Energy efficiency

Maintenance

Heat pump tumble dryers work differently from condenser or vented machines because they don't require external venting in order to extract hot air. The warm air that is blown over your clothes is absorbed and then passed through a condenser that separates the water from the heated air. It is then collected in a water reservoir (sometimes called a tank) within the appliance.
