A laundry appliance comprising: a rotating drum for processing laundry; a door that is operable within a door opening and that provides selective access to the rotating drum; a blower that directs process air through an air path that includes the rotating drum; a heat exchanger positioned within the air path that cools and dehumidifies the process air; a first lint filter within the air path positioned forward of the rotating drum and below the door opening; a second lint filter within the air path downstream of the first lint filter and positioned forward of the heat exchanger, wherein the first and second lint filters (80, 82) capture lint from the process air at respective positions upstream of the heat exchanger; and the first lint filter is angled with respect to the second lint filter; and a filter spray system having a plurality of fluid sprayers that deliver fluid to the first lint filter and the second lint filter, respectively, wherein each fluid sprayer of the plurality of fluid sprayers directs captured lint from the first and second lint filters (80, 82) to a common drain channel, wherein the first lint filter is an angled lint filter having a first edge positioned toward a front portion of a cabinet and a lower second edge that is positioned rearward of the first edge, wherein a portion of the filter spray system includes an angled fluid sprayer that directs the fluid across a surface of the angled lint filter; a bypass member that is biased toward a blocking position and that directs process air through the angled lint filter, wherein fluid from the angled fluid sprayer biases the bypass member to a drain position that directs the fluid and captured lint into a lint drain; and the lint drain is blocked by the bypass member in the blocking position. a rotating drum for processing laundry; a door that is operable within a door opening and that provides selective access to the rotating drum; a blower that directs process air through an air path that includes the rotating drum; a heat exchanger positioned within the air path that cools and dehumidifies the process air; a first lint filter within the air path positioned forward of the rotating drum and below the door opening; a second lint filter within the air path downstream of the first lint filter and positioned forward of the heat exchanger, wherein the first and second lint filters (80, 82) capture lint from the process air at respective positions upstream of the heat exchanger; and the first lint filter is angled with respect to the second lint filter; and wherein the first and second lint filters (80, 82) capture lint from the process air at respective positions upstream of the heat exchanger; and the first lint filter is angled with respect to the second lint filter; and a filter spray system having a plurality of fluid sprayers that deliver fluid to the first lint filter and the second lint filter, respectively, wherein each fluid sprayer of the plurality of fluid sprayers directs captured lint from the first and second lint filters (80, 82) to a common drain channel, wherein the first lint filter is an angled lint filter having a first edge positioned toward a front portion of a cabinet and a lower second edge that is positioned rearward of the first edge, wherein a portion of the filter spray system includes an angled fluid sprayer that directs the fluid across a surface of the angled lint filter; wherein the first lint filter is an angled lint filter having a first edge positioned toward a front portion of a cabinet and a lower second edge that is positioned rearward of the first edge, wherein a portion of the filter spray system includes an angled fluid sprayer that directs the fluid across a surface of the angled lint filter; a bypass member that is biased toward a blocking position and that directs process air through the angled lint filter, wherein fluid from the angled fluid sprayer biases the bypass member to a drain position that directs the fluid and captured lint into a lint drain; and the lint drain is blocked by the bypass member in the blocking position. fluid from the angled fluid sprayer biases the bypass member to a drain position that directs the fluid and captured lint into a lint drain; and the lint drain is blocked by the bypass member in the blocking position.
