While designed to withstand such conditions, these are tough on the elements. As the elements degrade, they become more likely to overheat&mdash;the <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/dryer-heating-element-burning-out-common-causes\/\">main cause of dryer heating element failure<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dryer heating element is more likely to fail before eight years or so if the dryer is run more often and at higher temperatures.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dryer Maintenance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A more common reason for a dryer heating element to overheat is because of poor ventilation. This often occurs when dryer maintenance is not done as often as it should be.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the dryer lint trap isn&rsquo;t cleaned out after each cycle, lint can build up in the system. Additionally, if your dryer vents aren&rsquo;t cleaned out yearly, it is very likely that even more lint will build up in the ventilation system.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Blocked ducts prevent hot exhaust from leaving the system and cause heat to build up in the dryer. This heat can cause the dryer heating element&rsquo;s coil to burn out, causing the failure of the heating element.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Blockages in the air intake part of the ventilation system would prevent cool air from entering the system and could also lead to the dryer heating element&rsquo;s overheating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Load Size<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although it can be quite convenient to do large laundry loads, it turns out that consistently having huge loads of laundry go through the dryer can be damaging to the heating element.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order for a dryer to dry a larger amount of laundry, the cycle would need to be hotter and more lengthy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the heating element is hotter for a longer time, the strain on the heating element increases. More strain on the heating element leads to a higher chance of a heating element&rsquo;s failure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Temperature Shut-off Switch<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Even with clogged ventilation and excessively large laundry loads, dryer heating elements may survive due to the temperature shut-off switch.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This mechanism shuts off the dryer heating element when it gets to too high of a temperature so that it doesn&rsquo;t burn out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if the temperature shut-off switch is faulty, which is often a manufacturing mistake, the heating element won&rsquo;t turn off before it is burnt out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Electrical Supply<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A steady and sufficient electrical supply to a dryer is necessary, but what happens when far too much electricity is supplied to a dryer in just a few seconds? This is called a power surge and is another common way that a dryer heating element can burn out.&nbsp;<\/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\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge.jpg\" alt=\"Illustration of a dryer on power surge\" class=\"wp-image-25897\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-735x536.jpg 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-335x244.jpg 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-347x253.jpg 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-520x379.jpg 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-640x467.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-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\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Illustration of a dryer on power surge\" class=\"wp-image-25897 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-300x219.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-768x560.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-735x536.jpg.webp 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-335x244.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-347x253.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-520x379.jpg.webp 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-640x467.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge-960x700.jpg.webp 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Illustration-of-a-dryer-on-power-surge.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Power surges can come from a variety of sources&mdash;some preventable and some not.
