A dryer that stood in water needs its motor, wiring and any gas controls inspected before it is switched on again, even if it looks dry. ### Small homes Compact and stacked dryers are harder to service in place, and reaching the back panel may mean easing the machine partway out of a closet that was built around it. A careful visit protects the floor, the door frame and whatever sits beneath the dryer. ### Mixed housing Older homes may still have vinyl or foil ducts behind the dryer, while newer ones were fitted with rigid metal vents, and the material makes a real difference to drying time and fire risk. Replacing a crushed plastic duct is one of the most useful fixes on these streets. ## A visit in Santa Monica. Four steps from the call to a working dryer in Santa Monica, Los Angeles County.
