Abstract: A dryer includes a drum configured to accommodate an article; a blower configured to propel air to form an air circulation path into the drum, wherein the blower is upstream along the air circulation path from the drum; a condenser downstream from the drum along the air circulation path and configured to extract moisture from the air of the air circulation path; and a venting inlet located between the condenser and the blower along the air circulation path and configured to provide a first air pathway between the drum and an external atmosphere.
