I have the HLP140E Haier Electric 110V dryer. In the inside there is the dryer lint trap along with an exhaust filter. I am trying to find out where to purchase the exhaust filter. It is a black round filter with a center hole. Does any one have an idea where to get this filter at?
I have had this dryer for 4+ years and finally have used the "floor vent" filters that come 12" x 4" and cut two of them to fit. It's a pain because unlike the round design they can "fall out" when you snap the filter back in. Be that as it may, they work well because you cannot buy the black round wool filter anywhere.
Poor air flow would be my guess. How long is the vent hose? Does it have more than one angle/turn before venting outside? Is the lint gathering around the outer edges of the door? Keeping the length of air travel shorter will improve the operation.

Hello,
Here is a link to an exploded view and parts list for your dryer. http://www.pcappliancerepair.com/model-display.php
If you are certain that the filter is not compromised or damaged and is properly seated into the housing , you may have a problem with the housing itself whereby lint is getting into the blower thru a break in that housing.. I would examine that area for damage.. and make sure when you reinsert the filter, it is seated all the way down.. Hope this helps you... BTW: over time, it is not unusual for lint to build up in the duct since some of that lint is smaller than the filter media and will work its way thru.. If you are getting that degree of lint build up very quickly then you may have a problem as mentioned above..
Regards,
Rick
SOURCE: Ventilation question regardingHAIER HLP140E
Hi I own this dryer and you have two choices for venting it. One reason I originally bought it is because you can run it safely without venting it to the outside. That's a huge plus for many small apartments or a dorm room etc. For that option you purchase a 'ventless' kit from Lowe's or Home Depot, can't remember the exact cost but definitely less than $20. It works very well, but will add some heat to your living space (nice if you're in NY, less nice in Miami). It didn't add a lot of heat to the space, but later on I ended up installing a vent through the outside wall (which was much easier to do than I thought) because I was doing some drywall work in that area anyway. That vent is also very inexpensive, maybe $10. The standard vent kit opening will be for 4" whereas this dryer's vent opening is 3" - but the dryer comes with a piece that makes the 3" to 4" transition for you. This is a very convenient unit because it only needs 110v (standard household outlet) instead of the usual 220 (or is that 240?). The main thing that will help you be happy with it is just to have the realistic expectation that it takes about twice as long to dry clothes (60-90 min) because it's on lightweight power. But it does a very nice job, and we love the little washing machine we got with it too!
SOURCE: Lint fell down the lint trap. How do I get it
Luckily, dryers are light. Best thing to do is pull it out until you can remove the back cover. (unplug it first) Then vacuum and clean all the dust and lint you can. This should be a yearly thing at least anyway. Replace the back plug it in and slid it back. I do mine every 6 months or so.

I just found the "pad" for $10.99. I did not bother to order as my first solution is much less expensivehttp://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdir...
i found them Repairclinic.com for $7.75 + shipping, bought 2 of them.
I've found them at partstore.com, part # WD-5100-23 for $7.64.
