FAQs
Vented tumble dryers can be relatively high in electricity usage compared to other dryer types. They heat air to dry clothes and then expel the moist air outside, which can consume a significant amount of energy. While these dryers often come with lower initial costs and faster drying times, their energy efficiency is generally lower compared to condenser or heat pump dryers. If reducing energy consumption is important to you, consider a dryer with a higher energy rating or explore ventless models, which are designed to be more energy-efficient.
Vented and ventless dryers operate differently in terms of handling moisture.
Vented Dryers expel hot, humid air from the drum to the outside through a duct. The air is heated, circulated through the clothes to remove moisture, and then vented outdoors. This design typically results in quicker drying times but requires a dedicated external venting setup.
Ventless Dryers include condenser and heat pump models and do not need external venting. Instead, they condense moisture from the air inside the drum into water, which is either collected in a reservoir or drained away. Condenser dryers use a heat exchanger to heat the air, while heat pump dryers recycle and reheat the air more efficiently. Ventless dryers offer greater installation flexibility but may have longer drying cycles and higher purchase costs.

A vented dryer, also known as a traditional dryer, is a type of clothes dryer that works by expelling hot, moist air from inside the drum to the outside through a vent or duct. It heats the air, which circulates through the clothes, absorbing moisture. The now-damp air is then pushed outside through the vent, while the dry, heated air is recirculated into the drum to continue the drying process. This method helps to quickly dry clothes, but it requires an external venting system, which may limit where you can install the dryer.
Choosing between a vented and a condenser dryer depends on your specific requirements:
Vented Dryers are generally more affordable and have faster drying times because they expel moist air outside. They are ideal if you have the necessary venting setup and prefer a lower initial cost. However, they are less energy-efficient and may not be suitable if you do not have a proper ventilation system.
Condenser Dryers are more versatile in terms of placement, as they do not require external venting. They collect moisture in a tank or drain it away, making them suitable for homes where venting is not feasible. Condenser dryers can be more energy-efficient, but they often have longer drying cycles and a higher purchase price.
Your choice should be based on whether you can accommodate external venting and how much you prioritize energy efficiency and installation flexibility.

The choice between a vented dryer and a condenser dryer depends on your specific requirements:
Vented dryers are generally more cost-effective and have faster drying times because they expel moisture-laden air outside. They are ideal if you have the necessary external venting setup and are looking for a lower initial cost. However, they tend to be less energy-efficient compared to condenser dryers and are not suitable if external venting is not available.
Condenser dryers offer greater flexibility for installation since they do not require external venting. They collect moisture from the air and either drain it away or store it in a tank. Although they often have a higher upfront cost and longer drying times, they are more energy-efficient and better suited for locations where venting is not feasible.
