Abstract (en)
The present invention relates to a laundry washing and drying machine (1; 61; 71) comprising: an outer casing (2), a tub (3) external to a drum (9) suitable for receiving laundry (10) to be washed and/or dried and an air treating system (5) connecting an air outlet hole (3b) of the tub (3) to an air inlet hole (3a) of the tub (3) for circulating hot air through the tub (3). The air treating system (5) comprises: a condensing device (6) for dehumidifying moist air (H2) coming from the air outlet hole (3b); an air heating device (7) for heating dehumidified air coming from the condensing device (6) and producing hot air (H1) to be conveyed to the inlet hole (3a) and an air circulating device (14; 114; 214) for forcing air through the condensing device (6) and the heating device (7). The air circulating device (14; 114; 214) generates a first air stream for circulating the hot air (H1) through the tub (3) for drying the laundry (10) and generates a second air stream, different from the first air stream, for suction of liquid from the outlet hole (3b) for cleaning the condensing device (14; 114; 214).
