Stacked Laundry Unit Maintenance
Why Laundry Maintenance?
Your washing machine uses up to 40 gallons of water with every load, and your dryer works just as hard. Wear and tear can keep your clothes from getting clean, and dryer-vent buildup can cause dangerous fires – or damp laundry.
So keep your washer and dryer working right with expert laundry maintenance every three years from Sears pros. Our veteran experts will check for problems before they start, calibrate your equipment for better performance – and make sure your clothes keep coming out clean.
