Electric dryers are household appliances designed to remove moisture from wet clothes after washing. They use electric heating elements to generate heat, which is then circulated through the drum where the clothes are placed. The hot air helps evaporate the water, and a vent or exhaust system removes the moist air from the dryer. These appliances come in various sizes and styles, often featuring multiple drying cycles and settings to accommodate different fabric types. Many electric dryers also include energy-efficient options, which can help reduce electricity consumption. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the lint filter, is essential for optimal performance and safety.
