Abstract

Laundry washer dryer of domestic type in which the drying circuit, comprising a suction unit (8), a chamber (11) in which the in-drawn air is heated and the washing and drying tub (2), is open to receive air for drying from the environment through a suction mouth (9), and to expel moist air through an outflow mouth (14). The drying circuit may optionally be fitted with a filter (22) for trapping fluff and connected to the outflow mouth; with rigid or flexible hoses for conveying the moist air out of the environment in which the machine is installed; or with auxiliary equipment comprising a removable filter (26), an air/air heat exchanger (27), a condensation collecting chamber (29) and, if required, a fan (28), to convert the open drying circuit into a closed circuit
