservoir-fluffy-trap-of-the-drying-machine-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Dust-and-hairs-in-reservoir-fluffy-trap-of-the-drying-machine-735x536.jpg 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Dust-and-hairs-in-reservoir-fluffy-trap-of-the-drying-machine-335x244.jpg 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Dust-and-hairs-in-reservoir-fluffy-trap-of-the-drying-machine-347x253.jpg 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Dust-and-hairs-in-reservoir-fluffy-trap-of-the-drying-machine-520x379.jpg 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Dust-and-hairs-in-reservoir-fluffy-trap-of-the-drying-machine-640x467.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Dust-and-hairs-in-reservoir-fluffy-trap-of-the-drying-machine-960x700.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw -

If your clothes become stained and you notice a scraping metal-on-metal noise, your drum glides could be to blame. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because your dryer glides can become worn down, clothes can become stuck in between the glides and the metal drum leaving stains (spots like this can be oiled to prevent excessive friction) or even tearing your clothes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Solution<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Drum glides have an average life span of around 5 years, depending on the frequency that you use your dryer. It is, therefore, inevitable that your drum glides will need to be replaced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to replace your glides correctly, you will first need to determine which ones are being used, or more specifically, how they are attached: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Some drum glides are attached with very strong glue, and replacement will require using a putty knife to help remove all the old glue, before applying the new glue and the new drum glides.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the glides are plastic or Teflon, you will often need to remove bolts to replace them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to consult your user manual to find out which drum glides you require and how best to replace them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Things That Don&rsquo;t Belong in the Dryer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes stains on your clothing can be the result of human error, like when we do not realize that we have put something in the dryer that does not belong there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It could be a forgotten item in your pocket that has melted and stained your clothes. Think sweets, gum, or even chocolate wrappers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or perhaps it&rsquo;s keys or coins that fall out of the pocket and end up clogging your dryer motor or vent leading to a build-up of lint or dirt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rubber items like bathroom mats or sneakers can sometimes melt, leaving waxy stains on your clothing or inside your dryer. This means that the next load put inside gets dirty as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oily stains on your clothing may not have been completely cleaned after washing and it remains unnoticed before putting the stained clothes in the dryer. These stains can become worse and more difficult to remove when heat is added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The oil can also transfer to the dryer surface. Oil build-up in your dryer may not only lead to stained clothes but can also be a fire hazard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drying your <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/ikea-mattress-covers-removable\/\">mattress protector<\/a> at a high temperature can cause the waterproofing to come off and cling to other clothing in the dryer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Solution<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To avoid stains, make sure to remove any foreign items from your clothing before placing them in the dryer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check that your clothing is clean after washing to ensure that the issue does not exist before your clothes are put in the dryer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your dryer has melted wax or oil inside the drum, using a solution of equal parts white vinegar and warm water in a spray bottle can do the trick. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spray the solution over the stain and, with a damp cloth, scrub off the excess dirt. Then take a clean cloth to dry the drum afterward. This should help remove any of the dirt that could stain your clothes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Oil Leaking Into the Drum<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If oil is not from an item of your clothing, the oil may be leaking into your drum from your dryer rollers or your dryer motor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil-.jpg\" alt=\"Brilliant iridescent rivulet from oil \" class=\"wp-image-15478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil-.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--735x536.jpg 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--335x244.jpg 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--347x253.jpg 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--520x379.jpg 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--640x467.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--960x700.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil-.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Brilliant iridescent rivulet from oil \" class=\"wp-image-15478 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil-.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--300x219.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--768x560.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--735x536.jpg.webp 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--335x244.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--347x253.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--520x379.jpg.webp 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--640x467.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil--960x700.jpg.webp 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Brilliant-iridescent-rivulet-from-oil-.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-5\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/should-dryer-rollers-be-lubricated\/\" target=\"_blank\">dryer rollers that are lubricated<\/a>, the oil can enter the drum, staining your clothes or attracting more dirt and lint, which not only dirty clothes but also create ideal conditions for fire ignition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unless the manufacturer instructions expressly say that lubricating your dryer rollers is necessary, it is best not to interfere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another culprit of oil in the drum may be your dryer&rsquo;s motor.
