Air Drying Clothes Is Better
Does it seem like it is time to buy new socks and underwear every few months? Are holes forming prematurely and elastics falling apart? If this is the case in your household, your dryer is the most likely culprit. Years ago it seemed like socks and underwear hardly ever wore out, as well as clothes in general for that matter, but this is not commonly caused by lesser quality (although some garments are obviously more durable that others). The age of dryers is simply tough on clothes.
The intense, dry heat produced by drying machines is actually bad for materials, and especially elastics. Have you ever considered why there is so much lent collected in dryer filters? People everywhere have come to accept lent as a normal byproduct of drying clothes, but think about what lent really is. Lent is made up of tiny fibers and pieces of your clothing that are being stripped away. No wonder your clothes are falling apart! Dryers can also shrink and stain clothing. Now does this sound like a healthy way to dry your clothes?
Electric dryers are one of the modern conveniences that Americans have built their lives around, corresponding to the need for speed in our busy lives. It seems that most people do not want to line dry their clothes because they think it will take to long and is inconvenient. In some cases, they just don't know how to line dry clothing because they have never seen it done. With a few tips, anyone can hang dry clothes and enjoy long lasting, great smelling clothes.
Setting up a clothesline is simple. All you need to do is take a piece of line and attach it tightly between two stationary objects. Then simply hang each garment from one end to the other. Everyone has seen this in the movies, right? If your homeowners association will not allow clothes lines, or you live in an apartment, you can still hang dry your clothes with a single drying rack and a clothes rod. Drying racks are found at discount or hardware stores. Position the clothes hanger rod over the washing machine or somewhere in the laundry room. Two loads of laundry can be dried on one drying rack and one two-foot section of clothes rod.
The clothes rod is used to hang clothes that can be dried on traditional clothes hangers. Plastic hangers are the usually the best option. Dress shirts, blouses, dresses, slacks and anything else that is usually stored on a hanger should be neatly positioned on a clothes hanger and then hung on the clothes rod. The same is true for drying t-shirts, pajamas, bed linens, towels, etc. The garments on the clothes rod need to be evenly spaced or else they will not be able to dry.
A drying rack is designed to hang all of those things that can't be hung on a hanger. Start at the bottom of the rack and hang socks, underwear, wash rags, and/or baby clothes. The middle usually carries hand towels and smaller garments, and the top rack is great for blue jeans, sweaters, sweats, pajama bottoms, etc. Any open space on the rack can be filled in with whatever is left over. Maybe there is some space between a sweater and some jeans and then a sock or two might hang there. The drying rack itself is mobile, so on those sunny days it can be hung outside, while in the cold winter months it hangs neatly in the laundry room.
Not only will your clothes be in better shape if they are hung out to dry, but you will also conserve electricity in your home. Dryers use an amazing amount of energy, and you are guaranteed to see a reflection in your electric bill. Try hanging out your clothes yourself, and see that it is really not very time consuming or inconvenient.

Foldown Drying Racks - Why You Need a Fold Down Styled Drying Rack in Your Home
A foldown drying rack saves you lots of money. You may not realize how much electricity an electric dryer uses. It uses more electricity than any other electric device in the home! It is quite astounding how much electricity these wasteful appliances use.
By using a foldown drying rack in your home you will save money every time you dry your clothes. You will notice an immediate difference to your bill and over the weeks, months and years this will add up to an awful lot of money.
Plus you'll make other savings on your electricity bill with a foldown drying rack too. You'll find you won't need to iron as much because hanging clothes to dry is a great way to get creases out, without any effort or expense on your part! And if you use an air conditioning unit then it won't have to work as hard once you get rid of your electric drier, because the electric drier causes the air conditioning unit to work much harder than it is supposed to and makes your electricity bill creep higher and higher up.
Electric driers are tough on fabric. Every time you dry it rips tiny shreds off your clothes so they quickly become ruined. Plus the heat of the drying fades your fabric and makes it dull. Clothes will stay in much better condition with a foldown drying rack, because this is a gentle natural way to dry your washing that causes it no harm.
Foldown drying racks cause no harm to the environment either. By not using any electricity, you are helping keep the planet in good nick. Every time you dry you are using nature, unlike the electric drier which abuses nature!
Modern drying racks come in a great range of sizes and colors so it is easy to find one that suits your needs. They can go indoors or outdoors and are a great space saving alternative to the traditional rotary drying line which takes up lot of space in the garden.
Foldown drying racks attach to a wall or post and foldown when not needed so you will hardly notice they are there. Even when they are being used they take up a very small diameter of space and yet provide lots and lots of line space to dry your clothes.
Do yourself a big favor, save money, save the environment and save your clothes, get a foldown drying rack as soon as possible.

Nude Yoga Teachers Use Clothes Drying Racks
A survey of unusual businesses in Manhattan revealed of all things a Nude Yoga Teacher specialising in bold singles or "together" couples, she provides freedom through body awareness. Those yoga devotees who fancy practising their craft in the buff so to speak, will be taught to meditate. They will also learn how to breathe slowly to connect and fully integrate.
Heightened awareness and a deeper form of intimacy are only a few of the listed benefits. Clearly a niche market not for the shy or faint hearted and one that teaches you to find your natural authentic self. A Natural way of thinking is part of the yoga philosophy. Where better could the yoga teacher find this but in a natural process of drying clothes?
Simply installing and using a clothes-drying rack achieves this. These clothes dryers are made of wipe clean materials and supplied ready with fixings to mount on the wall easily. They fully expand to carry full washing loads and allow clothes and laundry to dry naturally. When ready, at different times during the cycle, the already dry clothes can be removed and folded ready for ironing.
The clothes drying system acts as a home tidy providing a central point to hang clothes for every one in the home. The wall mounted airer blends in with its surroundings. When unloaded it folds away to sit unobtrusively on the wall until the next washday.
This fully integrated drying system works 24/7 and provides independence from the weather or the seasons. It is useful for those out at work during the day when clothes can dry naturally, and be ready to collect in the evening.
This independence is also granted to those less able to get around including older citizens or those with disabilities. Wheelchair users particularly appreciate the ease of access it gives them. Their security is not at risk, since the process takes place indoors at all times.

Use Clothes Lines Or Racks - Save Energy and Money by Hang Drying Your Clothes
You should take advantage of the great outdoors when possible by using clothes lines. Your clothes will not only last a lot longer but you save energy and money as well. Another option is a clothes hanging rack. Clothes may not dry as quickly without sunshine and fresh air but a rack will keep you from using unnecessary electricity.
I realize that dryers are more convenient and dry your clothes faster, so if you still choose to use a dryer the best way to ensure it's efficiency is to clean the dryer vent's lint screen after every load. I have read that a dryer with a clogged lint screen can take up to 30% longer to completely dry your clothes. Now I know everyone has heard about cleaning the lint screen, but did you know that according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, over 15,000 fires occur in clothes dryers each year and lint is pegged as the most common cause. You will also want to check the dryer's vent hose and clean it out on a regular basis.
It is also a good idea to wait until you have a full load before doing laundry in effort to save electricity and also try to time this chore and wash and dry clothes in consecutive loads to take advantage of the already warm dryer. Make sure to leave enough room for clothes to tumble or they will not dry as quickly as they should and over drying your clothes wastes energy and will also prematurely wear them out.
One More Energy Saving Tip
Waiting until after peak hours (usually after 8:00 p.m.) to run your dryer and other appliances will save you even more. The power companies will charge more per kilowatt-hour during peak power usage times so wait until the later hours to run your large appliances whenever possible.

Clothes Drying Racks Can Bring Happiness
I hate ironing I feel so brain dead - like a robot. I know it has to be done or I will be faced with a humungous pile growing daily. On the other hand since I switched to using a clothes airer drying system I feel more in control.
When I used a tumble dryer first if all it was really expensive. Secondly the clothes were all completely bone dry. Tumble dryers even the sensor models only 'sense' when the last item is dry, so all the rest is baked! When I place a washing load on the clothes drying rack, I can easily check for dried items ready for ironing.
So instead of having a new batch of dried clothes, which are often difficult to iron, I can have damp or slightly damp, it's really up to me. Clothes airers give me independence in so many ways. Ideal for the elderly and disabled. An easy drying system ready at all times. For those who shiver at the prospect of long dark nights in severe frost, no need to worry! You are completely independent with a clothes airer. The disabled wheelchair user can hang clothes and household items without relying on good weather. An airer can take more than a full load of washing. If you add a fully retractable multi way washing line several loads can be hung at the same time.
The floor standing airer is the nearest to the old clotheshorse. Completely portable to be used inside or outdoors. It carries the largest loads and is available in mini sizes. The portable airer can also be used in the bath (without the water!)
Keeping up a supply of home laundry is a constant chore but when you switch into a natural clothes drying cycle it seems more relaxed, more natural.
You will be surprised how few emergencies you have where clothes need to be dried quickly.
Better quality airers come with a three-year guarantee. Very popular with sports energy mad camping families. Happy heavy-duty use indeed.

Wall Mounted Drying Rack - Top 5 Reasons Drying Racks Save You Money
By attaching to the wall the modern wall mounted drying racks are much more practical than the old style drying racks which were difficult to store and broke and bent easily. Good quality wall drying racks are made from hard wearing, durable material, preferably metal to last a long time.
They are stylish and there are many types and colours to match different homes.
The best thing about wall mounted styles of drying racks is that they will save you lots and lots of money. Here's why:
1 Electricity. Many people do not realise just what a huge amount of electricity the electric drier uses. It is the most expensive electric item in the home. When you consider how often you dry your clothes, you are wasting lots and lots of money on the electric drier. A wall drying rack does a better job and costs nothing on the electricity bill.
2 Drying racks are a fabulous way to keep your clothes in great condition for longer. Electric driers are very harmful to fabric and clothes quickly become ruined. When you switch to a wall or ceiling drying rack you'll love the difference it makes to your clothing bill.
3 Another way the clothesline or drying rack is good for clothes is that by drying indoors you won't expose your clothes to damaging UV rays while they dry so the colour will last longer too.
4 By hanging your washing on a wall mounted style of drying rack you allow creases to drop out of many fabrics as they dry. This means that you won't have to iron as much, so you save even more money on your electricity bill.
5 Air conditioning units have to work overtime when the electric drier is being used. This means that as well as all the money being spent on the drier, the air conditioner racks up the digits on the electricity bill too. By using a clothes airers, clotheslines or drying racks you won't cause the air conditioning unit to struggle.
So there you have it 5 ways a wall mounted drying rack will save you money and keep your clothes in great condition.

Clothes Drying Rack - Perfect For A Reindeer Sleigh
Each year the winter nights shorten. The cold frosts become more frequent. Thoughts turn to Christmas, presents, holidays, family, reindeers, sleighs bells and seasonal things.
Clothes drying racks come into their own during the winter months. We shiver indoors with the heating turned up full blast. Outdoor drying becomes difficult except for those living in warmer southern parts.
Drying racks are quite possibly the ultimate gift. When we meet our friends we often talk about what to give at Christmas. Clothes drying is not usually discussed.
How often during a dinner party does small talk include clothes drying?
And yet every home faces the same problems. Where to put it all! For those with a spacious home it is less of a worry. For those who choose to live in an apartment space is scarce - especially drying space.
The gift of a wall-mounted airer is a gift of space. It gives you the opportunity to use those spaces you hardly ever use. In a utility area, bathroom, kitchen, bedroom or spare room.
The wall-mounted airer expands out to hold the laundry. It later retracts and folds away when not in use. A gift of an airer is a carbon neutral gift. A gift that is energy free and yet enables clothes to dry. A gift that will remind your friend of you - each time they use it.
A clothes airer will remain a fixed part of a carbon neutral home. What a gift!
Already homes are valued on the reduced impact they make on the environment. A gift of an airer is already an eco friendly item. It will become a must have item in the wedding gift list. It will be a key talking point over dinner. Even a fixture on the back of a reindeer sleigh!
