Clothes Drying

If you can find the dew point on a weather app you need to be at least 3 degrees above it. I am in the North and always pick the driest and most sunny day on my weather app to peg out. Even in Dec/Jan you can get the clothes partly dried. Make sure your washing line is in full sun in winter. I finish by putting on airers but use two of them and make sure lots of air can get round them, don’t cram stuff on it won’t dry as quick. I also hang underwear on those ikea octopus holders and hang them on the curtain pole with a big S hook so they get the rising warm air from the radiators when they are on. If weather is squally all week I wash then hang in the bathroom on an airer and keep the door shut and do a smaller load as it’s harder to get dry. I found it cheaper to not do economy wash as it uses far more electric and normal wash was 1 hr 45 mins less time! Buy more airers and hang them on the back of doors when you don’t use them. Also open windows regularly to let moistened air out - I do this before heating goes on.

I do two loads a week a few days apart, one of light weighted items and one of heavies. 

I usually put mine (after an extra spin cycle) in the bathroom on normal racks. I leave the extraction fan on for about 24 hours. That plus the heating usually dries it.

I time my loads in with taking showers, but if it does need to come out of bathroom I move it to living room and place in front of radiator. If I feel it's too damp still I put a mini dehumidifier on nearby. 

I live in a one bedroom flat and this has been my first winter drying indoors. There has been some trial and error admittedly, but I've gotten on alot better that I anticipated.

We had really bad damp in our bungalow mainly due to poor wall insulation (before we moved in) so bought a couple of small cheap dehumidifiers which helped but one of them broke at the start of this winter so we bit the bullet and bought a large one, it has transformed the bungalow totally and placed in the spare bedroom with the drying rack dries the washing really well. the amount of water it pulls out is amazing.
It was £140 from Screw*ix and costs around 8/9p an hour to run.
