No, the condensing water tank is above the drier cylinder so it's
actually distilled water. BUT from the hot air that is blown through
the clothes you also have fluff from the clothes and dust from
all the used chemistry blown into the condensing system and traces
end up in the water.
Well, given the fact that algae build up in that water if left in
the sun I guess it's too rich in fertilizing substances to be used
on my CP. I would, however, love to get an all-clear signal as just
like I said this drier produces MASSES of this water (three kids).
Best regards, Stefan.
