A plumber has issued a costly warning to anyone who uses their radiators to get their washing dry.
Many people believe hanging clothes to dry over a radiator can be a quick and cost effective way to dry clothes, but he claims that this is a common misconception. It could actually end up costing households more to dry their clothes in this way, reported Daily Record.
Jordan Chance at PlumbNation has explained drying clothes on radiators puts more pressure on your boiler, which means higher bills, reported RSVP Live. He advised: "We would recommend that you stop using your radiators to dry your clothes."
