    Re: Indesit Iwdc 6105

    Rather poor punctuation TBH. The full stop after ‘start’ is confusing????

    Which led starts flashing?

    Error codes on these are in the Known Error Codes thread.

    Re: Hotpoint thumble dryer thermostate issue

    This is a Whirlpool dryer rebadged as Hotpoint. The parts diagrams for these are not very clear but it appears that the heater and thermostats come as a complete assembly, list price £83.50. 🙁

    There is also another ntc that appears to be located in the front fan housing.

    No test programme, should show error messages in display, it is around 14 years old though. 🙁

    Do you have the industrial code Cliff?

    Vented is always the best option when you can route the vent hose correctly. A badly fitted door seal would cause condensation.

    Re: Candy GVS C9DG-80 Small amounts of water in tank.

    If the tank is at the bottom then it is gravity fed and usually far less troublesome than one with a pump.
    A sticking valve to the water tank can cause this, pull the water container in and out a few times which may release it and make sure it is pushed fully home.

    Keeping the condenser clean is essential as well.

    Re: Gas tumble dryer

    Heat pump dryers take an age to heat up/dry the load. Condensor dryers don’t take any longer than vented ones but are more complex and need to be cleaned religiously to work correctly.

    There are lots of dryers vented upwards, and lots of calls to the problems caused by this. 😉

    Rather than go the full ‘Heath Robinson’ 😀 you could simply use the dryer with the hose going up to that outlet but don’t fix it permanently at the top. Then after drying your clothes just lower the pipe to the ground to allow it to drain/dry out.

    Re: Gas tumble dryer

    I would always advise a vented dryer as long as the vent hose conditions are correct, my own dryer is vented. You do need to take care with the routing of the hose though.

    Re: Gas tumble dryer

    I would never advise routing a vent hose from a dryer upwards above the level of the dryer. They can fill with condensation leading to water running back into the dryer, hoses getting clogged with damp fluff or even totally blocked.

    I once had a stacked dryer( on top of a washing machine ) in a kitchen that was vented upwards into the loft space. It filled with water which leaked into the washing machine causing major damage to the electronics.

    A very common fault on dryers vented upwards in garages and even though you say the temperature never drops below 10C the last foot or so of the hose will be subject to outside temperatures and winds that will be much colder in winter.

    In this instance I would go with a condenser dryer unless you can remove and dry the vent hose at regular intervals during winter time.

    Re: hotpoint wdud 9640

    F13 is high temperature rise on drying cycle.

    Common causes are blocked condenser and also blocked pump filter.
