Condenser dryers remove moisture from the laundry by transferring hot air into an additional condensing unit where it's converted to water.

This gives you more flexibility when it comes to installation locations, but you will need to be prepared for any additional maintenance by ensuring that the drain pipe is in good shape.

Energy efficiency

The hose can't be shared or used in a way that could cause damage.

As with heat pump dryers, a condenser dryer is a type of dryer that heats the air using an electrical element before dispersing the moisture using a tray for condensation. They are usually heavy-duty dryers with higher capacity for wet loads, which range from 6kg to 10kg. They also run more quietly.

Maintenance

Heat pump tumble dryers work differently than condenser or vented dryers in that they don't need external venting for the purpose of removing hot air. Instead the warm air that passes through your clothes is extracted and collected inside the appliance, which then runs it through a condenser that separates the hot water from the cool air and collect it in a tank (sometimes called a reservoir) inside the machine.
