Electric dryers are household appliances primarily used for the drying of clothes. These devices serve to extract moisture from the clothes, reduce odor levels, and eliminate dust mites present in the fabric.
The primary types of dryers include spin dryers, condenser dryers, heat pump dryers, mechanical steam compression dryers, solar clothes dryers, and other specialized variants. Ventilation methods for these dryers include vented dryers and ventless/condenser dryers. Spin dryers are low-energy appliances that employ centrifugal force to remove water from clothes. They are typically smaller than conventional clothes dryers and do not use heat for drying; instead, they rely on centrifugal force to accomplish this task. These dryers are distributed through a variety of channels, including specialty stores, company-owned stores, hypermarkets, supermarkets, and online sales platforms. They are used by both commercial and residential end-users for clothes drying needs.
