A tumble dryer with heat pump technology is a fantastic investment in energy efficiency. It may cost more than standard models, but you'll save a lot in electricity bills.
It's also more quiet and gentle on your clothes, which makes it an ideal option for families.
Capacity
While conventional tumble dryers use lots of heat to extract the water from your laundry, a heat pump tumble dryer absorbs the water using hot air from the outside air, and then recycles and reuses it. This makes them much more energy efficient, meaning you can reduce your electric bill and be kinder to the environment. They can also handle bigger loads than vented or condenser dryers.
You'll find most of our heat-pump tumble dryers come with an A+++ rating for energy efficiency. They're a great alternative to a condenser dryer, as they don't use heat elements and can be placed anywhere in your home. They can dry 8kg in just 2 hours. This is half the time condenser tumblers require to do the same.
Heat pump tumble dryers also are more gentle on your clothes as they operate at lower temperatures. They usually have special programmes for sensitive clothing like woollens, and use moisture sensors to calculate the perfect drying time for each load. Some models feature an eco mode which reduces the temperature to help conserve energy.
The door's large opening on the tumble dryer that is heated makes it easier to load and unload larger clothes. You can also keep an eye on your laundry as it is drying with the internal light, that comes on after the cycle ends. This will help you identify any smaller or forgotten items that may require more attention or reduce wrinkles to make ironing easier.
All tumble dryers made by heat pump require regular maintenance, which includes cleaning out the lint filter to prevent fire dangers. Some models come with an inbuilt lint filter which will remove dust, fluff and other particles automatically. However, most require you to manually remove the lint at least one time per month. This is crucial because not cleaning the filter on a regular basis can lead to a buildup of dust that makes the machine consume more energy.
Energy efficiency
A tumble dryer that is heated is the most efficient tumble dryer on the market. It uses hot air to help in the absorption of water from the laundry, and collects this in a tank which is then heated. The re-heated air is then returned to the drum, helping dry your clothes faster and more efficiently.
They also use less power than a conventional condenser tumble dryer, saving the average of PS330 per year on your household energy bills. They're ideal if you have a large family and require drying loads of clothes quickly.
Drying clothes are at a lower temperature than condenser dryers. This means that your clothes will remain attractive and less likely to shrink. They are also healthier for the earth because they don't emit harmful gases and they are more quiet than other dryers.
Additionally the heat pump dryer doesn't need an external hose connection since it makes use of the hot air within the home to dry the laundry. This makes it much more adaptable and is able to be used in any room of the house.
Comparing to conventional condenser tumblers with a B rating, a heat pump dryer that has an A+energy label can save around EUR 1545 over the lifetime of the product (based on 160 cycles). These savings are made possible by the fact that they consume less electricity and operate at lower temperatures.
When choosing an A+++ tumble dryer heat pump it is important to ensure that it is compatible with your home. Installation instructions can be found on the site of the manufacturer. If you want to be sure that your appliance is installed safely and correctly, you should consider hiring a professional. Be sure to check the lint filter regularly because they could pose an fire hazard.
When it comes to washing your laundry, you need to follow the care instructions on the fabric labels. The temperature, spin speed and time of operation should all be adhered to.

Noise
The tumble dryers that use heat pump technology consume less energy than traditional appliances due to the fact that they recirculate warm air. The tumble dryers with a heat pump are also quieter because they don't use a vent to dry your clothes. Instead, they make use of the air in your home.
Often a tumble dryer heat pump is typically more expensive than a conventional appliance, but the expense will pay off over time when you lower your electric bills and reduce your carbon footprint. Certain models will come with a digital display showing you your energy usage so that you can see the savings you're making. This is ideal for those who wish to monitor their energy consumption and change their consumption habits.
Many of our heat pump tumble dryers have special programmes designed to take care of your clothing and ensure they look stunning whilst being gently dried. This is thanks to the special heat pump technology that circulates warm air within the machine and protects delicate clothing from high temperatures. It's also because of this that these machines have a higher energy efficiency rating than traditional vented tumble dryers, with the majority of them getting an A+ rating.
