I live in the EU and have a heat pump clothes dryer. It takes a little longer than hot air, but it doesn't heat up as much and destroy clothes. It also doesn't take special voltage/plug. Any regular plug will work. All it needs is a drain - no waste heat vent required. Oh, and it's super quiet.
- throwaway2037 6d agoThis sounds interesting. What make/model?
- matwood 6d agoIt’s one of the bigger LGs.
- bschwindHN 6d agoHow many microphones does it have on it?
- throwaway2037 4d agoCool, I found something here: https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-dlhc4002b-electric-dryer https://www.lg.com/us/washers-dryers/lg-dlhc4002b-electric-d... LG claims: <<65% to 80% energy savings>> Even if only 50%, that is impressive! That sounds like a pretty good compromise for a slightly longer drying time. The most surprising part to me: The design is "ventless". I cannot imagine how that is possible for a modern dryer. When I was a kid, there was always an outlet from the house that pumped out waste heat from the clothes dryer. What a waste!
- matwood 4d agoYep. It’s pretty wild. And the clothes are not exposed to crazy high heat. If I ever go back to the US, I hope I can find one of these there.
