Smart Energy Tip - Dry your Laundry Outside

Dry your laundry outside OR in a clothes dryer to keep moisture outside*.

When drying your laundry, here's some great advice:

• Dry clothes outside or in a clothes dryer that is vented to the outside. Try not to use indoor airing racks or clothes dryers that vent into your house - the moisture in the clothes will end up in your home.
• The average laundry load is 6kg, so that's potentially 6 litres of moisture in your home. Damp homes promote mould and dust mites which can cause respiratory problems, so keeping your home dry is important.

Make sure your home is as energy efficient as possible - contact us today to book your free home energy assessment to find out how.
