  • the invention relates to a method for treating laundry in a household appliance, in particular a household laundry dryer, and a household appliance, such as a household laundry dryer, according to the preamble of claims 1 and 9.
  • a tumble dryer is known in which by means of an external gas supply line consisting of mist and steam mixture is passed into a laundry treatment room.
  • the known laundry dryer requires the provision of an external mist and steam generating device.
  • the introduced into the laundry treatment room mixture of mist and steam is relatively cold. It is not very clean. Finally, drops form, which can lead to the formation of stains on the textiles.
  • From the DE 37 27 570 is a method for eliminating odors from textiles known.
  • textiles received in a cabinet are subjected to dry steam and odor-binding agents.
  • a device for generating the dry steam is also provided outside the cabinet here.

  • a pressure valve is arranged, with which the line between the steaming device and the nozzle can be released suddenly.
  • the valves are closed and the heating of the liquid begins.
  • the valve is opened to the nozzle and superheated steam flows into the drum, where it causes the laundry to heat up briefly and to remove the residual moisture from the laundry.
  • the supplied liquid vapor and the evaporated water are discharged from the tumble dryer in the exhaust air process.
