A vented tumble dryer is a relatively simple piece of technology with a long and successful track record. These machines work by drawing in air from the room, heating it and circulating that hot air around a rotating drum containing wet clothes. As the hot air passed through the wet fabric it causes the moisture to evaporate and this evaporated water is vented outside as steam. This effectively dries most fabrics quickly and effectively. The tumbling motion has the added benefit of leaving fabrics relatively uncreased and so reduces the need for ironing.
A vented tumble dryer in the UK should be installed in a well-ventilated area close to an external wall or window to allow easy venting of the hot, moist air. Connect the vent hose securely to the back of the dryer and ensure that it has access to the outside air. If the hot, moist air from the exhaust is not properly vented outside you could experience issues with humidity and mould. You should also make sure that the machine is level and follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding electrical connection.
Once you have it installed, maintenance is fairly simple. Remove lint from the lint filter after every use because a clogged filter reduces efficiency. It is also a good idea to vacuum out the area where the lint filter fits because there can be accumulations of dust and lint. It is also important to clean the drum and the vents regularly to prevent build ups of gunk that can impair efficiency.
Apart from that, simply try not to work your dryer too hard. Avoid overloading and give the machine a rest between operation to prevent overheating. Following these simple steps will keep your vented tumble dryer working perfectly for a long time to come.
