A 7.4 cu. ft. front load electric dryer with TurboSteam, rated ENERGY STAR Most Efficient. It connects to Home Assistant through LG ThinQ, so a finished load can be announced before the clothes crease.
It is the matching dryer for the WM4000HWA washer, stacks on it with LG’s KSTK4 kit, and vents four ways. Like LG’s other connected laundry, it reports cycle progress and energy use to the ThinQ app.
Home Assistant reaches it through LG’s ThinQ cloud, so it needs an internet connection and a personal access token created with the homeowner’s LG account. It reports its current status, the time remaining, and an event when a cycle finishes or a fault occurs, and Home Assistant can start or pause a cycle. LG’s energy figures arrive once a day, up to yesterday, so they suit monthly totals rather than live power.
