    • Appliantology Live Dojo, Saturday, 4/27/2024 @10 AM ET
      27 April 2024 02:00 PM Until 03:00 PM
      5  
      All Appliantology tech members are invited to join in this workshop on all things Appliantological. 
      We have a special session planned for this one. Instead of the usual Show 'n Tell on a technical topic, we're going to post tech sheets in the comments to this Calendar Event (scroll down to see what's posted so far) and ask specific questions that can only be answered by reading the tech sheet. If you at least try to answer the questions beforehand, you'll get a lot more out of it. The tech sheet and the questions are posted in the comments section below.
      Your mission, if you should choose to accept it, is to check out the questions for each one and try to answer them ahead of time. Then come to the Dojo to see how well you did! 
      Who: This workshop is only available to tech members at Appliantology.
      When: Saturday, April 27 @10:00 AM Eastern Time.
      Where: Online via Zoom
      How:
      Click here to go to the forum topic with the registration link. If you're interested, register now. Arrive a couple minutes early to make sure your connection is working. Set a reminder for yourself for this workshop so you don’t miss it.  And check out past workshops here: https://appliantology.org/announcement/33-webinar-recordings-index-page/

 I've replaced the filter and it no longer has felt around the edges as the original one did.. and lint builds up quickly in the bottom of the trap.  I have to dig it out at least once a month. Is there a way to prevent this from happening?  I remove and clean the filter after every load.

I see your issue. I can’t find that felt seal anywhere. 

Can you take it from old one and glue it into place?

Older LG dryers had the felt seal around the perimeter of the lint filter.

Newer models do not.

It’s just a very poor design....I now dig the lint out at least once a month.  My daughter has a similar dryer and it has the same issue, so I clean every time I visit.
