Save Energy with a Clothes Line Dryer

A clothes line dryer is a great choice for those interested in preserving the environment and saving money. Others like the feel and smell of clothing dried in the sunlight. For either group, there are different styles of clothes line dryers.

Utilize Solar Energy

Many people like the idea of harnessing the natural solar energy to accomplish a task that needs to be done, but can be done without the use of fossil fuels. By using a clothes line, a person lowers their carbon footprint and decreases the emission of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

Increase Savings

The dryer is one of the most expensive appliances in a home. It costs about ten times as much to run an electric dryer as it does to run a clothes washer each month.

Therefore, using a line dryer can be a solid part of an energy conservation program for a household.

Choose From Different Styles

Clothes line dryers can be indoor or outdoor. Indoor models come as retractable lines, mounted on one wall, then left closed when not in use. They may also be an expandable wood or plastic rack, also brought out when needed. Universal dryers are self standing.

Outdoor lines may be the traditional "T" style with two metal "T" posts and lines between them, retractable "T" models, parallel or umbrella styles.
