sorted byI can't make head nor tail of the energy consumption numbers on the listing. Does anyone know how this compares to a bog standard indesit vented dryer? (So basic that ours only cost £99 about 4 years ago)
E.g. worst case scenario the vented one takes about 80 minutes to properly dry a full load, 1) do these heat pump condensing ones dry a full load in the same time? Or longer...or shorter? 2) what would the energy usage be in comparison to a typical vented one? (edited)
Its all sums: a heat pump dryer will take circa 1/3 longer to dry a full load but at much reduced KWH. So, an example might be:
Current drying time per week x KWh x Electricity Cost
Vented: 6 hours x 4KWh x £0.30p = £7.20 per week = £375pa
Pump: 8 hours x 2.2KWh x £0.30p = £5.28 per week = £275pa
So for a typical 6 hour per week house you would save £100pa - return on investment on £400 machine is 4 years providing it doesnt blow up. Lots and lots of other factors like current condition/rising or falling cost of electricity - but all in all you should make your money back ina few years, even more so if your current machine is banjaxed.
Anyone with a decent washer with good spin efficiency will have residual moisture under 50% and really good one nearer 40%.
The specification cycle times times will longer the real world times if you have a decent washer as will the energy use specification.
Set up properly the HP will dry perfectly well.
This machine has a specification full load cycle of 1.88kWh.
(Quite high look for machines that get under 1.5kWh)
A typical 8Kg non HP will be 4.7kWh
That's a significant saving every load.
We have ours in an attached garage that gets under 10c many days in cold winters and works fine.
The annual use on the data sheets is for a mix of full loads and 1/2 loads ( 160 loads)
The other important spec to look at is condensation efficiency look for high 80% and higher.
