Wood's WLD1

Wood’s WLD1

The energy-efficient drying room dehumidifier of the future is here.

Drying laundry in a short time is expensive as it often requires the addition of heat, which consumes a lot of energy. This is particularly noticeable in apartment buildings where the laundry room is used for much of the day.

Wood’s WLD1 drying room dehumidifier is specially designed for property owners who want to reduce energy costs without compromising on drying time. It is installed so that the powerful fan gently blows the laundry dry from below, where it is wettest. The energy-efficient and environmentally friendly refrigerant (R290) also makes the dehumidification capacity so high that less heat is needed than in many other solutions. The WLD1 is up to 8.5 times more energy efficient than drying room dehumidifiers with additional heating. This makes Wood’s WLD1 the obvious choice for all property owners who want to reduce costs and more easily achieve their sustainability goals by continuously reducing the amount of energy purchased.

Calculation example – How much you can save

Power on current drying system 6 kW minus WLD1 0,7 kW: 5,3 kWh
Estimated assumed operating time per day 10 hours: 53 kWh
53 kWh x 30 days: 1 590 kWh/month
1 590 kWh x 12 months: 19 080 kWh

Estimated savings in Energy:
1 590 kWh/month: 19 080 kWh/year

Estimated savings in money:
Electricity price €0,1/kWh, save: € 1 908/year
Electricity price €0,15/kWh, save: € 2 862/year
Electricity price €0,25/KWh, save: € 4 770/year
Electricity price €0,35/KWh, save: € 6 678/year

Recommended areas of use:

Drying rooms in buildings: WLD1 is a reliable and powerful choice for larger buildings, especially in apartment buildings where drying rooms are used frequently. By installing WLD1, you ensure a fast and even drying process that reduces the risk of condensation, moisture damage, and unpleasant odors – which in turn extends the life of the building.
Gyms and similar premises: In environments where humidity levels are often high, such as gyms, training facilities, or other large premises, the WLD1 is a highly effective solution. It keeps the air fresh and dry, creating a more comfortable and hygienic environment for both visitors and equipment.

High capacity and airflow for efficient circulation

With a dehumidification capacity of up to 48 liters per day and an airflow of up to 800 m³/h, the WLD1 efficiently handles large amounts of laundry and moisture. Blowing the laundry dry with a dehumidifier is not only very energy efficient, but also gentle on the clothes. The powerful fan has four adjustable speeds and dries clothes from below, where they are wettest. If the laundry is hung correctly, it will also dry faster. Wet, heavy clothes, such as jeans, are hung closest to the dehumidifier, and smaller, thinner clothes are hung furthest away. If the laundry is hung over double clotheslines, drying will be even faster.

Effective all year round, even at low temperatures

Wood’s WLD1 is built to work effectively even at low temperatures, with a working range from +2 °C to +35 °C. The environmentally friendly refrigerant gas R290 contributes to dehumidification capacity without the need for heat supply, which reduces energy consumption compared to traditional solutions. As warm air speeds up drying time and carries more moisture, it is recommended that the building’s heating system be connected to the space.

Smart installation gives better results

The WLD1 is installed so that the air outlet is directed along the clotheslines and laundry. For best drying results, the included wall bracket should be installed close to the clotheslines. It also comes with a removable display cover, which allows you to choose whether residents should be able to change settings or whether drying should be done using preset settings from the property owner. The WLD1 is supplied without a plug and must be installed by a qualified electrician. For the easiest possible use, it is best connected to a timer that controls the length of the drying time.

Built to last

Manufactured in Sweden with a durable metal casing and hard-wearing components, the WLD1 is designed for a long service life and minimal maintenance. The cleanable nylon filter protects the dehumidifier by trapping dust and particles from laundry, and the high-quality SMF filter included protects the machine from smaller particles and mould, ensuring optimal performance over time.

Long warranty and easy sustainable use

Wood’s WLD1 comes with up to a 6-year warranty, provided that the filter is replaced once a year and the unit is registered at warranty-woods.com. By registering, you will also receive reminders when it is time to replace the filter, which facilitates maintenance and ensures that the machine functions optimally.

A long-term and effective solution for drying rooms and properties

By using the WLD1, you get a dehumidifier that not only lowers energy costs but also makes the drying process gentler on both laundry and the building’s structure. With easy installation and use, the WLD1 is a natural choice for property owners striving for energy efficiency and a sustainable future.
