Vented Tumble Dryers
Vented tumble dryers are a straightforward and affordable option for drying clothes at home. Unlike condenser and heat pump dryers, which collect moisture from the laundry, a vented tumble dryer removes warm, moist air from the drum through a vent or hose to the outside. This makes them a practical choice for homes with a suitable external venting point.
Do Vented Tumble Dryers Need Ventilation?
Yes. A vented tumble dryer needs to be positioned where the warm, moist air can be channelled outdoors. Before choosing a vented model, consider where the appliance will be installed and whether suitable external ventilation is available. If you’re unsure whether a vented dryer is suitable for your home, our knowledgeable team can offer advice to help you choose the right option, with further guidance available at our Leicester showroom.
Are Vented Dryers Cheaper to Run?
Vented tumble dryers can have a lower purchase price than some condenser and heat pump models, making them an affordable way to add convenient clothes drying to your home. However, they generally use more energy than heat pump dryers, so it is important to consider both the initial cost and ongoing running costs when comparing different dryer types.
When choosing a vented tumble dryer, consider the drum capacity, drying programmes, quick-dry options, sensor drying and energy efficiency. The right capacity will depend on the size of your household and typical laundry loads.
