If your rotary dryer has three arms, fit a band in one hole, miss three, fit a band in the next hole, then miss three. You should have three bands evenly spaced around your Laundry Mac™.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf your rotary dryer has four arms, fit a band in one hole, miss two, fit a band in the next hole, miss two, until you have four bands evenly spaced around the perimeter of the Laundry Mac™.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese bands stay here now so you'll only have to bother with fitting the bands once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow to use your Laundry Mac ™\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHang your washing on the rotary dryer \/ whirligig. It's recommended to hang longer\/bigger items nearer the centre and smaller things towards the outside edge, so the bigger things are sheltered from any driving rain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePop the Laundry Mac™ over the washing and loop a band over each arm. You may need to tighten or loosen the elastic a little to get it the way you want it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProp the Laundry Mac™ in the centre using the telescopic prop so that the water runs off rather than ponding in the middle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I put my Laundry Mac™ out in windy weather?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf it’s gale force winds then it’s not advisable. The Laundry Mac can cope with strong breezy conditions but if the wind is trying to rip the laundry from the line then having a Laundry Mac™ over it is going to make the whole thing take off and land in the neighbours’ garden along with the trampolines and other garden clutter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat if it is horizontal rain?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Laundry Mac™ works best in vertical rain alternated with sunshine type conditions. If you can imagine wearing a raincoat on a really windy wet day then you’re going to get wet legs. But those days when you wear a raincoat and your legs stay dry are the days when your Laundry Mac™ will let your laundry flap and dry outside happily.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat if the air outside is damp?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSometimes there are very high humidity conditions, in which case it’s literally impossible for laundry to get completely dry. However it will still get a bit dryer outside. It’s still worth hanging it out with the Laundry Mac™. You can either leave it outside for a bit longer in case conditions improve, or bring it in a little bit damp. If you’re clever at folding, you can lay it in the airing cupboard or on the radiator airer and it will get even flatter, reducing the amount of ironing you need to do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is the Laundry Mac™ made of?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough incredibly simple, the Laundry Mac™ is made of durable high quality functional materials. The fabric is a breathable, waterproof fabric that protects laundry from rain but enables vapour to evaporate off the damp laundry through the fabric. There are heavy weights stitched into the perimeter of the Mac so it hangs around the side and doesn’t blow about in the wind. And the eyelets are made of quality rust-proof brass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat do I do with my Laundry Mac™ when it’s not in use?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHang it somewhere (anywhere you’d hang a wet coat) to dry then fold it away in the neat little drawstring bag it comes in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy use a Laundry Mac™?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrying laundry in the home can lead to problems with damp as well as being unsightly and inconvenient. Tumble dryers use a lot of energy and are expensive to run. Laundry dries best and smells best when it can flap outdoors, but there is nothing worse than having nearly-dry laundry soaked by an unexpected shower. The Laundry Mac™ protects clothes from rain and enables you to get your washing dried outside whatever the weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy is damp air a bad thing to have in your home?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDamp air causes various problems, including the growth of rot and mould. Mould caused by damp produces allergens, irritants, and sometimes, toxic substances. These can cause health problems or exacerbate existing ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow much water is evaporated from a typical load of laundry?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA typical load weighs around 4 kilos when it goes in and 6 kilos when it comes out – that’s about 2 litres of water that needs to be evaporated out. If it hangs in your home, that is a whole lot of water that needs to find its way out somewhere, or be absorbed into the fabric of the home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chimney Sheep","offers":[{"title":"Regular Laundry Mac™ - No Prop","offer_id":46716616114210,"sku":"ifk1788255887147","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large Laundry Mac™ - No Prop","offer_id":46716616146978,"sku":"url1788255887148","price":45.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Regular Laundry Mac™ with Telescopic Prop","offer_id":46716616179746,"sku":"myc1788255887149","price":50.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large Laundry Mac™ with Telescopic Prop","offer_id":46716616212514,"sku":"umz1788255887150","price":62.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/5260\/9314\/files\/laundry-mac-outdoor-laundry-cover_1.jpg?v=1788255893","url":"https:\/\/buyyourclad.shop\/products\/laundry-mac-outdoor-laundry-cover","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
