Dont Tar Them All

With The Same Brush...as often happens here - with no explaination given!!!

The Hotpoint Ultima and Aqualtis models have a better build and so dont suffer loss of condensation as much as the aquarius range....saying that if kept in a cooler room even the aquarius range will operate much better, and if kept clean and fluff free - energy wise even better!!

The best delivery and after care of many brands who undertake the warranty themselves is Hotpoint Indesit Group by a mile at the moment,

cheers, Mike

New drier arrived

New drier has arrived, I am going to shoot all the sceptics down, and all the questionable articles that people read in the consumer magazines. The old say goes the prove is in the eating, used the drier the one thing I did notice is its a damn site more hotter in the drum. This is good as I can reduce the drying time on the timer, Now I hear you say oh that wont last long as the drier ages. Maintainance from me will keep the drier running like new, from regular fluff filter removal each load, to emptying the water container that collects in the plastic unit. It says once a month rinse out the accumulation of fluff from the condenser unit, I would be very dubious about doing that. I dont have a vacuum cleaner that has a blow feature, I feel that would be a safer method of cleaning the fluff out. A regular vacuum clean of the air vent for the air inlet is what they also recommend, the drier is easy maintainable which is how I like things to be

DRYING EXAMPLES 4 LARGE BATH TOWELS WASHED RINSED AND SPUN AT 1400 REVS 55 TO 60 MINS OR LESS IF HUNG UP ON A CLOTHES RACK FOR A DAY OR SO THEN FINISHED OFF IN THE DRIER

6 COTTON DRESS SHIRTS WASHED RINSED AND SPUN AT 1400 REV 35 TO 40 MINS OR LESS IF HUNG ON A CLOTHES RACK FOR A DAY OR SO THEN FINISH IN THE DRIER

HAPPY BEAR NOW

Hotpoinr Aquarius

Excellent Kevin, keep it tip top and it will serve you well, dont forget to register for your 5yr parts guarantee..

I usually de-fluff any dryer whilst I`m passing with the vac, and its very easy to defluff the condenser box, just stick it under the shower and blast the fluff out, this is the one part that will pay to keep it squeeky clean!!!

Enjoy, Mike

De-fluff Condensor Box

Mike

Do you know (with out a word of a lie) I have had that drier in the bathroom 8 years and it has never occured to me to run it under the shower, and me with a power shower too.

But I still think doing it in a hoovermatic is more fun, and I bed you do too, really

Hotpoint Dryer

I have had a Hotpoint Aqualtis condensor dryer for approximately two years now and it is fine! In general, vented dryers seem faster than condensor equivalents, but the Aqualtis does the job as far as I'm concerned. The programme choice is a bit over-the-top, which makes customised cycles a bit of a faff compared to machines with simper controls, but otherwise its fine. So there you go - at least one customer who is happy with a modern Hotpoint appliance...whatever next!

Your top loader needs either a brake fix, or perhaps some slightly more complex work on the transmission - the tub on mine indexes a bit when washing, but its still works fine (and often...).
