Describe your LG tumble dryer problem
- Not heating
- Drum not turning
- Stopping mid-cycle
- Unusual noise
These symptoms help describe the problem; they do not identify a failed component. The complete model reference and fitting type are needed before parts or visit suitability can be assessed.
Brand-specific fault guidance · Appliance repair questions
Auto Cleaning Condenser is a model-specific feature
LG lists an Auto Cleaning Condenser on RHX1009NMK, while the FDT208S specifications say that feature is not fitted. That distinction matters when choosing maintenance instructions. It does not mean an equipped machine is maintenance-free: lint-filter care remains a separate task. Use only the routine care described for your own dryer, and do not dismantle the condenser area or apply another model's washing or flushing instructions.
Sensor Dry and a fixed-time programme answer different questions
On the RHX1009NMK, LG describes Sensor Dry as adjusting drying time from detected moisture, specifically on Sensor Dry programmes. For a drying complaint, record the actual programme and target dryness rather than only its initial timer estimate. Tell us whether the machine stopped with all items damp, left only thick seams wet, or continued much longer than its usual behaviour. These observations help frame an assessment without proving a sensor or heat-pump failure.
Separate airflow, collected water and drum movement
Include any filter or water-container indicator exactly as displayed, and say whether the dryer uses its tank or an existing drain connection. Report the drum stopping or a scraping noise separately from a damp-load result. If the dryer smells burnt or overheats, leave it unused. Do not remove a stacked appliance to photograph the rear label; provide accessible paperwork and explain the stacking and access arrangements instead.
Keep heat-pump, condenser and vented dryer enquiries distinct
Identify the technology from the model documents rather than the appearance of the cabinet. Report early stopping, long drying or lack of drum movement separately, including the programme and load already used. For replacement, state whether the dryer is stacked, how water is collected or drained and whether an existing vent is present. A different dryer design may need different fitting arrangements. Do not unstack the appliance or open panels to obtain information; the diagnosed fault and quoted work are needed before comparing costs.
Ashford in Surrey: keep the installed address clear
This guide groups Ashford in Surrey with Staines-upon-Thames and Sunbury-on-Thames. It does not cover a visit in Ashford, Kent by name alone. Select the actual town for the appliance, provide the full postcode and distinguish the visit address from a billing contact's address.
Prepare the exact model and fitting details
Complete LG dryer model and heat-pump, condenser or vented type if known. Sensor or timed programme, target dryness and the observed end result. Exact filter or water indicator, tank or direct-drain arrangement. Drum movement, unusual noise or heat, and stacking or cupboard access. Use only accessible labels or paperwork. Leave heavy appliances and covers in place; similar brand ownership does not prove parts compatibility.
Prepare the model and fault details
Let us know which dryer type you have and whether it is stacked. Stop using a machine that smells burnt or overheats.

- Sensor or timed programme, target dryness and the observed end result.
- Exact filter or water indicator, tank or direct-drain arrangement.
- Drum movement, unusual noise or heat, and stacking or cupboard access.
Use the full LG model and suffix from accessible paperwork or the rating label. Product-family and feature names alone do not identify the appliance.

Use an accessible label or appliance paperwork. Leave fitted units, heavy appliances and electrical covers in place. If you cannot reach the label safely, tell the office. Include any displayed message exactly as shown and describe what happened before the fault, without running repeated tests.
Access to the appliance at your address
Give the house or flat number, full postcode and the best contact for the visit. Mention stairs, lift or concierge arrangements, controlled parking and any restrictions on reaching the appliance. Tell us whether it is fitted behind a kitchen door, stacked or in a narrow cupboard.
For a tenant's domestic appliance, identify who can authorise the work and who will provide access. The office checks these arrangements before agreeing an appointment.
Tumble dryer repair questions
Does every LG heat-pump dryer clean its own condenser?
No. The current UK specifications distinguish models with and without Auto Cleaning Condenser. Check the full model before following maintenance advice; the presence of that feature does not remove the need for the specified lint-filter care.
Does a changing drying time mean the control board is faulty?
Not by itself. A moisture-sensing programme can vary its timing. What matters for the enquiry is a persistent unexpected result, the selected programme and any warning, not a parts diagnosis based solely on the countdown.
What details help with a LG tumble dryer repair enquiry?
Identify heat-pump, condenser or vented type from the model information. Describe long drying, an early stop, no drum movement or a warning. Follow only accessible filter and tank maintenance in the exact-model manual; do not open the heat-pump circuit.
How much is a UKCDA LG repair visit?
For Samsung and LG, fixed call-out charges start from £90 outside Central London and from £120 for a Central London service address. Parts are priced separately. The applicable amount depends on the appliance, complete model and fitting type, including freestanding or integrated. Our office confirms the address and fixed charge by phone before arranging the visit. These starting amounts are not an all-inclusive repair price. The agreed charge covers the first visit, repair labour and any return visit needed to fit parts for the same agreed repair. There is no extra labour or repeat call-out charge for that repair. Parts are priced separately and approved before fitting. A different fault, another appliance, installation, removal or alterations require a separately agreed scope and quote.
