More Details
Heater elements in tumble dryer control temperature
When the dryer is turned on, electrical current flows through the heater element. The wire heats up as a result of resistance that the current meets during its passage through the wire. The clothes are then dried by the warm air.
When do they need to get replaced?
Heating and cooling processes, tension, mineral deposits from hard water, and ageing can cause heater elements to deteriorate over time. The need for heater element replacement is indicated by signs like insufficient heating, prolonged drying times, insufficient heat production, cold spots on clothing or the drum, visibly damaged elements (burn marks, breaks, or corrosion), and a broken thermostat signalling problems with temperature regulation.
Would this heating element work in my tumble dryer?
This heater element is a genuine Hotpoint tumble dryer replacement part. It also fits Indesit tumble dryers. Use our compatibility checker to see if this part fits your model.
