If you can hang your clothing in a somewhat ventilated space, it is usually nicer to not completely dry your clothing, but hang it up slightly damp. This saves not only some energy, but gives you less wrinkles.
Also, if you want to iron something, it better be not completly dry or you have to wet it a little bit for ironing.
- 72deluxe 6y agoThese are good tips but are likely dependent on the humidity of where you live. Here in the UK, since the air can be so damp, it's difficult to dry clothes without leaving it in direct sunlight for the 3-4 days per year that we get it, particularly the further north you go...
- mr_toad 6y agoIf the air inside is cold and humid you may want a dehumidifier, it will save heating costs and reduce mold and mildew.
