Each year we try to turn off the tumble dryer from November to April. But your holiday cottage laundry is always dried by wind power whether it’s out on the line as here, or in the farm house condenser dryer, powered renewable energy (our turbine with green tarrif back up).
And when we do turn to the dryer in winter, using a condenser dryer means at least the heat is keeping us warm, rather than venting to the outside.
