Washer Dryer Combos

Whether ventless or vented they offer an array of options for your laundry needs. But, there are a few things to think about before you purchase one.

Space Savings

Combination washer dryers offer the convenience of having a dryer and washer in one unit, removing the need to haul large loads of laundry from the basement to the garage or up the stairs. With their smaller footprints they are perfect for apartments, small homes and condos where floor space is limited. Some combo units can be stacked and can be arranged in a row, saving even more space in a cramped laundry room. These compact units are often less expensive than standalone machines also.

Washer dryer combos are ideal for those who live in smaller houses or apartments as they only take up half of the space of a conventional washing machine. Some units can be vented, while others do not. They can be used in areas in which there aren't any vents, like bathrooms and closets.

Most units also allow you to start drying laundry prior to beginning the wash cycle. This is particularly beneficial for those who are concerned about the cost or environmental impact of using dryers for clothes, or who don't wish to wait until the whole load of laundry has dried before moving it from washer to dryer.

The disadvantage of combo washer dryers is that they are less reliable and include more parts. This means that there is more risk of things going wrong or breaking down. Additionally, they typically have smaller capacity than standalone laundry units, meaning that you will have to wash and dry more loads of laundry at one time or run multiple cycles to get your clothes clean and dry.

The system works in the following manner: hot air is forced through the drum of the dryer using an electric heater and a blower. The water from the clothes is then condensed on the drum before being drained to the bottom.

The water that is removed from the washer is used to cool and rinse the clothes, before being pumped into the machine for a second cycle. Some combo machines come with a built-in water heater which helps regulate the temperature of the water for specific washing cycles.
