Choosing a Tumble Dryer With Heat Pump

You can make your laundry day a little easier by using a tumble dryer. It will save you the stress of hanging your clothes up and air them. What are the options to choose between the three main types of tumble dryers - vented condenser, heat pump and heat pump?

Tumble dryers with heat pumps recycle air to remove moisture from clothing.

Condenser dryers

In a condenser dryer moisture from your clothes evaporates into water inside the tumble drum. This water is then deposited in a tank of condensation inside the appliance that you need to empty regularly. Contrary to vented models, they don't require a connection to an exhaust duct outside, so you can put them anywhere in your garage or at home. They're also quieter than vented tumble dryers.

A condenser dryer will usually come with a "cool" setting which reduces the temperature of drying to help your clothes last longer. This also allows them to not shrink. Some models have self-cleaning cycles that clean the drum automatically every 4-5 cycles. Some models can even inform you when your laundry is dry to prevent drying too long.

If you choose a freestanding model or one with an integrated tumble dryer, you'll find a range of convenient features like anti-vibration or an anti-wrinkle function. Certain models reverse the drum during the cycle to prevent the items from forming a tangled ball, or 'laundry-sausage', that could damage your clothes.

Both heat pump and vented tumble dryers take time to dry clothes, therefore you should think about the space in which they will be installed. If you're on a strict schedule or want your laundry completed quickly venting a dryer is the ideal choice. It can be placed close to an exterior wall or window.

You might also prefer a tumble dryer with a heat pump which has a closed loop system. These machines do not require vents, so you can put them in any space with a good ventilation. They take a bit longer to dry than vented models since they have to reheat the air before they are able to extract moisture from it. They are also very energy-efficient and therefore good for the environment. You can also purchase a tumble-dryer with an integrated washer or a combo washer dryer with heat pump-dryer which is ideal for busy families.

Vented dryers

Vented dryers make use heat to evaporate and remove the moisture from your clothes. This process requires a lot of energy, so vented dryers can be expensive to run. They must also be installed in a space with a vent pipe that runs to the outside of your house, which may require an installation that is more permanent. The exhaust can cause your home's temperature to rise, and it must be able to exit into an open space.

It is important to note that vented tumble dryers require more time to dry compared to condenser or heat pump models. These models are made for energy efficiency. They depend on dry, hot air to evaporate moisture. Your clothes will therefore be exposed to higher temperatures for more time. If you choose an air-ventilated dryer, make sure to clean the lint filter and follow the recommended settings by the manufacturer. This will help you save energy and prolong the lifespan of your dryer.

Ventilated dryers are typically used for blowing hot humid air over the clothes falling. The air is then blown to the outside. This is a fairly straightforward process, and it works well, but it does draw on a lot of energy. In some homes, the vent may not be accessible or it may not be suitable for installation in a location that is convenient.

In America vented tumble dryers are the most popular choice. However in Europe they are less well-known. Certain countries, such as Switzerland have been banned. They are also difficult to install in small houses and old structures, where the space for a large vented dryer is restricted. In Europe, the smaller machines, 24 inches in diameter, which are referred to as compact vented dryers by the Americans are the best option. These dryers have a smaller drum size and 4-6kg capacity, so they can be easily placed in the smallest of laundry rooms.

Heat pump dryers

The heat pump dryer uses closed loop technology to move energy through a cycle that is self-contained within the dryer. It can be placed anywhere within the house, since it does not require a vent for the humid air to exit. This includes the basement, bedroom or laundry room.

A clothes dryer with a heat pump uses the cooler outside air to dry your clothes, not emitting hot air as vented clothes dryers. This can speed up drying times however, it also means your clothes will feel more comfortable when they're dry.

The air that is pumped into the dryer from the outside is transported through a set fins on the cold side which are heated by electricity. The air then it is pushed through another set of coils that allow moisture to condenses and is drained away. The air that is in the drum after being blown into the dryer contains less moisture. The lower temperature air is more effective at getting rid of water from your clothes and is gentler on delicate objects such as elastics.

This process takes a little longer than the traditional vented dryer, but it's a lot more efficient and is helping to reduce the carbon footprint of your laundry. This dryer is a great option to make use of green energy sources as NYC's electric grid shifts away from natural gas in favor of renewable energy sources.

The resultant dryers are more eco-friendly than the traditional vented tumbler or an ENERGY STAR certified dryer. The operating costs of this type of dryer are also lower. Many families can save hundreds of dollars per year.

Dryers are among the largest energy consumers in the home, so making it more efficient is always an excellent idea. A heat pump tumbler is an excellent way to achieve this, and it will also give you an easier and more reliable drying experience. This is an excellent option for those who want to change from a standard tumbler to one with a heat pump, or even just replace an old, inefficient tumbler.
