If you're seeking a tumbler that is more eco-friendly and more economical to run, as well as gentle on your clothes, a model with a heat pump could be the one for you.
A heat pump dryer operates by absorbing water from your clothing using hot air and storing it in a reservoir prior to being used again.
They're more affordable to manage
Heat pump tumble dryers use less energy than condenser or vented models because they do not need to heat the air. Instead, they re-use warm air from the previous cycle, and only use electricity to heat the water vapour that they pull out of your clothes. In the end you'll be able to save money on your energy bills and also helping to protect the environment.
Additionally to that, the Adaptive Fan control automatically adjusts the fan speed to save energy and reduce drying time providing an even drying result. This will ensure that your laundry is dried using the lowest temperature that is better for both your clothes and the environment.

They're better for clothes
The heat pump tumble dryer is a breakthrough in laundry technology that takes your regular tumble dryer to the next level. It is the highest standard in energy efficiency, gentle fabric treatment, and long-term cost savings.
You may notice that heat pump tumble dryers generally cost a bit more initially but the money you reduce your electric bills soon increases. Additionally, they dry your clothes with a gentle touch, helping them to last longer.
In a tumble dryer with a heat pump, warm and moist air is blown through the drum. The air is then passed through an evaporator that separates the hot water from the cool air and then pumps it into tanks (or reservoir). The dry, warm air is then re-used within the drum several times during the drying process.
This process uses much less energy than condenser and vented dryers that release the heated air they use to dry into the air. Your energy bills will rise. Tumble dryers with heat pumps operate at lower temperatures to shield your clothes from damage and wear.
They're more clean as they don't allow excessive moisture in the home, which helps to reduce the growth of mildew and mould. It also keeps your clothes cleaner for longer. They also typically have moisture sensors that assist you in determining the ideal drying time and prevent over drying.
They are closed systems that create dehumidified, cooler air. This will keep your home cool and lessen the strain on your heating and cooling system. They are quieter than traditional tumble dryers and can be used in any part of the home.
The tumble dryers with a heat pump are also great since they don't require plumbing. The water is gathered in a tank that can be emptied directly into your sink. This means you can install them in any room of your home, even in a shed or garage. All you require is a power outlet close by.
They're more environmentally-friendly
A heat pump tumble-dryer is more eco-friendly than an electric dryer despite the fact that both make use of electricity to dry laundry. This is because a heat pump dryer makes use of energy to heat up the air that enters its drum, rather than heating the water inside it.
This will lower your energy bills and the amount of energy you consume. So, although a heat pump tumble dryer might cost more upfront than a traditional tumble dryer however, the savings over the long term on your energy bills make it a cost-effective option for your home.
A heat pump tumbler can use up to 50% less electricity than a vented tumble dryer which makes it the most energy efficient tumble dryer available. With the unpredictable weather in the UK, a tumble dryer that can dry clothes indoors is a must for any household.
A heat pump tumble dryer is also more beneficial for your clothes. The high temperatures that tumble drying can cause damage to fabrics. The tumble dryers with heat pumps don't expose your clothes to these temperatures. This means that your favorite sweater will last longer, and your silk blouse will keep its beautiful appearance.
The release of microfibers from tumble dryers into the atmosphere is one of the biggest issues associated with tumble drying. Microfibers are produced when the fabric of your clothes rubs against itself. the tiny fibers could be sucked up by the tumble dryer and then enter our rivers and waterways. According to studies that tumble dry your clothes you can produce 10 times more microfibers every year than when you wash them by hand.
As a result, researchers are calling for tumble dryers to be fitted with filters to stop the release of these microscopic fibers into the environment. The tumble dryers with a heat pump come with a filter that is specifically designed to collect microfibers. This reduces the amount of microfibers released into our waterways and rivers.
They're easy to move
These tumble dryers made of heat are a great choice for those looking to cut down on your energy consumption and have a positive impact on the environment. These models don't create new hot air to dry your clothes. Instead, they reuse the air already inside the machine. They also reuse any water from your laundry and store it in an easy-to-empty reservoir.
Heat pumps aren't as common as condenser and vented tumble dryers, but they're a good alternative if you have space and the right environment for them to operate. In contrast to vented tumble dryers which need to be positioned close to an external wall and connected to a vent pipe that allows the hot air they release to escape into the outside world, heat pump models can be put in any room of your home, so they have a consistent supply of cool air to keep them running efficiently.
They are available in built-in and freestanding models, so there are plenty of options regarding the location you'd like to put your laundry. Heat pump models are also simpler to move when you decide to relocate your home as they do not require ducting or vent pipe connections.
While heat pump dryers do take a little longer to dry your laundry than conventional tumble dryers, they're generally just a few seconds longer. They are also less abrasive to your clothes because they dry at a lower temperature. This is beneficial for those with sensitive or old clothing.
While heat pump tumble dryers do have a higher upfront cost than other models but they can save you money in the long run by reducing your electricity costs and reducing your environmental impact. Look around to find the lowest price on a model that suits your requirements. You'll be glad you did!
