Sponsored content
Is it because our clothes line is strong, lightweight and so very portable?
Or because our clothes line can be used in confined spaces?
So many Australians now own a Mrs. Pegg's Handy Line that each customer has their own opinion.
Our parents and grandparents were onto something when they hung every load of laundry out to dry. There are some great benefits to line drying laundry.
If your apartment, village or units have banned outdoor clothes lines citing, they are unsightly, you can still reap the benefits of line drying by using an Mrs. Pegg's Handy Line inside or outside where they won't be seen.
Let's take a quick look into why Australians prefer a Handy Line.
Line Drying Clothes Saves Money
The average household in Australia that chooses to abandon their electric tumble dryer can save more than $300 per year on energy bills. A Mrs. Pegg's Handy Line is less expensive to purchase and operate than a clothes dryer.
Line Drying Clothes Promotes Energy Conservation
Line drying laundry conserves energy and helps to protect the environment by saving precious fossil fuels. If all Australians used our clothesline for a year, it would save 1.0% of the country's total residential output of carbon dioxide, experts say.
Line Drying Clothes Enhances Freshness and Helps Remove Strong Odours
Line dried clothes and sheets smell much fresher than clothes that are tumble dried without the use of additional chemical laundry fresheners like dryer sheets and fabric softener. This is particularly important for those sensitive to perfumes and dyes used in detergents and dryer products.
Line Drying is Gentle on Clothing
Tossing and tumbling in a dryer can cause wear and strain on clothing fabric due to stress on seams and snags from buttons and zippers. Excessively high heat in the dryer can actually ruin some fabrics and cause irreversible damage. Line drying is gentler to fibres.
Line Drying Helps Whiten and Disinfect Laundry
The ultra-violet rays in sunlight help to bleach and disinfect laundry. This is particularly beneficial for white sheets, towels and cloth diapers. However, for dark coloured clothes, excessive sunlight can cause some harm. So, keep dark colours in the shade, if possible, to prevent fading.
Line Drying Clothes Inside Increases Winter Humidity
The colder temperatures and dry air of winter typically drop the humidity level inside homes. Lower humidity can contribute to dry nasal passages which welcome cold and flu viruses. Drying clothes on indoor racks can add humidity to a home's air during dry winter weather.
Line Drying Clothes Prevents Fire Risks
Clothes dryer fires account for a lot of fires and injuries annually. Using an indoor drying rack or outside line will help prevent dangerous fires.
