Literally everyone I knew growing up in Edinburgh dried their clothes indoors. I didn't know anyone with a tumble dryer. Everyone had ceiling mounted clothes drying rails. Nobody had dehumidifiers.
I imagine it would be a bigger problem in a well sealed building. Fortunately most of the houses in Edinburgh are very leaky.
- selfhoster11 5y agoI'm talking about modern, sealed, double-glazed housing. Older housing was much more permeable, so moisture (and unfortunately heat) could escape to the outside air at will. I'm sure that the cost of running a dehumidifier is at least as low as the cost of running your heating more frequently because of heat loss.
