Double spin cycle helps clothes dry faster indoors
Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 14 Nov, 13:01 · Archive
Running a washing machine's double spin cycle before hanging clothes indoors can help them dry more quickly.
A specialist in decluttering and organising has recommended using a washing machine's 'Drum/Spin' setting to help clothes dry faster indoors during winter. Nicola Lewis, who has more than 200,000 followers on Instagram, suggests trying a 'Double Spin for the Win' approach. Spin cycles work by rotating garments at high speed to extract moisture without introducing water, with higher revolutions per minute producing drier results.
In her advice, Lewis recommends shaking out clothes before hanging them to remove creases. She also suggests using an airer alongside a dehumidifier to further speed up the drying process. Mark Walker, a laundry specialist from Denver Wash and Fold, has previously recommended dehumidifiers for winter drying routines, saying they remove moisture from clothes faster and help prevent mould and mildew while creating a healthier home environment.
