Disaster scenario: a capital rendezvous in less than sixty minutes, and your favorite jeans still runoff. Outside, a flood is falling. At home, no dryer, and the idea of turning your living room into a laundry room horripiles you. Rest assured: even without a drying program, your washing machine holds an unsuspected power that can get you out of trouble in a snap...
The arrival of winter often turns the drying of the laundry into a real test. Between the grey skies, the endless showers and the biting cold, to dry a simple brew of t-shirts is sometimes a challenge. Worse still: extending your laundry indoors when the air is already loaded with moisture can cause very real inconveniences – stubborn odors, clothes with the perfume of enclosed, and even the appearance of mold on the walls. What about the temptation to use the radiator? To avoid absolutely. Not only does it increase the energy bill, but it does not damage the atmosphere of the room. Fortunately, there is a deconfusingly simple solution to save valuable time, without having to buy an extra and cumbersome device.
Your washing machine has a hidden talent for express drying: a trick that most people still do not know
The surprising technique of towel in the drum
Here is a formidable method, and yet largely unknown: once the washing cycle is over, place your wet clothes in the machine, accompanied by a large clean and perfectly dry bath towel. Then launch a fast spin program, preferably at the highest speed. The result is bluffing: the towel acts like an oversized sponge, sucking the excess moisture from your clothes. In just a few minutes, these come out almost dry! For this little magic trick to work perfectly, be sure to choose a very absorbent towel (microfiber models too thin are to be prohibited) and not to stuff the drum. Leave enough space for everything to turn freely. It is a childish simplicity and a formidable efficiency in case of a clothing emergency!

Smart gestures for a successful drying, even in the rain

The Art of Strategic Expansion
Place your clothes rack in a well-ventilated room, even if it is not heated. The secret lies in the spacing: spread out each garment well so that the air can circulate freely between them. Also remember to turn them over after a few hours for a more homogeneous drying.

If you have a dehumidifier, now is the time to use it. Install it near your laundry: it will suck up the ambient humidity and significantly reduce the drying time. A sizeable ally when the sky remains grey for several days in a row. The next time the rain comes, you’ll know exactly how to avoid the buildup of damp laundry.
