Does this model support a heated dry option? I notice that it was already mentioned that the heating element is there, but oddly there are models that will only use it for heating the water and will not utilize it for drying for whatever reason... null

I don't think the heating element is used for drying, just heating the water.

Hi Matt- This dishwasher has Condensate Dry. Condensate Dry is an energy-efficient drying system on some dishwashers. With this drying system design, condensation will form on cooler surfaces in a warm humid environment. At the end of a cycle, while the dish load is still hot, the stainless steel tub walls are already cooling down and pulling condensation to form on the tub walls instead of the dishes. This provides natural air drying of the dish load. The use of a rinse agent ensures spot and film protection for dishes and assists the drying process. Thanks for choosing GE! -Emelea

It heats the water very hot on boost and has sterilize mode too. This in combination with the jet dry you add just vaporizes any water left when you open the door when it's done.
