Are you looking for information on how to maintain your Huebsch washers and dryers? If you are, look no further!  We have all the info you’ll need to keep them running like new.

For Frontload Washers:

• Leave the loading door open during extended periods of non-use to allow the wash drum to dry out and avoid a musty smell.
• Check the filter screens in the fill hoses for debris or damage annually. Clean or replace them if necessary.
• Check all hoses on a monthly basis for any visible signs of deterioration such as cracks, blisters or material wear. Replace immediately any hoses showing these signs.

For Dryers:

• Thoroughly clean the dryer every year. Have an authorized service representative perform this maintenance.
• Clean the lint filter before drying each load. The lint filter may be washed if needed. Annually remove lint filter and screw to vacuum the duct under it.
• Inspect the exhaust duct for lint build-up after one year of service. Clean if necessary. Inspect every one to two years as required thereafter.
• Inspect the outside weather hood frequently to make sure dampers move freely, dampers are not pushed in and that nothing has been set against them.

For Tumble Dryers:

• Thoroughly clean the tumbler every year. Have an authorized service representative perform this maintenance.
• Clean any lint from the lint compartment and screen daily to maintain proper airflow and avoid overheating.
• Check cylinder daily for foreign objects to avoid damage to clothing and equipment.
• Remove lint and debris from inside the exhaust duct monthly to maintain proper airflow and avoid overheating.

For Stacked Washer/Dryers:
