Abstract: A laundry treating apparatus includes a cabinet, a drum for accommodating laundry, a base disposed below the drum, a motor for providing power to rotate the drum, and a heat exchange unit including a first heat exchanger, a second heat exchanger, and a compressor. The base includes a circulation flow path part through which air in the drum circulates, a compressor installation part spaced apart from the circulation flow path part and configured to allow the compressor to be seated thereon, and a water collection part spaced apart from the compressor installation part and communicating with the circulation flow path part to collect water condensed in the circulation flow path part. The area of the water collection part is formed to be larger than the area of a pump installed in the water collection part.

Abstract: A laundry treating apparatus includes a cabinet, a drum configured to accommodate laundry, a base disposed below the drum, a motor located behind the drum, and a heat exchange unit including a first heat exchanger, a second heat exchanger, and a compressor. The base includes a circulation flow path part configured to circulate air in the drum, a water collection part configured to accommodate condensed water, a collection guide part configured to guide the condensed water to the water collection part, and a water cover located between the first heat exchanger and the collection guide part and configured to support the first heat exchanger and to prevent the condensed water transferred along the collection guide part from coming into contact with the first heat exchanger. The water cover is spaced apart from the second heat exchanger.
