My new European heat pump energy efficient tree hugging liberal dryer only heats to about 47c (sorry not sure what that is in futuristic values)
Edit:
but I do understand about clothes. I think it has a lot to do with the decline in the quality of clothes more than anything.
Agitation is quite central to the cleaning process no? Top loaders agitate too? I can't imagine there is much in it
- seszett 2y agoI'm not even sure US-style hot dryers are allowed in the EU? Everyone I know that has one has a low-temperature heat pump dryer.
- switch007 2y agoCondenser dryers? Still available in UK and fairly sure most of EU
- seszett 2y agoAlright, condenser dryers are the missing link I had forgotten between dryers that vent outside like in the US and the modern heat pump dryers.
- sneak 2y agoMy gas powered venting dryer in the US, while massively less efficient than my recirculating condenser electric dryer in Europe, seems to get way less hot and damages my clothing less. I think there is just much less airflow in the efficient ones? Not sure. I’ve washed the identical make/model clothes many many times in both places, as I split my time between the two.
