Dehumidifiers With Laundry Mode

Dehumidifiers With Laundry Mode

At National Heater Shops, we provide a wide range of dehumidifiers with laundry mode. These dehumidifiers are ideal for helping clothes dry faster, particularly in colder months or during times where clothes can’t be dried outside.

A dehumidifier works by removing excess moisture from the air. They are used in a variety of different industries and in areas of different sizes. Domestic dehumidifiers are often smaller and are rarely used continuously. They reduce the risk of mould forming and damage due to excess condensation or water in the air, and are often used in homes that suffer from issues relating to high humidity. 

Clothes being left inside to dry can contribute to an excess of moisture evaporating into the air, which is negated by the use of a dehumidifier for drying clothes. Dehumidifiers with laundry mode specifically have settings which allow them to operate at maximum extraction for the recommended amount of time whilst laundry dries. These settings can increase fan speed and airflow and maximise moisture extraction as efficiently as possible. 

Key Benefits Of Dehumidifiers For Drying Clothes

A dehumidifier for drying clothes has multiple benefits. These benefits include:

Energy Efficiency

Dehumidifiers with laundry mode consume considerably less energy than standard tumble dryers. This helps to reduce energy spend and operational costs. 

Protection For Buildings & Assets

By removing excess humidity, these dehumidifier units protect walls, ceilings, furnishings, and stored goods from damp related damage and mould. Whilst a dehumidifier can’t remove already existing mould, it can stop the spread and prevent it from forming. 

Improve Air Quality

A dehumidifier can also help to remove musty odours and mildew that damp clothes often bring. As water is removed from the air, additional irritants and allergens are also removed, which can improve symptoms of asthma, COPD or other complaints that may lead to coughing or wheezing.

Why Choose A Dehumidifier For Drying Clothes?

There are a number of reasons why a dehumidifier for drying clothes could be used in lieu of other drying methods. 

• No heat damage to fabrics

• Lower running costs

• Suitable for delicate or air-dry only garments 

• Effective year-round drying

• More freedom to dry clothes in areas that may not otherwise be suitable

Dehumidifiers With Laundry Mode FAQs

Can a dehumidifier replace a tumble dryer?

A dehumidifier for drying clothes is fully capable of replacing a tumble dryer - especially for air dry fabrics. Whilst drying times may vary, the energy savings and fabric care benefits make it a reliable alternative. 

How long does it take to dry clothes with a dehumidifier?

Drying times depend on room size, humidity levels, load size and type of fabric drying. However, laundry mode significantly accelerates the process compared to natural air drying. 

What is the difference between standard mode and laundry mode?

Laundry mode runs the unit at maximum power and capacity for continuous moisture extraction to speed up the drying process. On the contrary, standard mode maintains a general humidity level. 

Are dehumidifiers with laundry mode expensive to run?

A dehumidifier for drying clothes is generally more energy efficient and cost effective to run instead of a tumble dryer, and offers more variety in what fabrics it can dry. 

Are dehumidifiers for drying clothes suitable for large commercial spaces?

High capacity dehumidifier units are specifically designed for large environments. We have a few models available which are suitable for large clothes drying operations.
