Many have turned to using clothes airers to dry their laundry without using the electric - but this process can still take days to dry your clothes.

To make the process even quicker, some are using a money-saving initiative by using electric airers with a dehumidifier in the room.

The logic is simple - airers hang the clothes indoors will the dehumidifier sucks up any excess moisture in the air making for speedy drying time.

But one money-saving whizz has shared his go-to method which includes using an electric airer.

Posting his hack to the TikTok account @- he revealed how to make your towels dry even faster by folding the wings of the airer over the towel once it was hung.

He explained: “If you have a heated electric airer and you’re trying to dry something fast, like a wet towel, that takes ages, what you do is fold the wings over and it will dry a lot quicker.”

This way, both sides of the towel will be getting lots of heat to speed up the drying time.

Some users pointed out a potential safety issue with the hack, with one writing: “It does say specifically not to do this in the instruction, it does work though.”
