Description

This heater is the heating element assembly that provides the heat needed for electric dryers to dry clothes efficiently. Replaces a worn or failed heater to restore normal drying performance. What it does:

• Generates heat for the dryer drum so wet clothes can dry
• Heats when the dryer calls for heat and shuts off when temperature is reached
• Commonly needed when the dryer runs but clothing stays damp or drying times are very long
• Works with the dryer's thermostat and safety cutouts to prevent overheating

What's included:

• One heater

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before removing the old heater—this is an electrical component
• Inspect related thermal fuses and thermostats; replace any failed safety parts per manufacturer guidance
• Handle element carefully to avoid bending or damaging the heating coils
