| Code | Brand | What it means | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|

More Details
This is a genuine heater element for your tumble dryer. Powered at 2200W.
Warms up the air inside your tumble dryer, helping your clothes dry quickly and efficiently. Whether you're tackling a load of towels or just a few shirts, this part makes sure the drying cycle gets the job done.
But over time, with all that heat and repeated use, the element can wear out or burn out. If your dryer isn’t getting warm, is taking longer to dry clothes, or stops mid-cycle, the heater element could be the issue. Swap it out with this part.
This tumble dryer heater element is from Hotpoint. It also fits Ariston, Creda, Export, Indesit, Proline, and Swan models.
Before ordering, please verify that this part is suitable for your model using our compatibility checker.
