Business Description
Many dryers consist of a rotating drum called a "tumbler"
through which heated air is circulated to evaporate the
moisture, while the tumbler is rotated to maintain air
space between the articles. Using these machines may
cause clothes to shrink or become less soft (due to loss of
short soft fibers/lint). A simpler non-rotating machine
called a "drying cabinet" may be used for delicate fabrics
and other items not suitable for a tumble dryer.
Tumbler dryers continuously draw in the cool, dry,
ambient air around them and heat it before passing it
through the tumbler. The resulting hot, humid air is
usually vented outside to make room for more dry air to
continue the drying process. This design makes no effort
to recycle the heat put into the load, and thus is considered
environmentally wasteful. Nevertheless, it is simple and
reliable, and therefore has been widely used. Improvised
methods of salvaging this heat for in-home heating, by use
of inline vent boxes equipped with a flapper valve to
redirect moist heated air to indoor areas, will also increase
humidity within a dwelling. Although this may be
beneficial in dry winter conditions, excess humidity from
these devices increases likelihood of mold, mildew, and
bacterial growth inside a home. Indoor venting may also be
against local regulations. Gas dryers must always be
vented outdoors, as the products of combustion are mixed
with the moist air. Building codes and manufacturers'
instructions usually recommended that dryers vent
outdoors. An indoor lint trap kit poses a similar concern of
increased humidity within the dwelling
