This is what I had in mind when I posted about going back to solid tubs. All the water that would be in the outer tub could be covering my clothes in the inner tub. |

The dryer was wider than the washer, probably close to 30" for sure. It had a solid drum, heat coming in from a perforated back. Built like a tank, there was a heavy metal box that contained the heating element behind the drum near the floor on the lower right side (facing front) and the exhaust fan was at the upper left rear of the machine. The fan pulled air through the door screen, a duct around the opening and then out the back top left corner. The ducting could be directed to a vent to the outside or through the panel top and into the room.
I had the gas version of this POD, it worked for a while before the gas valve went bad. Low air flow made it a slower but fluffy- soft results. |
