Drying Racks – Only the Best for your Designer Clothes

So often I worry what is happening when I put clothes in a tumble dryer. On holiday I used one to dry towels and holiday clothing. After successive loads the filter was jammed with fibres with different layers of colours like those bottles you often see for sale with different layers of coloured sand.

Clothes airers don’t remove the fibres from my clothing and household items, so they do not lose their shape or their strength. I have noticed that over time continued use of a tumble dryer reduced the useful life of my clothes.

Drying racks come in wall mounted, floor standing or multiway washing line versions. All drying racks dry clothes naturally or if placed above or next to a household wall heater, will have the benefit of secondary heat and warm air drying. Clothes dry naturally without the rough and tumble of being enclosed in a rotating metal drum. Eco-drying systems are energy free unlike the tumble dryer that gobbles up energy at maximum power all the time.

Retractable washing lines come in multiway designs. Five lines, extending to 4 metres, give almost 70 feet of washing line on which to hang the laundry. Although often installed outdoors on two facing parallel walls they are also completely ideal for use indoors, for example over the bath drying.

Specially designed, with the bath in mind, floor standing mini clothes dryers serve as portable clothes horses. They are absolutely ideal for drying outside on sunny days, either on a patio or anywhere in a garden. On wet or stormy days they can be used indoors in a conservatory or anywhere that is convenient.

The heavy-duty versions are often used in commercial and industrial areas where towels are frequently used or in schools, universities, canteens or restaurants. The applications are endless.

For me there are several key reasons for using one of the airers. Not only do I save energy, I become carbon neutral and extend the life of my designer sweaters into the bargain.
