How Samsung Dryers Are Built
The Eco Dry setting lowers heat to save energy and can switch on automatically for Normal or Time Dry cycles, which lengthens dry times and can be mistaken for a heating fault. Source: Samsung US - Clothes are not dry after using Samsung dryer
The Bespoke AI Laundry Combo uses a ventless heat pump to dry inside the same drum used for washing, so there is no exhaust duct to service. Source: Samsung Newsroom US - Samsung expands Bespoke AI laundry line
