Moving air is an excellent ally for fast drying. For optimal results:
- Use a fan: place it in front of your laundry to speed up the evaporation of moisture.
- Create a draft: Open two opposite windows to promote natural air circulation.
- Avoid damp rooms: choose a dry and ventilated place, far from bathrooms or kitchens.
If you have a dehumidifier, place it in the room to absorb excess moisture and speed up drying.
-
Use ambient heat wisely
Take advantage of the natural heat of your home to speed up drying:
- Near a radiator (without placing the laundry directly on it to avoid damaging the fibers).
- In a heated room where the air is dry (avoid the bathroom after a hot shower).
- Outside if the sun is out, even in winter: the wind and light help with evaporation.
Extra tip: Hang clothes on hangers to allow warm air to circulate more efficiently around the fabric.
-
Hang your laundry smartly
Proper drying can make all the difference:
- Space out your clothes: don't layer them, let air circulate between them.
- Hang horizontally: For sweaters and thick fabrics, use a drying rack to prevent them from warping.
- Turn clothes inside out: After one hour, turn them inside out for even drying.
-
The ultimate tip: the hair dryer for emergencies
Need to dry a garment in a few minutes? Use a hair dryer:
- Set to warm air, but not too hot.
- Keep a distance of 20 cm to avoid damaging the fibers.
- Move the hair dryer constantly to avoid overheating areas.
Perfect for small items like underwear or an emergency t-shirt.
