Thank you for this video! It gave me the confidence to pull apart my noisy one, clean out all the lint, and put it back together again. Did it over a few nights after work but till in less time than it would have taken for the Samsung service people to turn up (and a lot cheaper)!
Hey thanks for the video. My Samsung heat pump dryer was making a really weird noise. Sounded like the water pump that is connected to the hose was on overdrive. So thanks to your guide I dismantled the pump at the back, cleaned it, and used a wet hoover to suck all the water. It wasn't particularly dirty. Also hoovered the metal grille up front. I don't know why but after that the weird noise went away. Cheers mate!
Bootsowen, the pipe indicator means that there’s a lot of lint in the hose or in the other filter. For yours it’s another filter.
I just cleaned the filter the other day and if you take the door filter out you can look down onto the heat exchanger filter area (the area that you are cleaning) I twist damp J-Cloth around the head of an old toothbrush and clean all the way down. You will see all the condensed chunks of dust fall through and then you can just hoover it all out of the Heat Exchanger area.
A very common thing on these is check the motor mounts that what the noise is when they were out rub against the casing then belt breaks and these heat pumps can take half an hour or even longer to heat is what it is on my beko
Yeah heat pumps take about 30mins to get the heat going. They have no heater so just use residual heat. The top being off would have stopped that heat from building up. My heat pump takes about 90mins to dry a full load so quite comparable to a regular heated dryer, but small loads take almost as long as the heat isn’t there for the first 30mins. That’s where the long drying time comments tend to come from. The time updating is normal. My Miele does the same as it adjusts. Awesome find for £40 and great video 👍🏻 … oh and all Heat pumps have sensor dry settings… (Optimal Dry on these Samsungs) to stop users opening the door to check the load and releasing the heat 😂 you probably added another 25mins on for that haha
That makes sense about letting the machine figure out if it is dry rather than opening the door. How would you clean the evaporator/condenser fins?
Good job 👏 👍
@@bootsowen The original condenser cleaner is a slim, hard hair brush. Try something similar (google some pictures of it) to clean the condenser. Most of the dirt is 1-5 mm deep from the front of the condenser so you will be able to easily remove almost all of it. Cleaning it makes a HUGE difference regarding drying time. Also if you keep opening the door and not having on the top, it will never heat up, therefore the drying will take forever. If you ever open up the machine that far that you can reach the heat-pump and the very bottom of the machine (removing the drum) you should make sure you clean the "auxiliary" radiator which is behind the grill on the bottom right side of the face of the machine.
You might like my subsequent video on this machine where I strip it down and give it a good clean!
@@bootsowen Nice, I will check it out!
Behind those cooling fins are more fins, but they are for the heat exchanger. They take the warm damp air and use that heat again through the compressor pump. I only know this as I watched a lot of heatpump tumble dryer videos on TH-cam before I bought my samsung dryer. Samsung provide a long brush with stiff bristles to clean those fins. I found that after even 2 loads they start to build up with crud, so I would recommend cleaning after every few loads of they will be caked on and hard to remove of you only did it once a month.
Thanks bud for the message. If you have a look at my other videos I do a follow up where I completely disassembled the machine and cleaned the elements fins. The brush that is supplied hasn’t a chance of getting the dust out of the first element.
@@bootsowen just watched it. 😂
Your right about the brush. I just wish there was another fine filter before those fins, even if you have to clean it after every load, it would be better in the long run.
Heatpump dryers take a good 20 min at least to even start feeling warm, also they don't take in it blow out air as they recycle the same air all cycle and keep condensing the water from it if that makes sense
It is all making sense thanks to the comments on here! Thanks
They as far as i know thay dont have an element,
Basically they have two heat exchangers, one gets hot, and the other gets cool just like the air conditioning,
They are completely closed loop without any air exhaust or intake, so all the heat and air is re circulated inside.
So basically refrigerant takes the heat from one of the exchangers and moves it over to the other which causes one to get below the ambient temperature and the other to be above the ambient temperature, than the hot one acts as a heating element and the cold one acts as a condenser (dehumidifier)
It makes sense now, thanks
@@bootsowen No problem, Glad to help.
When you mentioned gas dryer I recall in the 60s when i was a gasfitter there used to be one called Flatly, I think that's what it was called. It was just a free standing cabinet, probably long gone now.
With a flame in the bottom?
These are really good dryers. They use like no electric although this is an older model tho as i think after 2020/2019 they stopped using the optimal dry logo
I like it!
Neat machine you've got there. As others said, around 30mins to heat up is pretty normal (temp is around 60°, so a bit lower than regular dryers), resulting in longer cycle times.
Would recommend you to take your Samsung apart and clean it, because it will reduce the time needed for drying and energy consumption.
A while ago I found an AEG heatpump dryer on the street, needed a new door handle and also a deep clean. Took it apart completely to have access to the metal fins for heating/cooling and rinsed the caked on fluff out with a hose (pressure washer should work too, but didn't want to damage anything haha). All the other parts cleaned as well and put back together. Still works perfectly fine and takes around 90mins to dry a full load.
I think that is on my to do list now, what did you use to get in between the fins?
@@bootsowen I didn't had to get in between them, since the water pressure was high enough to rinse everything out (used an adjustable nozzle for a garden hose).
Best way to check is put your hand on the back plastic panel of the machine 30-40 minutes into the cycle and this should be nice and warm
Heat pump works best in heated room,and it neads to be clan evry year.Basically money you save on electricity,you spend on maintenance.😀
good brands like miele put a filter in the front of the heat exchanger
Hi I admire your videos! There is a lot to learn from it, but I have a problem that I cannot solve. I have a Samsung tumble dryer. Heat pump,no heating thread. Delivery is ok it works fine, but it always restarts when the time expires usually adds 10 minutes. It doesn't stop. There is no water in its water tank. Pump sensor ok. I completely disassembled everything and cleaned it up. Thank you for your reply!
Mine will do the 10 mins at the end thing until it senses the load is dry. Sometimes adds 30 mins or more. Try it on a timed cycle maybe?
In a timed cycle it is ok to stop at the end but there is no water anywhere in the tank. Yesterday he did 4 hours out of the 2.5-hour program and I stopped it. It doesn't stop just adding time. Thank you for your reply. Not turned on wrinkle prevent
Maybe check that the sensors are clean, they are inside, I do a full disassembly in another video that might help.
Hi! I've got the bug it's leaked gas at the pinched part!so I'm writing it to see if it helps anyone else. It needs to be charged. The error has been fixed by soldering it together! Hello and thank you!
Can you also tell me how does water go inside where the drawer where it says Samsung?
very nice dryer are you gonna keep it your the best TH-camr😁😁😁😁😄😄
That's the plan!
I blew up the pipe and what was blocking drainage must have come free. Also cleaned and all filters and vacuumed. And also used plastic tubing and push it up the pipe and blew up tube no code coming up. And not beeping.
Thx for the video, I'm looking for some tips to maintain optimal working state of my DM8000 machine. Very similar to this one.
I think the climate compressor system is not working correcectly. There are tools to bent the fins better againg(fin comb) and some are plastic(so maybe 3d printable?).
But the bent fins could mean that sombody used to much force and with the rust, I think there cold be a gas leak/problem. Maybe check the temperature on the compressor.
Cool that you got it working and if it's good enoght the use it👍
Have a look at my more recent videos on this machine. I have fully disassembled it and cleaned and straightened the fins. It has been working happily for months now.
Heatpump needs at least 40 mins to get warm, and if it senses that’s its not completely dry it’ll add mins. I’ll also give you a piece of advice, you should never open an heatpump dryer while its drying as it’ll cool down so quickly and that makes it add mins. Heatpump is better than condenser as they won’t have heating faults alot, and they dry faster than condesners sometimes. You should keep this one, I have a new generation samsung dryer and it’s amazing, and also about cleaning the evaporator, you can take the garden hose and give a nice water pressure inside, and then brushing it, that will help alot or at least that’s what I do to clean mine, i spray some water in there, at the end of the day the machine will drain it on the next cycle
But if there is loads of dirt in there will it not just block up the pump?
@@bootsowen it won’t enter in the pump, you just make it wet, and you brush it, so there’s no fluff left, I meant the little water that can stay inside goes into the pump, so it doesn’t break the dryer
Ok, but this one has solid clay in between the evaporator fins.
@@bootsowen mine’s the same, next time I clean mine I’ll send you a video on Instagram, it’s ofcourse harder then cleaning a condenser dryer
@@bootsowen we have heatpump heating in the house
That machine screams for a proper cleaning and flusing the heat exchanger!
The condensor/radiator is full of lint. You can take a hose and rinse it down. I work with Aeg,zanussi and electrolux. We van put them on testmode so i can only activate the pump. So the lint will go in the tank. The blockage will result in longer drying times. So best to Clear it 🙂
The stuff in there was so caked on that I don't think a hose would clear it, it was like clay dust. I have cleaned a few condensers from condenser dryers and it takes a bit of brushing to get the fluff out. Is a pressure washer too rough?
@@bootsowen I think that de pressure will bend the condensor but you mag try. I know that you can buy some special tool to straighten them 😜 I know that AEG sells them
Mine is taking FOREVER to dry. Like 6hrs a load. Where the fins are is perpetually wet. Its hard to clean the lint because its wet. I'm guessing its totally full of caked lint. Its not somewhere I can hose it out with water (upstairs and stacked in a laundry room). I used an airpump and it blew out wet lint at me but I can still see lint. The brush that comes with it doesnt brush anything out.
@@caseyallan7483 your meant to wait for the fins and lint to dry before trying to clean it
They do get warm like a normal dryer does take time I have a heat pump only think I can think of is unless the heat pump is broken
Owen, looks like that evaporator / condenser is fairly blocked. I image if that's the cold side it should get damp with condensate. £40 seems plenty for what could still be scrap. Is that an SMA SB inverter, the land rover of inverters, Strange mains plugs and sockets, and the DC plugs are sun clicks not normal MC4 connectors (which don't fit). Sometimes have quite high DC start voltages. Cheers
It is a sunny boy SMA. Good to know about the connectors. I guess I will pull them all off after testing and replace with MC4, if it works that is...
As for the dryer, It was a bit of a punt cashwise, but I wanted to have a go with one of these and the gamble paid off. I think it needs a full strip down to get to clean out the evaporator. I suspect on reflection that there is two elements in there, like a dehumidifier, I don't think corrosion is an issue (although they surely could have used stainless steel!) if it is clean. But I reckon I have to get at both sides of each "radiator" to clean it out. I suspect that there is less than 50% airflow at the moment.
As for high start voltages, I reckon if I run it on a test bed, then plug it into itself it could generate free electricity indefinitely!
@@bootsowen Owen, I'm thinking a jet washer might shift more muck. I'm thinking this is a design flaw. I think that SMA is an early transformer based unit and they are heavy. The model number starts with SB, dead reliable and commonly removed as an upgrade not as faulty. Cheers
Looks like your using it in a cold environment if its less than 16degrees it won't get too warm. It will take longer to dry anything as you have no conventional heater in them (thus more energy efficient) . Ideally they need to be a room above 20degrees temperature
When I was testing it I did it in the cold, but since then it is in a relatively cool cellar, and it works fine almost every day!
I have a brand new heat pump dryer and it does not dry 😢
The black gas compressor tank thing gets very hot and there is no lint anywhere being brand new but does not dry the clothes. Please help 😞
They take forever. About an hour or so before the clothes heat up. Then another 2 hours to dry. Are you sure you are waiting for it?
The beauty of them is that it heats it up with a full load and then uses the heat from the water vapour to continue applying gentler heat reusing the air. By opening it you're dumping all the heat its built up so it has to start from scratch.
The fanning is the cool down cycle where it sucks the hot air out and dumps it out.
I'm in the process of dissassembling one of these (very similar) models as my dryer started to make a crazy noise. I suspect one of the wheels to be broken. Now I need to figure out how to remove the front cover (unfortunately you did not unmount the front cover on your own device). If anyone has a nice video tutorial, I'd be happy to get a link, I'm really a dryer noob. ;) Thanks for the good video by the way!
It should be easy to get the front off if you get to the point that I did in this video. Just try it.
@@bootsowen yeah, it's done. now I need to know where the damn delivery dude did put my package which is supposed to be delivered. I had to order a repalceent turbine, as it is vibrating as hell. ;)
To get hot you need to put it it on 3rd level
I’ve heard that you can pop a generic foam pad in front of the heat exchanger and simply vacuum that every month or so rather than the lint building up on the metal fins?
I think that is a good idea, it can't be any different from a build up of lint on the fins in terms of fire risk or that. I think my samsung just isn't meant to have that foam filter and other ones do.
Very interesting these are ive got the newer one to this
I think I should strip it down to clean out the guts inside.
mine is full of dry mold i removed it with the brush but is smells bad can i clean the heat exchanger with vinegar- I don;t want to take the machine apart
yer put strong white vinegar in spray bottle and gently spray it
I have same problem on my Samsung. I clean everything inside but no heat. How you solve the heating??? Thanks
Sounds like the heat pump isn’t pumping? Maybe the capacitor on the pump is dead.
Strange that Samsung dryers does not use a pre-filter before the condenser.
Some have it and some don't.
Hi, I've got very similar model to this. When I turn it on from cold, it starts going then what seems to be the compressor gradually gets louder and sounds quite angry, but it then goes quiet again and dries clothes fine. It seems to be worse in winter. Any thing I should be worried about or do you know what a likely fix would be?
I dunno, it sounds more like the bushing and rubbing strips that support the drum have worn. You could check. If it's under warranty maybe it is worth asking the manufacturer.
Well now you have a pair🤣 will u keep them?
Probably keep these indeed.
You dont see samsung driers every day. How old is it?
I dunno.
@@bootsowen oh ok
samsung make heaps of dryers every appliance store i goto theirs tonnes on display
Hello 👋 👋 👋
Hello 👋
@@bootsowen thanks you
They don't work well in a garage ,too cold for them
Sounds like an Sensor is failing or something. the time keep going back up isnt good. was going on way way to long.
Samsung know for terrible crud drums on washing machines and failing bearings.
Seems these driers arent to good either. that rust is concerning..
But its running abit rickety like but its running, there some kinda sensor thats failing for the time to keep jumping up. i just would becareful using it with a lot of washing in
But maybe thats the next test? full load to see if the time issue does the same, if not could be a load sensor error, and its over compensating not knowing how little washing is in there ?
I ran it with a full load yesterday and no issues. it went down in time normally. I think it needs the top on to get up to heat.
Thats what dryer do 😹😹😹😹😹😹😹
