While Splendide drum bearings are sealed units requiring drum disassembly for replacement, you can extend their life with proper maintenance. A failing bearing can continue operating for months but will eventually seize, requiring professional repair or unit replacement.
Depends on dryer voltage. 120V dryers work on 30 amp with load management - turn off AC while drying. 240V dryers require 50 amp service. Check your specific dryer model specifications to confirm voltage requirements.
Your Splendide combo's towel matting issue is typically caused by insufficient airflow during the dry cycle or fabric softener buildup. The solution involves adjusting load composition, cleaning the lint filter thoroughly, and modifying your drying technique.
