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.)

Samsung’s new Smart Dryer has integrated Wi-Fi that allows you to remotely start or stop your cycle, schedule laundry on your time, and receive end of cycle alerts and more, right from your smartphone.

  • Steam Sanitize+: The Steam Sanitize+ cycle removes 99.9% of germs and bacteria, over 95% of pollen, and kills 100% of dust mites.² Multi-Steam Technology steams away wrinkles, odors, and static.

  • Accessibility (AUI, Braille): Aiding the visually and hearing impaired, your washer and dryer now features audio assistance, playing a different sound for each option, and braille right next to key control panel buttons.

Q: Does the steam function require a water setup? If so, and I choose not to use it, does the dryer still require it to be hooked up?

A: It does need a water hook up. Doesn't have to be hooked up to use the dryer though.

Q: Is a conversion kit required to vent the dryer to the side instead of the rear, or does it come with everything needed for either configuration?

A: You will need to purchase the Smart Choice Dryer Vent Kit that Best Buy sells, or any dryer vent kit. The connection for the dryer vent comes out the bottom of the dryer in the center. The Dryer Vent Kit has two 90 degree elbows included, and they swivel so that you can turn the vent to the left, right, straight up, or any other direction you need it to be. The same applies to the 90 degree elbow that's used to connect to the existing house vent. There is no Vent Kit included with the dryer. Hope this helps.

Q: Is the dryer door reversible?

A: Yes it is. It took me about 30mins to do mine

Q: What is the depth with the door open

A: The dryer is 30 inches from the back near vent to the door closed. The door open is 21 inches open. So you’re looking at 51 inches deep in total. Plus the dryer door is changeable. You can change the way it opens, open to the left or open to the right. Very easy to do too!
