    <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://greenbuildingelements.com/files/2008/02/hydronicdryer.jpg" alt="hydronic dryer" align="left" />The <a href="http://www.dryermiser.com/">Dryer Miser</a> is a huge step forward for one kind of energy sucking home appliance, the clothes dryer.  While clotheslines are even more efficient and lower energy consuming, not everyone can use them all the time.  Climate and weather can limit when a clothesline can be used, and many people live in buildings or sites where line drying is impractical.</p>
<p>Instead of directly heating the air, the Dryer Miser uses a heat exchanger filled with a fluid that is heated in order to transfer heat much more efficiently.  &#8220;Made of durable copper and aluminum, the Hydronic Dryer’s heat technology works by heating up a specially formulated, non-toxic and non-corrosive heat transfer fluid with an immersion element (similar to a water heater). The fluid is transferred to a heat exchanger where it is mixed with air. The heated air is then blown into the dryer’s drum. The result is a safer, highly energy efficient dryer, that dries faster than any other brand available on the market – up to 41% faster!&#8221;</p>
