  • Candy Tumble Dryer Safety Recall: What Consumers Need to Know

Recent news has highlighted a safety issue affecting certain Candy tumble dryers, part of the Haier group. Thousands of built-in heat pump tumble dryers manufactured between 2019 and 2025 have been found to carry a fire risk due to manufacturing inconsistencies. At Glotech Repairs, we advise homeowners across London, Surrey, Hertfordshire, Essex, Cambridgeshire, and nationwide to take such warnings seriously.
