Heat pump systems reheat the cooled air for another cycle. Overall, ventless dryers are more energy efficient than vented.)

Product Manuals

Q: Can this Dryer be Vented? Does it take longer to Dry clothes when it isn't Vented? thanks

A: A ventless dryer works differently than a conventional one. While there is no vent hose hook up, the dryer requires good airflow like all heat transfer devices. I would say it does take longer to dry clothes, but believe they are more energy efficient than conventional dryers which exhausts heat thru the vent. I wouldn't recommend a ventless heater if you have an existing vent, but it works good for me in my condo without one.

Q: My dryer works great, but there is never any water in the collection tank, nor do I see any leaks. I've done about three loads of laundry so far with nicely dried clothes, but no water collected. Is this normal? If not, what could the issue be?

A: All depend what I am drying, towels release full tank of water as well as the bed sheets. I normally dry small loads at a time but always collect good amount. They probably connected the hose the goes directly to the drainage and you don’t have to drain the tank. Which I regret not doing. The tank get hot with the water collected. Don’t seem to be any other logical explanation.

Q: I keep hearing that the LG ventless dryer throws off a lot of heat and moisture/ humidity. Would a dehumidifier unit help take the moisture out of the room ?

A: While the unit does create some humidity it is not that bad. Yes,a small dehumidifier will help but not really necessary. If it's in a small room suggest you install a louvre door to help circulation which helped a great deal. Also suggest you bypass the water going into the collection pan which you have to empty out every cycle and connect the hose into the washer drain. Overall it's a decent unit for a ventless. Good luck.

Q: with the provided stacking kit, can this LG dryer be stacked on top of a non-LG washer?

A: Dani I purchased the washer and dryer set and the stacking is fine. But, LG warns not to stack the dryer on any non-LG machine, indicting the warranty would be voided.

Q: I'd like to put this in a 3'x3' closet, how much heat does it put off? Can i run the unit with the closet door closed or will it overheat?

A: Hard to answer definitively...but I wouldn’t recommend it between the heat and moisture.
