The tumble dryers with heat pump are appliances in the household that eliminate moisture from textiles like bedding, clothes, and linen. These tumble dryers are different from vented tumblers as they don't require a vent or hose.

Instead they use heated air to absorb moisture. Then, the water is stored in tanks. The air is then heated to continue drying your clothes.

Energy consumption is reduced

Our tumble dryers are among the largest energy consumers in our homes. They also serve as an excellent illustration of how making small changes to our usage can reduce our electricity bills and minimise the impact of our appliances.

The heat pump technology in this Miele tumble dryer uses a second cooling circuit that cools the hot air that's exhausted from the drum. The air is cooled in this manner and is then recirculated into the dryer. It absorbs heat and condenses it. This is similar to the way an air conditioner works.

Once the heat pump has absorbed warmth and condensed moisture, it's fed back into the system, meaning it can use this energy for future cycles. This is why a heat pump dryer uses less energy than vented models. The model is able to use 50% less energy than a vented tumble dryer similar in size.

The lower energy usage is offset by slightly longer drying times. In general the case of heat pump dryers, they take approximately 50-70% longer to dry laundry over conventional models. This is due to the fact that heat pumps tumble dryers work at lower temperatures, which means it takes longer for your clothes to dry.
