Questions & Answers
Considering GE is all over this, I figure I will ask here. The cool air that is extracted from the "drying process", is this put into the surrounding air space. Could this essentially cool a small area with latent cooling? This is a very neat idea!
Answered by GE AnswersGood day, We appreciate you reaching out and will be happy to explain the ventless drying process. Here are the steps in the drying process: 1.Ambient air inside the unit is heated by a heating element. 2.Process air (heated) enters drum to absorb moisture and dry load. 3.Process air (heated wet) enters the condenser, is cooled releasing moisture. Moisture collects in the tub and is removed from the unit through the drain pump. 4.Process air (cool dry) exits the condenser. 5.Process air (cool dry) enters heater and is reheated. 6.Process air (heated) re-enters drum to absorb more moisture and dry load. There's no hot air that's emitted into the room. Reach out if you have any other questions. Mike@GEA
If there is no dryer vent where does the moisture go? If just out into the home, does that not have potential humidity issues?
Answered by GE AnswersHello, This is an excellent question to ask! Here's a brief explanation of how ventless drying works. Ventless condenser dryers use a dual loop airflow system. The first loop draws in a small amount of ambient air which passes through the condenser for initial heating. The heated air is then pushed into the drum, where it heats up the wet laundry and causes water to evaporate. This air is then looped back into the condenser where it's cooled down - that's the second loop. The air that's already inside the condenser is reheated and sent back into the drum to repeat the process until the clothes are dry. The water that is extracted goes to a tank or an external drain. If you have any additional questions, please let us know. Best wishes! Mike@GEA

I don't know anything about appliances. Would I basically just plug this in like a regular appliance or do you need to hook it up somehow? I know the apartment doesn't have a laundry setup.. how would I add water to it? It's my first apartment.
Answered by GE AnswersHi - Thank you for your interest in our wonderful new Profile washer/dryer combo unit. While this unit offers the convenience of a washer and ventless dryer all in one, it must be installed in the same manner as a traditional washer. This unit does require a hot and cold water supply connection, a means to drain the water from the unit through the supplied drain hose and must be plugged into a 120 volt dedicated grounded outlet. We are glad you reached out to us. Kind regards - Vikki@GEA
