How to dry laundry properly:
We already know that the Japanese often come up with interesting studies and tips that can help us in our daily lives. This time, they have conducted research on drying laundry. The proven trick from Japan is to arrange the laundry in a curved shape. The longest pieces are hung on the outside, while the smallest pieces are placed in the middle of the drying rack. This way, the total drying time is only 4 hours – half an hour less than with another arrangement.
When hanging clothes on a drying rack, it is advisable to place the longer pieces of clothing at the ends and the smaller pieces in the middle. This will create a curved shape, which can shorten the drying time. In a diagram that is shown, the drying of the clothes in a curved arrangement takes four hours, while in a V-shaped or random arrangement it takes half an hour longer.
When hanging laundry, especially with clothespins on a line, you should leave enough space between the different types of laundry to allow for air circulation. For towels and similar laundry, it is best to leave more space on one side than the other, so that more air can circulate through the flaps and between the different pieces of laundry.
In addition to these tips, you can also apply other tricks to shorten the drying time, such as using a ventilated environment, absorbing excess moisture by rolling clothes in dry towels before hanging them outside (especially for wool and heavy fabrics), and using a fan in the summer and the radiator in the winter. By combining these methods, you can significantly shorten the time required for this household task! I would say, try this way of hanging laundry out quickly and tell all your friends about it!
