The reliable dryer for apartment buildings with up to 6 units. Depending on the fan setting, it only needs 4 hours for 2 washing machine loads, which means it also meets the requirements of highly frequented drying rooms. The model offered here does not have a switchable heater. With a consumption of 0.18 kWh per kg of laundry, the 415 is the most efficient in the new Bora series.
The 415 is the successor to the "Bora 315". It is visually very similar and identical to its predecessor in terms of compact dimensions. However, it has been technically updated: the new, more environmentally friendly refrigerant "R32" brings improved efficiency. The ventilation can now be regulated in 3 stages, which significantly reduces the operating noise on the lower ventilation levels. It also has a user-friendly touchscreen operation and the option of a WLAN connection.

The Bora has a clear, digital touchscreen control panel, which can be set to various languages (German, French, Italian, English).
Drying programs: The laundry drying program can be started at the touch of a button. The dehumidifier runs until the laundry is dry and then switches off automatically. The pre-programmed target moisture level of 40% is suitable in most cases, but can otherwise be increased or reduced to any moisture level according to your own preference. Logically, the device runs until it can assume that the laundry is dry. Then it switches off. After a few minutes, 1-3 checks are carried out again with pure circulating air to check whether the moisture level has increased too much, meaning that the laundry may not be completely dry. If so, the Bora dries again; if not, it goes into standby. This follow-up check can optimize the drying result, particularly in drying rooms with only a small amount of laundry or with items of clothing of different thicknesses.
The dryer also has a general room monitoring function to prevent mold and odors in the basement. The device switches on automatically whenever the room humidity rises above the mold and odor limit of 60% RH. This humidity value can also be changed as desired. Unlike the laundry drying programs, the dryer never switches off completely in this mode, but only pauses as long as the humidity is right. If the humidity rises again, the drying mode switches back on. Specially for the Bora: The start time can be moved to a later time if, for example, you only want to dry clothes during the off-peak period. It is also possible to set blocking times during which the device never runs. It is also possible for the dryer to automatically switch to room monitoring mode once the laundry has finished drying.
Switchable heating ("H" models): For a small additional charge, the device is also available as the "Bora 415 H". The switchable 1000 W heater speeds up laundry drying in the cold season because warm air can absorb more moisture than cold air. If the heater is switched on, it heats until a room temperature of 18°C is reached. Above 18°C, the heater is inactive, even if it is switched on. The version with heater is therefore only an advantage in rooms that fall below 18°C in the cold season.
Blower and fan speeds: The blower is a radial blower, which is placed in the upper part of the housing. It spreads air relatively widely, but loses power as it goes deeper (in long drying rooms). The Bora is therefore particularly suitable for short to medium-sized laundry lines up to approx. 5 m long, which can be 2 m wide. The dry air jet should blow through the laundry below the clotheslines so that it can swing in the wind. This means that the moisture is released into the room air more quickly and can be intercepted by the dryer. The optimal installation height for the Bora should therefore be slightly below the lines, usually around 1.70 m from the top edge of the device. Selectable fan speeds:
Silent = Gentle / Quiet, consumption and drying time increase slightly
ECO = Consumption and drying speed are in the average range of the specified performance data
Fast = High air flow for fast, efficient drying. The operating noise is clearly noticeable.
Air louvres: The front of the housing is fixed, i.e. the blowing direction or the dispersion cannot be changed.
Direct hose connection: The water extracted from the laundry drains through a hose connection on the bottom of the housing. There is no pump integrated into the device, so the hose must have a constant gradient towards the drain. If there is no drain, the water can of course also be easily collected in a bucket placed under the device. If required, we have suitable inlet pipes and buckets for all Bora models in our range. Air filter: The moist room air is sucked in at the bottom of the front. The industrial, long-lasting filter mat is inserted in a fold-out door at the bottom. It cleans the air of coarse dust and fluff so that the inside of the device remains clean. If the filter material ever runs out, you can order suitable replacement filter mats from us at any time. The new model also improves the hold and opening of the door with magnets.
Wi-Fi:
The WiFi connection allows you to display the BORA status via a browser on your smartphone, tablet or PC. The WiFi connection also gives you access to software updates. Of course, you can also operate the device as usual directly without WiFi. Compact dimensions: The Bora is comparatively narrow and often fits in places in the drying room where other devices are too wide, for example between downpipes or electrical cables. Since all controls are on the front, the Bora does not need any space on the sides or top.
Swiss control:
Its comfort control was designed by Roth-Kippe and is manufactured in Switzerland.
Funny gadget: if you don't want to get used to the new control panel, you can switch to the old design at the touch of a button. The control panel on the display then looks practically identical to the buttons on the previous model.
ambient temperature Technically, the "Bora" tumble dryers can be used down to 8°C. Please note that the drying time for all room air tumble dryers increases significantly the colder the room is. 15°C and higher are optimal for optimum drying speed. The declared drying performance was measured at a room temperature of 20°C.
Scope of delivery and wall mounting
As with all tumble dryers, installation is very simple: A support rail is fixed to the wall with 3 screws, the Bora can then be easily hung on. All necessary mounting material is already included in the delivery: • the plug-in device • Support rail with screws/dowels • Hose connection coupling • 2 m condensate hose • Operating instructions
A suitable inlet pipe with bucket is optionally available if the water cannot be drained directly into a drain.
Both the support rail and the two buffers in the lower part of the device that support the wall are insulated with rubber to minimize the transmission of vibrations to the wall. Due to the high dehumidification performance, we recommend draining the condensate directly into the drain using the hose if possible (hose is included in delivery). If you want to use a bucket, please ensure that it has enough capacity (at least 8 liters) to avoid overflowing while drying laundry. If mounting on the wall is not possible, you will find suitable chassis in our range on which the dryer can be mounted.
assembly service on request
If you wish, we can professionally install the dryer at your home within a radius of 120 km (CHF 210.-), prices for further distances on request. Calculate distance Important: - Sanitary (drain) or electrical (230V socket) installations are not carried out by us and must be commissioned separately by you through an appropriate craftsman, if one does not already exist. - If your wall has internal insulation, we need to know this when ordering, as installation is more complex. The installation prices quoted refer to direct wall installation, i.e. directly on brick or concrete walls without insulation. Additional costs for installation on insulated walls are charged according to the effort involved. If there is no drain, we recommend the appropriate chassis from Roth-Kippe.
