Humidity from drying clothes is not exactly good for you or your home. That also assumes heating to dry them in the first place i.e. you need to increase consumption to account for the extra cooling from the drying clothes, turns out you may as well use a dryer and get the job done (at least for the cold months).
For comparison though in the summer, drying a washer load takes around 2 hours during the day and maybe 4-5 during the night.
- stavros 5y agoTrue for the summer, we dry them inside in the winter and it does get a bit humid, but it doesn't really get much colder from drying the clothes. The humidity isn't great, though.

That has like 5-10C right now and they dry just fine. Also humid air is the least thing I'd worry about in Winter.
