Nice dryer and thanks for the review. We had a similar dryer back in the early 2000s - just a regular condenser, though. The moisture-sensing was great, since it used the drum as a sensor, rather than just two metal bars. The user manual mentions a third filter in front of the heat pump. Hm...
What does Silk do? Slow, continuous tumble? www.test.de/Waeschetrockn... |

The drum motor is single speed, so it's either on and off - like process fan and the compressor, simple run capacitor. I started it for a few seconds out of curiosity and it pulses the drum motor more frequently, but that might be different over time. |

I took the dryer apart today, checked some components to see what could make the noise. Actually kind of made the noise worse. I'll probably get replacement rollers for the front and a front drum seal as well as a drive belt and swap those next month. |

The process air fan isn't running on the 2 motor tests. My phone mic isn't picking up the droning well I think, but with a load, it comes and goes. It's a really strange noise. It's really deep, really reverberating, and loud, but not obnoxious. Just audible. |

Yes, I can clearly hear that noise. That would probably annoy me.
I think there's a PDF on teamhack where someone flsuhes out one of these AEGs simply with a garden hose. forum.teamhack.de/filebase/file/... |
