Tumble Dryer
- Choose energy efficient tumble dryers.
- Whenever possible, hang-dry the washing in sunlight at the outdoors.
- Removing excess water from clothes or spin drying the clothes at highspeed spin cycle in the washing machine before drying in a tumble dryer can save energy.
- Cleaning the lint filter before/after each load keeps a dryer efficient.
- Do not overload a dryer as this will block the airflow and drastically reduce drying efficiency. Sort clothes and other items according to their thickness and dry them in batches.
- Purchase tumble dryers with moisture sensors and automatic drying programme to avoid over-drying.
- Remove and fold or hang all items as soon as the dryer stops to prevent wrinkles and reduce ironing requirements.
