Installing Condenser Dryer in a Small Apartment Closet: Ventilation Openings & 2x90mm Fans

Question

Hello. As I have a huge problem with drying the laundry, and at the same time a fairly small apartment, I was faced with the problem of purchasing and placing a condenser dryer. Unfortunately, I can only put the dryer in the wardrobe. The question is whether something like this has a chance of...

Then you will open your window. It would be hard to install an air conditioner on this occasion.
The kitchen, as the name suggests, is used to dry the laundry.
I wanted to shine with the knowledge that the bathroom is more intended for this. :wink:

I couldn't know about the showers and the prohibition.

Look for one that has the option of connecting the pipe to the outlet and lead it outside. If the pipe is long, use a fan.

condenser dryers. The air circulates in a closed circuit . After collecting the moisture from the laundry, it flows through a special exchanger, where it is cooled with the air taken from the room. The water vapor contained in it condenses and flows out to the water tank or through a conduit directly to the sewage system. You only need to take care of the efficiency of the ventilation openings - inlet and outlet from this cabinet.

Unfortunately the vent is too far. Besides, only a gravity lift works in the block - as far as I know, no devices can be connected to it. That's what I'm getting at. The only question is how big must this capacity be. Are there enough holes (as many as possible) or do you need fan assistance?

Insert a photo of this dryer, especially from the side of the vents.
In general, the surface area of the openings in the cabinet (top and bottom, inlet / outlet) should be slightly larger than the surface of the openings of the device (inlet / outlet) to minimize airflow resistance, which will have a slightly longer distance to travel (frictional resistance).
You can also insert a supporting exhaust fan for cirka PLN 40.
what, it depends on the flow in the device.
The intake of cool air is supposed to be at the bottom, the outlet at the top, I think it even writes unnecessarily.
Such a device is so good that it also heats the room - the bathroom should be warm.

Unfortunately, I have not yet purchased the dryer. I have the model I want, but unfortunately no photos of the rear part. I absolutely do not want the kitchen to be even warmer, let alone in the wardrobe. In addition, in the manuals of several dryers, I found the information that it should not be installed in a bathroom or room with a shower (?).

A condenser dryer with a heat pump gives off much less heat

I know, but unfortunately the place in the wardrobe is calculated down to the centimeter. The dryer I mentioned earlier is 54cm deep, all with a pump of at least 60cm.
