More Details
This is a high quality tumble dryer heater element powered at 2300W. It’s at the back of your dryer’s housing. With wiring harnesses each to connect to your dryer’s control system.
The heater element produces the heat circulated in the drying chamber. This heat evaporates moisture from your damp laundry including shirts, towels, and other items inside the dryer.
If the heating element isn't working properly, the dryer will still spin and the cycle will complete, but it won't get hot enough to help dry the clothes. Change it with this replacement part.
This heater element fits select models of Ariston, Creda, Export, Hotpoint, Indesit, Proline, and Swan tumble dryers.
Before ordering, please verify that this part is suitable for your model using our compatibility checker.

Hotpoint Heater Element
This product fitted my condenser tumble drier well and was easy to fit with the correct tools. The part is of a high quality and should last a long time with proper care cleaning the condenser filters. The part was great value for money and was delivered quickly by Ransom Spares.
