With so many options in the market, the process of choosing the ideal dryer can seem confusing and overly complicated at first. While vented tumble dryers and condenser tumble dryers are more affordable options in the short term, heat pump dryers are the gold standard when it comes to energy efficiency, gentle fabric care and cost savings in the long run. Read on to find out six reasons why you need one in your life.
The best energy efficiency for greater cost savings
Unlike vented dryers and condenser dryers, heat pump dryers operate by reusing heated air in a closed-circuit system to dry your laundry. This means you get perfect drying results while consuming up to 50% less electricity than other dryer types. Now you can dry multiple laundry loads or thick fabrics like towels, down, and duvets frequently without worrying about your electricity bill.
Flexibility of placement
As Bosch heat pump dryers expel little hot air into their surroundings and have a condensation unit to store extracted moisture, there’s no need for an exhaust hose to be installed. This means that you can place them anywhere in your laundry room, basement or kitchen — even under countertops or in a laundry cupboard.
Gentle fabric care and protection from overdrying
It can be frustrating to pop your clothes into the dryer, and have them come out a few sizes smaller. To prevent shrinkage from overdrying, the AutoDry feature in Bosch heat pump dryers utilises intelligent sensors to measure the temperature and residual moisture content of your laundry load in the drum, and automatically stops the drying programme once your laundry is dry. Bosch heat pump dryers also ensure gentle fabric care with lower drying temperatures of around 50°C, compared to 80°C for other conventional dryer types.
A dryer that cleans itself
Bosch heat pump dryers with a SelfCleaning Condenser automatically clean the condenser with water extracted during the drying cycle. This minimises lint buildup and deterioration of drying efficiency, while giving you one less maintenance task.
Specialised programmes for all fabric types
When it comes to drying programmes, the cardinal rule is that every fabric should be treated differently. While synthetic fabrics and sportswear require lower drying temperatures to prevent damage, cotton fabrics and upholstery can withstand higher drying temperatures. With specialised drying programmes for an assortment of fabric types, Bosch heat pump dryers give your laundry the delicate care they need. For even more control, activate the “Low Heat” option or the three “Fine Adjust” option levels for perfect drying results.
Have your laundry ready for ironing or immediate storage
For Cotton and Synthetic drying programmes, you can choose between three levels of dryness — Iron Dry, Cupboard Dry, and Cupboard Dry Plus, depending on whether you would like to store your laundry immediately into the closet or have it ironed. For ease of ironing, simply activate the “Easy Iron” or “Crease Guard” option to minimise wrinkles.
With so many benefits, a Bosch heat pump tumble dryer with a SelfCleaning condenser is the clear choice when it comes to energy efficiency, gentle fabric care, and cost savings in the long run.
