To hang laundry correctly at home, the first thing to do is choose the right room, whether it’s the living room or bedroom, the kitchen, whatever. Regardless of the room, you should keep the window or balcony open, even if it is cold. Air recirculation is essential.
In any case, it is advisable to choose rooms that are not inhabited during the day, both so as not to suffer too much from the cold and so as not to breathe excessively humid air. In this case, a dehumidifier can be useful because it allows you to dry clothes quickly without making the environment too humid.
Dehumidify the room: the jar method
