The General Electric WE11X27152 Dryer Heater serves as the device that produces heat to dry clothes. The device transforms electrical power into heat using its heating component. The activated dryer heater distributes heat throughout the drum space to warm up the internal air. The heated air takes moisture from clothes to make them dry quickly with uniform results. The dryer heater operates with a temperature regulation system that prevents either excessive or insufficient drying of clothes. The device shortens drying time while saving energy consumption. The dryer heater includes construction elements that resist the temperature fluctuations which occur throughout each drying process.
