Efficient drying for larger laundry loads
The Bosch WQH246DRGB is a freestanding 9kg heat pump tumble dryer designed to make everyday laundry more convenient. Its generous capacity is suitable for larger loads, while the Cast Iron Grey finish offers a distinctive look. Heat pump technology provides gentle, energy-efficient drying, and the SelfCleaning Condenser helps maintain performance cycle after cycle.
Why choose the Bosch WQH246DRGB heat pump tumble dryer?
Choose the Bosch WQH246DRGB if you want a 9kg dryer with SelfCleaning Condenser technology to help maintain efficient drying with less manual maintenance. AutoDry sensors protect clothes from over-drying, while SpeedPerfect and Super Quick 40 help when you need laundry finished sooner. Home Connect, Smart Dry, a quiet 59dB noise level and a smart Cast Iron Grey finish make it a strong Series 6 choice for busy households wanting efficient, connected drying.
SelfCleaning Condenser for lasting efficiency
Bosch’s SelfCleaning Condenser automatically cleans the condenser up to four times during the drying process. By removing fluff automatically, it helps maintain efficient drying performance and reduces the need for manual condenser cleaning.
AutoDry protects laundry from over-drying
AutoDry uses temperature and moisture sensors to monitor your laundry and stop the cycle when the selected dryness level is reached. Choose whether you want clothes dry enough to iron or extra-dry and ready to fold, while helping protect fabrics from excessive heat and over-drying.
Faster drying with SpeedPerfect and Super Quick 40
SpeedPerfect reduces drying time on compatible programmes, including cotton, synthetics, mix and towels. Simply select the programme and activate SpeedPerfect using the large touch display when you need your laundry sooner.
For smaller loads, Super Quick 40 can dry a small quantity of synthetics and thin fabrics in just 40 minutes. The Half Load option also optimises drying settings, including load and duration, for smaller laundry loads.
Smart drying with Home Connect
Home Connect lets you monitor and control your Bosch heat pump dryer remotely using your mobile device. Smart Dry can recommend the optimal drying programme based on the most recent washing cycle when both the compatible washing machine and tumble dryer are connected to the Home Connect app.
Easy Start provides programme recommendations through the app after you enter the textile type and desired drying level. Voice control is also available through Amazon Alexa, subject to the relevant Home Connect skill being available for your country and language.
Some connected features require the appliance to be connected to a Home Connect Account and a SingleKey ID account via the Internet. Home Connect is a service of Home Connect GmbH. Further information is available at www.home-connect.com.
