Heat Pump drying represents a significant advancement over conventional electric heater drying.
While heater-based condenser drying generates heat through electric resistance and consumes high energy in each cycle, LG’s Heat Pump drying uses a closed-loop system that reuses warm air—reducing energy consumption while delivering optimal drying performance and gentle fabric care.
A closed loop system that recycles hot air, reducing energy usage compared to traditional dryers.¹⁾

No external vent or drains needed, allowing safe, flexible placement anywhere in the home.³⁾
Yes, LG Heat Pump tumble dryers are easy to install. They do not require external venting, which allows flexible placement in various home environments. Simply plug them into a standard electrical outlet, making the setup process straightforward and convenient for homeowners, particularly those in apartments or homes with limited venting options.
LG’s Sensor Dry technology optimizes drying time by detecting moisture levels, ensuring efficient drying without compromising fabric care.
Yes, LG Heat Pump tumble dryers are capable of drying bulky items like duvets. Their large capacity drums accommodate larger loads, ensuring thorough and even drying. The Sensor Dry technology adjusts the cycle to achieve optimal results without overheating, maintaining the quality of your duvets and other large items.
When choosing the size of an LG Heat Pump dryer, consider your household's laundry needs and available space. Larger capacity models are suitable for families or frequent large loads, while compact models fit smaller spaces without sacrificing efficiency. LG offers a variety of sizes to ensure you find the ideal match for your home.
LG Heat Pump dryers require regular maintenance like cleaning the lint filter and checking the condenser unit, but no special maintenance is needed. The condenser has auto clean function which no extra manual work required.
When selecting a tumble dryer, consider capacity, energy efficiency, and drying technology. LG dryers feature Sensor Dry technology to optimise drying times based on moisture levels, ensuring ideal results while conserving energy. The Dual Inverter Heat Pump™ in LG's Heat Pump tumble dryers reduces energy consumption by up to 50%. With LG ThinQ™ technology, you can remotely control your LG dryer, making laundry management more convenient. LG's sleek designs integrate seamlessly into any laundry space, enhancing both functionality and style.
A Heat Pump tumble dryer operates by recycling warm air within the drum, meaning it uses less energy and is gentler on your clothes. Here’s how it works:
1. Heating the air: The Heat Pump heats the air and sends it into the drum to absorb moisture from your clothes.
2. Condensation: The moist air is then cooled in an evaporator, where the water is condensed and collected in a tank or drained away.
3. Recycling air: The cool, dry air is reheated and sent back into the drum to continue drying your clothes.
Heat Pump tumble dryers are widely regarded as energy-efficient dryers. Specially, LG Heat Pump tumble dryers are designed with energy efficiency in mind. LG’s Dual Inverter Heat Pump™ technology further reduces energy consumption, offering substantial savings compared to conventional models. This makes LG dryers a good choice, lowering your electricity bills while delivering outstanding drying performance.
