About the Bosch WQH246DRGB

The Bosch WQH246DRGB 9 kg freestanding heat pump tumble dryer uses a SelfCleaning Condenser that is cleaned automatically during drying, helping to keep energy consumption constant. This Series 6 dryer also has AutoDry sensors, which measure temperature and moisture and stop at your chosen dryness level to protect your clothes from over-drying. It runs at 59 dB(A) with noise class A, and the Silent Dry programme keeps things extra quiet.

Drying

As a heat pump dryer it needs no vent hose. It is rated energy class B and uses 0.92 kWh per cycle on the eco programme, where a full load takes 4 hours 25 minutes and a half load 2 hours 40 minutes. Speed Perfect shortens the drying time in selected programmes when you need clothes sooner, and the Half Load option adjusts the settings for smaller loads.

Programmes and controls

The dial covers Cottons, Eco, Easy Care, Mixed Load, Bed linen, Delicates, Hygiene Plus, Sportswear, Shirts, Super Quick 40, Towels, Silent Dry and a timed warm programme. The large LED display shows the time remaining, and you can set the end time up to 24 hours ahead.

Home Connect – monitor and control the dryer from your phone, add Wool in the basket, Woollens finish and a timed cold programme, and use Remote Start.
SmartDry – with a connected Bosch washer, the dryer recommends a programme based on your last wash.
Low Heat – a lower temperature for delicate fabrics such as elastane.
Reduced Ironing – the drum turns the laundry at intervals for 120 minutes after the programme ends.
Reload and child lock – add laundry once the programme has started, and lock the controls.

Size and installation

The dryer measures 84.2 cm high, 59.8 cm wide and 64.8 cm deep including the door. Allow 109.6 cm in depth with the door open; the door is hinged on the right. Condensed water collects in a container with a full-tank indicator, or you can connect the water outlet hose so it drains straight into your waste pipe. You can stack it on a Bosch washing machine of the same width and depth using Bosch's stacking kit WTZ27510, or WTZ27500 with a pull-out shelf; a washer-dryer stack must not stand on a platform.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Bosch WQH246DRGB need venting?

No. It is a heat pump condenser dryer, so it needs no vent hose; the water collects in a container or drains away through the water outlet hose.

Can I stack it on my washing machine?

Yes, on a Bosch washing machine of the same width and depth, using Bosch’s stacking kit WTZ27510 or WTZ27500 with a pull-out shelf. It must not be stacked with appliances from different manufacturers, and a washer-dryer stack must not stand on a platform.

How long does a drying cycle take?

A full 9 kg load on the eco programme takes 4 hours 25 minutes, and a half load takes 2 hours 40 minutes. Speed Perfect cuts the time in selected programmes, and Super Quick 40 dries a small load of synthetics and thin fabrics in 40 minutes.

How much energy does it use?

It is rated energy class B and uses 0.92 kWh per drying cycle on the eco programme. The SelfCleaning Condenser helps keep that consumption constant over time.

Can it dry delicates and woollens?

Delicates, yes: there is a Delicates programme and a Low Heat option for fabrics such as elastane. For wool, Bosch offers Wool in the basket and Woollens finish through the Home Connect app; the wool basket is an optional accessory.

Does it work with my washing machine?

Yes, with a Bosch washer on Home Connect. With both connected to the app, SmartDry recommends a drying programme based on your last wash.

How do I empty the water?

The condensed water collects in a container and an indicator tells you when it is full. Connect the water outlet hose to your waste pipe and you do not have to empty the container regularly.

How loud is it?

It is rated at 59 dB(A), noise class A, and the Silent Dry programme is there for quiet drying.
