Hi could any 1 help my old tumble drier has finally given up. I want to get another and it's a choice between 1 wiith a hose going outside and 1 condensed heat which collects condensation and u just empty a tray now and again. With the condensed one do you still get a certain amount of condensation in the room(as with the hose) or does it cut it out altogether. I would appreciate any advice there is about �100 price difference Many thanks
Buy a gas tumble dryer. Yes, you will have to have an externally vented hose, but they are incredibly efficient vs. electrical dryers. Best appliance I have ever purchased.
In answer to your question, no you do not get any condensation and on the model we have, we can plumb it in to the waste so we do not have to empty it.
On average a condensing dryer takes 20% longer to dry, and if the machine does not adapt to a waste pipe it will need to be emptied every load. If you can vent out, do it, as they are far more efficient. Condensing dryers are only for people who have no access to an outside wall.
