A Heat Pump Tumble Dryer will work based on the below -
• The dryer must be situated in a room where the ambient temperature is
above +5° and below +35°
A Heat Pump Tumble Dryer may not be suitable if –
• The dryer is being placed in a garage, outbuilding or a room where the
ambient temperature falls below +5°
As a general rule HEAT PUMP DRYERS will work in a room with a
ambient temperature of +5° TO +35°
(The BEST drying results come when the room has an ambient
temperature of +19° - +24°)
Is it worth paying the extra for a Heat Pump Dryer ?
Although the drying cycle takes longer Heat Pumps use less heat compared to
alternaAves. Heat Pumps remove moisture from your laundry which goes into a
tank, all remaining air is reheated using the heat exchanger (not using more
electricity) and is sent back through the drum mulAple Ames unAl clothes are
dry.
The RECYCLING of warm air uses less electricity therefore making it cheaper to
run compared to that of a Vented or Condenser dryers. See below
• 9kg Vented dryer uses around 5.34kwh* for a full load per cycle
• 9kg Condenser dryer uses around 5.2kwh* for a full load per cycle
• 9kg Heat Pump dyer uses around 2.16kwh* for a full load per cycle
