@6d1271c0…83a3e349 Fires on clothes dryers are fairly ordinary, but should not happen; like every fire. Remember to clean the lint filter after every load. Check the exhaust trunking on the machines regularly so that they don't get blocked with lint.
I have attended a minor fire in a clothes washer on a ship as a firefighter on a frigate at sea. Electrical fault. Also I have been a ships laundryman. The fire wasn't on my watch.
You need to use about 1/4 the amount of detergent you thought you did.
