Some people have issues when they purchase a new LG washer and dryer combo, because they are not used to how it operates. It is important for you to understand the differences between how this appliance operates, compared to conventional laundry pairs. Once you have a better understanding, you are able to get the most enjoyment from your new appliance.
The method used to complete laundry cycles will be different from doing multiple loads all at once. It takes about 2 ½ to 3 hours to complete a single load, because both washing and drying functions are being performed by a single appliance. Most people adjust their laundry habits, from attempting to do all of their laundry in a single day, to doing a load every few days throughout the week. An advantage to doing laundry this way is that you do not have to wait around to transfer clothes from the washer to the dryer. Instead, you start the load and are able to leave it alone. During this time, you can cook dinner, help your kids with their homework, or go out for a nice evening on the town with your spouse.
Another thing to understand with your new LG washer and dry combo is the drying cycle. You have the option to perform both washing and drying cycles all at once, just a wash cycle, or just a drying cycle. In addition, the dryer is completely ventless, so it does not need to be connected to a dryer vent. Instead, it uses ventless condensing technologies to extract water from your clothes and pump the water down the same discharge drain used by the washer.
