There is water in the drum of the HE3 dryer.

At first my clothing took longer to dry then normal. Now when I open the dryer to put clothing in there is water at the top and bottom of the drum. How do I fix this problem?

Update (07/19/2016)

Thank you for a quick response!! The water is in the dryer. When I went to use the dryer drum it was covered in water at the top. The bottom had nothing.

Sorry I mistook the problem for a washer. I've never even heard of this problem.

The first thing that comes to mind is residual water in the exhaust air duct pipe and or a pipe clogged with lint and retaining the water. Then it get hot in the summer, evaporates the water, it rises and condenses on the colder surface of the top inside of the dryer drum.

I have the same EXACT issue. Who do you call for the possibility of a lint clog being the issue?

I have the same problem. Why is my dryer holding moisture: wet inside and water accumulated in the drum. It is 98-103 degrees where I live. The dryer still works. I have notice moist lint when I clean the lint tray.

This is very concerning. Can this cause fires 🔥? Please advise.
