Ventless dryers (condenser and heat pump) do not require external ventilation. Instead, condensers cool the warm air and drain or store the resulting water. Heat pump systems reheat the cooled air for another cycle. Overall, ventless dryers are more energy efficient than vented.)

  • Owner's manual

Q: Does this dryer have an interior light?

A: No - this model does not have an interior light. I purchased this model without checking the reviews because silly me, I thought interior lights (you get light when you open the door) were standard, but they are not. I would never ever have purchased this product without an interior light. My 2009 dryer that I just replaced had an interior light - I just went back to the dark ages with this model.

Q: I'm trying to find a cable for this dryer before it arrives. Do we know if it has a three wire or a four wire hook up on the back?

A: It is interchangeable and can use either. You have to look at the outlet on your wall where you plug your dryer in. If it’s a 3 slot then it’ll be the 3 prong cord which will also have have 3 wires, if the plug in the wall has 4 slots you’ll use a 4 wire which is also a 4 prong. The back where you hook it up has will fit either.

Q: Can this dryer be stacked with a Samsung front loader washer. I only need the dryer. Thanks.

A: Greg, you are not able to stack appliances from different brands together.

Q: I am replacing a whirlpool duet dryer. Will this fit on the pedestal that I already have? Dimensions look very similar, but depth may be an inch or 2 different??

A: Hi Sadie, each model will have its own matched pedestal so the old one will not fit the new unit. The correct pedestal for this model is either the WFP2715HW 15" pedestal linked here: https://bit.ly/3do4GLS or the XHP1000XW 10" pedestal, linked here: https://bit.ly/3ncfmSo

Q: Where is the lint trap located.

A: Hi Mike. The lint screen is located inside of the Dryer in the front. We hope this helps!

Q: Our 2020 whirlpool 7.4 cu ft 36 cycle dryer no longer heats and drys clothes. Is the a heating element issue and who repairs it? not under warranty anymore.

A: Hello Nappimommy! We are terribly sorry to hear about your concern. We would recommend contacting Amana® at (866) 616-2664. We are available M - F 8 am to 6 pm est. They will be better able to assist you.
