What Santa Monica does
to a dryer.

Detached houses make up only about 19 percent of Santa Monica's housing units, and about 27 percent are in buildings of 20 or more units.

Santa Monica's Zero Emission Building Code, in effect for new construction from January 1, 2023, required new buildings to be fully electric.

The NOAA station on the Santa Monica Pier averages a daily high of just 65.5 degrees across the year and fewer than one day a year at 90 or above.

On the water

Storms and flooding reach ground-floor laundry rooms first. 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.
