MAK / Dryer Maintenance & Airflow ServiceWHAT TO KNOW
Heat without airflow is not normal operation.
The lint screen, blower path, transition duct and building vent all affect drying. Some internal cleaning or component repairs can be appliance work; a long concealed building duct may require a dedicated vent-cleaning provider.

SERVICE FAQ
Before you request
this service.
Is dryer maintenance the same as whole-duct cleaning?+
No. Appliance and accessible connection checks are different from cleaning a long concealed building exhaust system.
Can poor airflow damage the dryer?+
Restricted airflow can increase temperature, lengthen cycles and contribute to shutdowns or component stress.
What is useful to report?+
Drying time, heat level, lint amount, odours, shutdowns, error codes and vent layout are all helpful.
