Cheapest I could find this energy efficient heat pump tumble dryer from Siemens
With an incredible A++ Energy Efficiency, the Siemens iQ300 Heatpump Dryer is incredible efficient, using just 212kWh of electricity per year, this is the perfect dryer if you are looking to save money and energy.

Does it come with a 5yr warranty or is that additional? Thanks.
They take longer because the heat pump does not generate as high temperatures, but despite the longer time taken the energy consumption is much lower. What I mean is energy per load is less even if the load takes longer.
It's not the machine to buy if you need fast dry times, it's more for gentle, energy-efficient drying.
anybody got info on how much the average 8kg dry would take in a B rated machine and a heat pump machine?
I'm thinking the pay back would be about 2 years for these, and the risk of it breaking with a one year warranty for such an expensive appliance is not making these as attractive, which is a shame.
612kwh x 16p per kWh = £97.92 (if spotted some round the 500kwh Mark so more of a saving)
difference of £64 per annum.
£200 price difference to B rated condenser (thy will be twice as fast, more inefficient though)
£200/£64 = 3.1 years (or longer if you get a more efficient condenser) before you start benefiting from the payback.
these don't stack up at this price point unless my maths is incorrect
Thank you so much!
if you add the Siemens price of ,£399 and add the running costs over five years (£33.92 x 5) the total is 568.60.
looking at the Beko condenser DCU8230W
it has a 561kWh B rating
£229 from John Lewis with 2 yr warranty.
run cost 561x0.16=89.76 per year, times 5 = 448.8. 229+448.4 = 677.80 total cost, less the Siemens total gives a difference of £109.20 over five years or, 21.84 per annum saving.
I went for the Beko as 20 quid a year is worth the Lower investment cost and having something dry twice as quick.
you also have to compare similar load machines comparing a 7kg with a 8kg does not give sensible results. bigger loads use more energy.
Heap pump do not take twice the time, but how long it takes is not that important if you are organized.
the 2 machines in above post the standard cycle comparison is 7kg/1.65kwh/178m 8kg/4.49kwh/129m
Most heat pump machines are often far more efficient at condensing so put less less moisture into the room.this Siemens one is 86%, good heat pump machines are over 90%.
