I've just sorted out my airing cupboard and have a few shelves free. Do clothes dry a lot quicker in an airing cupboard (there's a hot water tank in there)? I assume they would but there isn't really much space to hang clothes up, as I really want to keep my bedlinen in there. I could fold clothes and dry them on the shelves but then (a) they will need more ironing and (b) they won't dry as quickly. I could take out the shelves and hang clothes up then, but then I'd have to find another space for all my bedlinen.
I have a utility room and the boiler is in there so that may be warmish in the winter but I doubt it'll be as warm as the airing cupboard. Do you think they'd dry pretty well in the utlity room too, so that I can leave the bedlinen where it is? I do feel like I'm constantly doing washing and having it hanging all over the house so I want it dried as quickly as possible.
I'm not really sure what I'm asking here I suppose I'm asking if clothes dry so much better in an airing cupboard that it's worth the inconvenience taking the bedlinen out and finding another home for it.
Very grateful for any thoughts/ideas!
