The drum comes out, the base duct and the heat-exchanger coils are exposed, and everything is vacuumed and brushed clean before reassembly. [[File:LG_dryer_before_teardown.jpg|600px|center|The LG WE16HW before teardown]] == Why open it up == A heat-pump dryer does not vent its air outside. It recirculates it through two coils in the base: the '''evaporator''' cools the air so the moisture condenses out, then the '''condenser''' heats it again before it goes back into the drum. Any lint that gets past the door filter ends up in that loop. It settles in the base duct and mats onto the face of the evaporator, where it blocks the airflow. == Teardown == <gallery mode="packed" heights="260"> File:LG_dryer_drum_removed.jpg|Drum and side panel out, back frame still standing with the base exposed File:LG_dryer_base_overview.jpg|The base from above: compressor, drive motor with belt idler and fan, hoses and the coil housing File:LG_dryer_motor_compressor.jpg|Drive motor, idler pulley, fan and compressor, seen from under the drum.

The wiring harness has several similar plugs. * The copper refrigerant pipes stay connected the whole time. Do not bend them or lever against them. == How dirty it was == <gallery mode="packed" heights="300"> File:LG_dryer_base_lint.jpg|Lint packed into the base duct under the drum, all the way to the grille File:LG_dryer_evaporator_before.jpg|The evaporator coil: the bottom half buried in a mat of lint, the rest covered in a lint web </gallery> The motor and compressor side stayed fairly clean, with only a thin layer of lint on the floor of the base (third teardown photo above).

Use a soft brush and a vacuum with a brush nozzle, and always move along the fins, never across them. * Get the thick mat off by hand first. It comes away in sheets, and the fine lint underneath is then easy to vacuum. * Vacuum the base duct, the grille and the drum seals before putting the drum back. 返回到「LG WE16HW dryer teardown and cleaning」。
