Warmth alone does not diagnose drying
AEG explains that heat-pump temperature and duration depend on programme and load conditions. Describe the dryness target, load and result already observed. Explain a cycle finishing too early separately from one that continues unusually long. A different temperature sensation alone does not identify a failed heater.
Filter and water arrangements
Say whether the dryer uses a tank or an existing drain and report any care reminder. Use only accessible maintenance permitted by the exact manual. Do not remove covers, wash an unsuitable heat exchanger or use condenser instructions for another design. Smoke, burning smell or electrical tripping means leave it unused.
Stacked machines and product identification
Give model/PNC from accessible paperwork, and tell us whether the unit is stacked, integrated or confined in a cupboard. Do not unstack it to find the plate. Mention whether the preceding washer spin changed, because very wet loads and an independent dryer fault are different observations needing assessment.

Safe checks and deciding your next step

Identify the exact AEG model
AEG manuals use the model or product number/PNC to identify the product version. Copy these from safely accessible documents or a label; a feature name alone is not a complete product reference. AEG UK model and PNC manual finder
Copy the complete reference as printed, including any suffix. Use an accessible label or your appliance paperwork; leave built-in units, electrical covers and heavy appliances in place. If the label cannot be reached safely, explain this when you contact us.

AEG tumble dryer repair questions
Does less heat than my old dryer mean it is broken?
Not by itself. Heat-pump operation differs and AEG relates drying conditions to the programme and load. Report a persistent change in the actual result for your model.
What is included in the fixed repair call-out?
For a Central London service address, the standard freestanding call-out is £90 plus parts. Integrated appliances of any brand start from £120 plus parts in Central London. Outside Central London, fixed call-out charges start from £75, depending on your appliance's make and model and whether it is freestanding, integrated or another appliance type. Our office confirms the service address and applicable amount by phone before arranging your visit. 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.
What details help with a AEG 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.
