Hotpoint / Washer dryer / BR3
Washing works but drying does not
Keep the washing result and drying result separate in your description. Say whether the drying phase begins, whether the clothes become warm and how the programme finishes. Include the selected combined cycle and approximate load. The drying arrangement belongs to the exact washer-dryer model; it should not be inferred from a separate dryer.
Compare this observation: the wash phase leaves water
Describe whether the machine attempted to empty and whether it reached the spin. Water left during washing can affect the later drying stage too. Keep a water-filled door closed and leave drain connections attached. Record any warning and unusual sound so the enquiry describes the whole interrupted cycle rather than only damp laundry.
Working room is restricted.
Mention the space around the equipment and anything blocking normal access. Do not drag a machine out, loosen a mounting or disconnect pipework to show the fault.
For the Beckenham address
BR3 is the starting point for Beckenham. Include the full postcode and whether access involves a flat entrance, stairs or fitted cabinetry. Do not move the appliance to prepare a photograph.
Read the identity, not just the badge.
Quote the complete model and serial or service number from a safely visible label. Similar product names can hide different components. If the label is concealed, leave the appliance in place and tell us the model is unknown.
A manufacturer reference checked on 2026-10-26. Model identity does not confirm parts, stock or repair acceptance.
A useful question for the enquiry
Does “washing works but drying does not” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “the wash phase leaves water”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: working room is restricted. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
