Sensor Drying - ENERGY STAR dryer models incorporate improved sensors to help you reduce your dryer's energy use. This feature ensures that your dryer will automatically shut off when clothes are dry.
Consider ENERGY STAR Certified Heat Pump Dryers - For even more savings, consider ENERGY STAR certified heat pump dryers-they can save 20 to 60% more than conventional clothes dryers. Consumers with high clothes dryer usage and high electricity rates have the potential for large energy and cost savings. Heat pump dryers take in ambient air, heat it, and then recirculate it in the dryer to maintain the temperature while using less energy.
Savings by the Pair - An ENERGY STAR certified washer/dryer pair will save even more energy and money while doing your laundry. A clothes washer that has earned the ENERGY STAR incorporates advanced functionality to get significantly more water out of your clothes in its final spin cycle than a conventional model. This makes it easier for clothing to dry in an ENERGY STAR certified dryer using less heat. Less heat means energy savings and reduced wear and tear on your clothes caused by over-drying.
