Do you have pointers to good sources you've found about that? I've been wondering about exactly this from an optimization-of-the-laundry perspective.

(I've been tempted to just yolo buy one to try it out but installing it in my house is a pain in the rear because of the location.)

As I understand it, many people prefer the heat pump dryers because they are easier to install. Most are 110v and don't exhaust moisture, so you can just shove one in a closet if it has sufficient electricity. You do need to remove the water reservoir and pour it down a drain after every few loads of laundry.

		Oh, that part of the installation is easy, it's literally just physically getting a large, heavy rectangular cuboid navigated through my basement to the laundry room. The last time I brought one in I put a hole in the door (by accident).

		Many have an optional hose to pump to a drain if available.
