The Good News...
Using a Dryer, rather than hanging
up damp clothes to dry – whether
indoors or outdoors – makes sense
for a lot of reasons. Some of these
might surprise you!
A dryer will always do the job; it isn’t
dependent on room temperature or
the outside weather.
A Dryer is versatile; it can dry ‘intelligently’, it has
a program for any type of fabric and can even dry
depending on how quickly you want to have an article
ready to wear! Even using dryers with time and basic
settings allow you to dry different fabric types.
A dryer is simple and quick to use;
it doesn’t need you to spend time
hanging individual items to dry.
A dryer takes
up less room
than a drying
rack, ideal
when space is
at a premium
(especially in
apartments).
Why not install
your dryer
on top of
your washing
machine!
Hot Tip
Try your Hotpoint Refresh
or Airing program to
freshen up your garments
in only 20 minutes.
This uses cold air to help
eliminate bad smells like
smoke or kitchen smells.
A dryer looks neat and tidy; it’s designed to fi t with
other domestic appliances. Clothes spread over
radiators look messy, can cause a damp environment
and can increase energy bills if the thermostat has
to be turned up.
A Dryer helps to leave your laundry cleaner
than drying outdoors. Wet items hung
outside can sometimes pick up dirt and
unpleasant smells.
NO DRYER
Hot Tip
Want to cut drying time? Shake each
item after you take it out of the
washing machine and before putting
it in the dryer. It loosens up the load
allowing the hot air to circulate
more easily. This can help cut the
drying time.
Hot Tip
Don’t overload the Dryer.
Use a maximum of two-thirds
of the space. This allows the
warm air to circulate
fully around the load,
and will help cut
drying time and
electricity costs.
Hot Tip
Hotpoint Dryers offer a big
load capacity so you can dry
a single duvet in just one
cycle.
Hot Tip
An increasing number of people suffer from allergies
of various kinds, and sometimes hanging clothes
outside to dry may increase their exposure to
allergens which may be trapped between the fi bres
of the fabrics.
The special Anti Allergy cycle on Hotpoint Dryers
have the endorsement from Allergy UK, and is
designed to help remove allergens from wet clothes.
Hot Tip
Try your Hotpoint Easy Iron option to help
reduce the amount of time dedicated to
ironing. This helps to relax the fi bres and
makes them easier to iron and fold.
