Now that the weather has started to get colder, drying washing outside (or inside without putting the heating on, at great expense) has become tricky.
The other day, I hung a load of laundry on my airer expecting it to dry by the next day, instead it was still damp and had developed that godawful musty smell, which meant I had to re-wash the whole lot. Sigh.
Admittedly, I could just chuck my laundry into the tumble dryer but with the mounting energy costs, it’s just not something I’m keen to do. Especially as a typical tumble dryer costs 85p to £1.20 per hour to run. Luckily, there is another option: a heated airer. These cost, on average, between 4p and 20p per hour to run – and that’s a hell of a lot less than a tumble dryer.
