Clothes Dryers
Many dryers now come with sensors that automatically shut off the dryer when your clothes are dry. This will save you energy and the wear and tear on your clothes. It will also save you from running up and down the stairs to check on your clothes.

Clothes-dryer categories
Clothes dryers are available in various sizes, which affect energy consumption. Thats why EnerGuide groups clothes dryers according to two categories, enabling you to compare the energy consumption of similar models.

Standard clothes dryers

This category includes all standard-size front-loading clothes dryers.

Compact clothes dryers

This category includes both 120- and 240-volt models with capacities of less than 125 litres. Note: The energy rating for clothes dryers is based on 416 operations per year.
Energy- and money-saving tips
Be sure to read your new appliances owners manual; its full of hints to help you operate your dryer at optimum efficiency. Dont put dripping wet clothes into your dryer; your machine will have to work extra hard and use more energy. Wring the clothes out or spin them in the clothes washer first. Avoid drying partial loads. If possible, sort your clothes by thickness. Dry the thin, quickdrying items in one load and thicker items such as towels in another. Try to start your second load of drying as soon as the first is finished. That way the dryer will still be warm and youll save energy.

Dont leave clothes in the dryer too long. Over-drying not only uses more electricity but also increases shrinkage and wrinkles. Clothes should dry in 40 minutes to one hour. To save money and reduce clothes shrinkage, you can also use your dryers cool down cycle usually the perma-press setting. No heat is supplied in the last few minutes, but drying continues as cool air is blown through tumbling clothes.
