My facility runs a Huebsch Originators 75 Model JT75CG gas dryer. Laundry has informed me that it is not drying as fast as it used to. I have looked at the unit and it seems to be operating properly, but I was wondering if you could give me the actual drum operating temp on the high setting.

Answering the question directly, the high temp would be at 180 degrees Fahrenheit.

A few things that could cause slow drying:

• Reduction in make-up air or restrictions in exhaust air due to maintenance needs or physical changes to the facility that are unknowingly restricting air flow (this is the likely culprit)
• A high limit switch activating early
• Gas flow restrictions — valves, tubes, regulators, burners, fan impediments or restrictions

Many times, a thorough maintenance effort is all that is needed to get back up to speed.
