Re: Hygena APM2223 Extractor Fan

Dave, to be honest a complete unit might be better than just replacing one motor. Can you give me a price for both?
Cheers

Re: Ariston Margherita 2000 A1435

My machine has exactly the same problem. Has any new info surfaced in the month since this was first posted?

Does anybody have circuit diagrams for this machine they would care to share?

Thanks

Hi: Icemaiden:

I think the heat pump clothes dryer problem is a complex problem to answer. I will try to add my comments because i am working on this product.

1. How many energy the heat pump clothes dryer can save?
Right now they only can save 50{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of energy. I think the heat pump clothes dryer can save another 50{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of energy using current technologies. In the future it is even possible to save another 50{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}. The current heat pump dryer is not properly designed and only can save 50{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}.

2. Why it is so expensive?
Current heat pump dryer are very expensive. It is not normal because the cheapest air conditioner costs about less than $100. Normally you can spend $400 to buy an very good air conditioner. The reason is heat pump dryer has to overcome a lot of problem because of their bad design.

3. Are there any problem for heat pump clothes dryer?
I think the most difficult problem is lint. They will add to heat transfer and decrese the heat transfer capability quickly. It is also very difficult to clean up. Current heat pump dryer can’t avoid this problem.

So I think you may need to contact the manufactuer such as AEG (they once producs one real dryer but stop sell now) and other company. You will know if my comments are right.

I think the dryer problem is very interest. Why?
US, Europe, japan, china (big city) ‘s washer saturate rate is near 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}.
As for dryer, US is near 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}, Europe is 29{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}, Japan is 25{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}, china (big city) is below 5 or 3 or 1.

The key is that the dryer will use a lot of energy and clothes line will use zero energy.

To solve this problem the dryer’s energy consumption has to be greatly reduced.

I will say it is possible and easy. The heat pump technology is one to make it possible but not eay way.

I just hope those information are useful for you.

Re: Firenzi FIDW41 Not filling

Wow! Thanks guys. Ok, 90{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} sure its a Zanussi – Mainly because the Magnet guy said at the time that it was a Zanussi hybrid as well.

I will follow the double-chamber checks and have a good look. I have been giving it strong vinegar washes etc. However, not sure how this will help as it is the ‘water inlet’ that is the problem – it aint filling.

What does the pressure chamber/s do in a dishwasher? In a coffee maker it is used to build the steam pressure, but this model diskwasher only goes up to 65C – so tghe programme says.

I will indeed take pictures of the inside and underneath and get them e-mailed tommorrow.

Thanks guys!

Thanks for the reply…

I’ll contact them tomorrow…

Not quite sure what was being washed as the misus was doing it. Will have a look at the outlet to make sure it’s okay.

Re: Philips fridge/freezer – worth replacing seal? or gluin

Sorry, one final daft question – honest. The sealant I’ve got over from when I did my bathroom is called a ‘polymer sealant’ – is this the same as/as good as a silicone sealant. Presumably is also OK for having near food, as it can be used on kitchen worktops too…

Re: Philips fridge/freezer – worth replacing seal? or gluin

Cool – I think I’ve even got some left-over from when I did my bathroom… Presumably to use it like a glue I just put a very thin layer on my fridge?

Cheers,
