do tenants perform required upkeep on ventless dryers?
I am considering whether to put in a 240V circuit w/ a vented dryer or a 120V circuit w/ a ventless dryer. The ventless dryer requires a bit more upkeep: you have to empty a water pan every 2-3 loads and clean an additional filter. For those of you who use, or have used, ventless dryers: how likely are the tenants to do the required maintenance? My guess is 'less likely' than w/ a vented dryer since there is more maintenance to do and they are likely not familiar w/ the maintenance that needs to be done, but I'm curious what your experience is. And of course, I would attempt to educate the tenants on how to do the maintenance.
Thanks for the help!
