Heat-Pump Tumble Dryer
This Miele model utilizes a heat pump to recycle hot air, saving energy and keeping your clothes looking good for longer. It's more expensive than condenser or vented tumbler, but is worth the cost.
Similar to condenser tumblers, heat pump models can be set anywhere because they don't need to vent outside. However, they will require a water reservoir that has to be regularly emptied.
They're less expensive to manage
Heat-pump tumble driers dry your clothes using warm air, however unlike condenser or vented tumble driers they do not let the air get wasted. They accomplish this by recycling the same warm air time and again, evaporating water during the process to give your clothes a new look. This closed-loop system uses less energy than traditional tumble dryers, despite taking slightly longer to complete your wash.
Even with the higher initial cost, the expense of running a high-pressure tumble dryer is less than a vented tumble dryer or condenser dryer. The average annual energy bill for a vented dryer is PS1,928. However the same size heat pump dryer will cost just PS59.
This isn't just about saving money, but also reduces your carbon footprint and helps you reduce energy costs and energy consumption. You can also look for functions that let you control the settings of your dryer so that you can optimise its efficiency further.
Some models, for instance one, come with a steam feature which injects water into the drum at different places during the process to ensure that your clothes are in the best condition without burning up energy heating. This can help prevent wrinkles and could assist in avoiding the ironing routine, too!
Some heat pump dryers have an autocleaner and lint filter which eliminates fluff and ensures that the condenser is operating efficiently. This will help keep your machine in good working order for a longer period of time. Many models also have more gentle temperature settings and tumbling movements to ensure that your clothes aren't worn down or damaged by frequent tumble drying in high temperatures.
You should always sort your laundry according to material before you start a drying cycle, as different materials have different drying times. This can help reduce your energy consumption, and make sure the dryers that are faster drying don't ruin your slower-drying clothes. This simple step will help you recover the additional cost of a heater tumble dryer quicker than you would expect.
They're better for your clothes

Heat pump tumble dryers absorb moisture from your clothing using hot air. They dry them after washing. They then move the hot air through an evaporator, which strips the moisture from your clothes, then capturing it as condensation and storing it in a tank. The warm air is then heated again and then returned to the drum, which is where it continues to dry your clothes as normal.
This process conserves energy by recycling hot air already inside your machine. In the end, heat pump dryers consume around less electricity than condenser and vented tumble dryers. The lower energy consumption will benefit the environment and also reduces the cost of your household.
