Dryer times,

[adam-aussie-vac]

Hey guys, after doing a bunch of laundry these past two days I’ve discovered that regardless if I’m using My 10 amp Westinghouse dryer or my 20 amp Simpson dryer it seems to take the same amount of time for a 5 kg load that’s been spun out 1400 RPM
And I’m not sure if it’s because of the design of the Dry wavy hot air flows around the perforated drum, instead of through the Simpson moves double the airflow and has doubled the heat but the efficiency is the same

Westinghouse slant front dryers were lower air output I believe which is why they dry fairly quickly. In a conversation with Paul up in Canada, he mentioned his Westinghouse slant front dryer could literally dryer 4 pairs of jeans in 20 minutes time with its 4500 watt heat output on a 30 amp circuit.

It would be nice if Westinghouse came out with a 20 amp version for 240 V countries, as honestly when I got that Simpson dryer the previous dryer before it was a GE and it used to dry a load in like 45 minutes, so I thought that this one would actually take 30 minutes to dry a 5 kg load, I’m just thinking would reducing the airflow by half it would double the heat output which would shorten the drying time?
