Do you have a source for tumble drying damaging clothes? I've read the opposite, that heat can damage clothes. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/1999/08/9

  Tumble drying, just like any normal use, contributes to wear and tear on fabrics and seams. If it takes 45 minutes to get a load of laundry dry with heat, but three hours to get it dry without heat, the wear from tumbling would occur four times as quickly. Heat may confound this, suggesting an equilibrium that minimizes both wear from excessive heat and from excessive tumbling.

  That could be tested rather simple, I think. Clean every (fluff) filter until it shines like new. Then wash 10 brand new t-shirts and dry them, repeat a few times. Check the filters, the more fluff, less shirt. Change procedure according to your needs/results.
