phungo Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 I have never seen anyone has a clothes dryer in thailand. I don't like how my clothes are all crunchy after it is air dried. why don't Thais like having a clothes dryer? where can I buy one? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard_smith237 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 For real??? you mean a tumble drier??? Every homePro or Department store with an electronics / power-mall section. (At least in Bangkok anyway - Driers are easy to find. I've been using them for about 10 years). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olivierf20 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Clothes dryers, really crumple your clothes, and they also damage clothes... You could get a washer/dryer, i got a Samsung one that washes 10kg, and dries 7Kg... Can get these in Homepro or Power Buy, think i also saw there stand alone dryers, but they were pricy, might be better to get a combo machine :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post metempsychotic Posted September 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2019 (edited) I never understand post like this, any major appliance seller in thailand has dryers for sale. simple searches of both powerbuy and homepro thailand and even lazada show plenty of dryers for sale. you really cant have put much effort in, of you would have a dryer by now.

NaamGin Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 We bought a combination washer / dryer from Homepro. Great for the rainy season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilotman Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Brought ours with us from the UK, seemed superfluous at the time, but it was a good move. It gets heavy use during this time of the year. I too have seen them for sale in Home Pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackJack Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 (edited) OK I am told the humidity in the air makes drying the clothes take longer Unless using a vented dryer = electric cost are higher and needs a pipe to drain? A pump dryer = dont know anyone with one but rates AAA +++ for energy consumption? A condenser dryer = rated B for energy but the condenser has issues with the humidity in the air? The ones i have seen have all sorts of gadgets and not sure what is best Any suggestions from personal use in Pattaya area or other ?

BlackJack Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Heat pump In this way not only does the dryer avoid the need for ducting, but it also conserves much of its heat within the dryer instead of exhausting it into the surroundings. Heat pump dryers can, therefore, use up to 50% less energy required by either condensation or conventional electric dryers. Heat pump dryers use about a 1kWh (kilowatt hour) of energy to dry an average load instead of 2 for a condenser dryer, or from 3 to 9, for a conventional electric dryer.[7][8][6] Domestic heat pump dryers are designed to work in typical ambient temperatures from 5 to 30 °C. Below 5 °C, drying times significantly increase. As with condensation dryers, the heat exchanger will not dry the internal air to as low a level of humidity as the typical ambient air. With respect to ambient air, the higher humidity of the air used to dry the clothes has the effect of increasing drying times; however, because heat pump dryers conserve much of the heat of the air they use, the already-hot air can be cycled more quickly, possibly leading to shorter drying times than tumble dryers, depending on the model.
