indesit IWDD7143 - coloured 40 wash+dry

Описание: here is a full length wash+dry cycle in the indesit washer dryer, using coloured 40° with hanger dry.

this dries quite differently to the hotpoint WDL754P, with no distributions, just tumbling. it also performs the thermospin directly upon reaching the required 50°C, whereas hotpoint would wait perform the thermospin after 25 minutes
or when it reached 50°C (whichever was later).

the thermospin reaches 1365rpm, same as the spin only cycle, compared to the final spin's 1410rpm. not really sure why indesit did this but it's still acceptable as 1400rpm so im not too fussed about it. the thermospin holds 1400 for 4 minutes, which is almost twice the length that the WDL754P held its thermospin for.

the cooldown period is really interesting on this machine as it does quite fast distributions, almost spinning the load when it goes anticlockwise. the cooldown is still half an hour long, as with the WDL754P.

energy usage for the wash was 0.571kWh.
energy usage for the drying was 1.3kWh.
total energy usage for this cycle was 1.871kWh.
