A household appliance and a method for drying a damp item via an air current are provided. An air current is conducted in a substantially enclosed dry air channel and is driven by a fan. The air current can flow through a treatment chamber with the item, a cooling arrangement for cooling the air current and removing moisture from the air current by condensation after it has flown through the treatment chamber, and a heating arrangement for heating the air current before it flows through the treatment chamber. The cooling arrangement has a first heat exchanger, via which heat from the air current is fed to a process gas that is conducted in a regenerative gas circulation process, and the heating arrangement has a second heat exchanger, via which heat from the process gas is fed to the air current.
