WAY OT BUT COULD SAVE A LIFE!!!
INFO ABOUT CLOTHES DRYERS
I had a wonderful morning, the heating unit went out of my dryer! Why does everything seem to fall apart this time of year!??? The guy that fixes things went in to the dryer and pulled out the lint filter. It was clean. We always clean the lint from the filter after every load of clothes. He told us that he wanted to
show us something. He took the filter over to the sink and ran ho****er over it. Now, this thing is like a mesh-I'm sure you know what your dryer's lint filter looks like - WELL.....the ho****er just laid on top of the mesh!!! It didn't
go through it at all!!! He told us that dryer sheets cause a film over that mesh and that's what burns out the heating unit. You can't SEE the film, but it's there. He said the best way to keep your dryer working for a very long time (and to keep your electric bill lower) is to take that filter out and wa**** with hot soapy water and an old toothbrush (or other brush) at least every six months. He said that makes the life of the dryer at least twice as long! How about that???!!!!
Learn something new everyday! I certainly didn't know dryer sheets would do that. So, thought I'd share!
I tried this today. Note: I went to dryer and tested my screen by running water on it. Sure enough, the water collected in a puddle, nothing went through screen! And this was after I used the vacuum cleaner hose on it! So I turned on the ho****er and took a little detergent and a nylon brush and gave it a little scrub. I had it done in 30 seconds. I then ran the water over the screen and what a difference the water just gushed through it with no
puddle at all and this time! That repairman knew what he was talking about.
PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO OTHER PEOPLE IN YOUR ADDRESS BOOK. NOT ONLY COULD IT SAVE SOMEONE'S HOME, BUT IT COULD SAVE SOMEONE'S LIFE!
