What changes a Candy repair bill
- Brand tier — Candy-Hoover (Haier) budget brand; among the cheapest parts in Ireland — eSpares IE Candy dryer heater element €41.71–€48.36; shares the Hoover low-cost aftermarket. Value tier.
- Parts vs labour — the brand and tier shift the parts price; labour tracks your area's wage index, not the brand.
- The specific fault — a sensor, seal, or valve is far cheaper than a compressor, motor, or control board.
- DIY vs professional — Some Candy faults (filters, seals, hoses) are DIY-feasible for confident owners; sealed-system and control-board work is a professional job.

Available through Candy's UK/EU service network, but customers frequently report multi-week to multi-month waits for specific parts due to stock shortages, plus criticized customer-service responsiveness.
