# Dryer repair in West Loop / Near West Side.

The West Loop lies along the western bank of the Chicago River, roughly bounded by Grand Avenue, Ashland Avenue and the Eisenhower Expressway.

## What West Loop / Near West Side does to a dryer.

The Fulton River District, on the river just west of the Loop, has turned from a manufacturing corridor into a mixed-use commercial and residential neighborhood.

In the 2000s the University of Illinois Chicago led a redevelopment that added dormitories, commercial buildings and housing.

In 2003 the Chicago Plan Commission approved the sale of the old produce market so it could be redeveloped as retail and housing.

### Tower living

A dryer in a tower rarely vents straight outside. The exhaust may travel a long horizontal duct to an exterior wall or join a shared riser, and every foot of that run adds resistance that shows up as longer cycles and a hotter cabinet.

### Small homes

In a cramped laundry closet the duct behind the dryer is often crushed when the machine is pushed back, and a flattened duct can stretch drying times badly without any part failing. Rigid or semi-rigid duct with a slim periscope connection solves it in most spaces.

### Older housing stock

Houses built before home dryers were common got one wherever a circuit or gas line could be run, and the wiring may be older than the machine. A dryer that trips its breaker or runs without heat is sometimes reporting on the house's circuit rather than on itself.
