Burning Smell from Your Dryer — Causes & Same-Day Repair

Here's what typically causes this and what the repair involves — diagnosed on a $49 service call by a Red Seal certified technician in Calgary.

What Causes Burning Smell from Your Dryer

On a dryer showing this fault, the usual culprits are:

• Lint buildup on heating element igniting
• Failing drive belt heating from friction
• Worn drum seal allowing clothes to contact drum edge
• Foreign object caught in blower

How We Fix It
