We do not have heated drying in our DWs. It dries using reserved
heat from a superhot rinse cycle. You can hear silence for a
period followed by the sound of the drain opening. The dishes
are very hot. On occasion I have opened it right away to get
something I wanted and burned my fingers, but there is not hot
air period that follows that rinse.


That energy claim is made by many (most?) utilities in the US also.


What does that mean... that my DW does have a hot air dry and I just
don't know it? You'll just have to trust me on that. Water is
heated in small quantities twice and there is no hot air drying. It
is low energy and very low water consumption.


Sorry, I could have chosen a better place for this followup - it wasn't aimed at
your comment specifically, just followed the most recent post. It relates to the
"dishwashers use less energy" claim.
