With different types of clothes and materials out there, comes the question of how to best take care of them. While several clothes might be made of the same material, there are several which require special attention and care. Thus, not all of them can be crammed together into either washing machine or dryer and expect perfect results.
Know your clothes
Depending on what type of clothes you have, you can organize them by color or by material and utility. You cannot pair up, let’s say, an elegant, evening satin dress with your day to day laundry. Not only will it ruin your dress’ material, but it will completely destroy the laundry as well. So pay attention to your clothes types.
Dryers and clothes
Since dryers have the same basic functioning principle in mind: use hot air to get the moisture out of the clothes, you might not be aware of how the newer, more recent models bring diversity. Despite keeping the same principle, they are made to accommodate all types of clothes by using different drying programs.
Sure, you can still use one and the same function for all types of materials, but do not expect your clothes to get off without damage, nor your bill to lower. Different programs use different electricity, so, unknowingly, you might have added to your costs, by not picking the right function.
- Air Fluff or Air Dry
As the name implies, it helps ‘fluff your clothes up’. It does not heat the air. Instead, it takes it from your room and uses it, while the clothes are turning inside the drum, to remove dust, lint or pet hair. Especially useful for fluffing pillows, coats or comforters, you can feel free to add some wool dryer balls for a better result.
You can also use it to freshen up clothes that are already dry. Do you want a certain scent to your stashed-away bed sheet? Put a few drops of essential oil on a separate cloth and put it together with your bed sheet in the dryer. In that way, the scent will travel to your sheet and you will get your result.
- Gentle or Delicate
Best used with delicate fabrics, these are usually those clothes made from thin or lacy materials. You can add other garments like rayon or silk made clothes, with beading or sequins and even embroidery. In addition, make sure that other high-performance fabrics will benefit from this cycle, too, as they cannot withstand high heat.
Do not feel obliged to use the gentle cycle with cotton garments, jeans, sheets, towels or linens. They can endure other higher temperatures.
- Wrinkle-Resistant or Permanent Press
This type of drying cycle can be used for almost all the things you wear, like shirts, dresses, blouses, jackets and even socks. Recommended for synthetic fabric made of polyester as well, it can be used for ramie, linen, natural fiber garments or made from lightweight cotton, too.
This type of cycle does not use excessive heat, but, instead, it alternates the medium heat with a ‘cooler’ one, the temperature from the room. In that way, the wrinkles are softened up. However, do not expect not to iron them, as ironing will be necessary. If you want to help reduce it, you can either hang them up as soon as you pick them from the dryer, or fold them neatly.
- Regular, Automatic, or Timed
The regular cycle uses the highest temperature the dryer has. So, depending on how much moisture your clothes have in them, you can consider it. But beware! It can melt decorations, set stains and wrinkle them. Keep in mind, though, that high temperature is harsh on most fabrics, so pick only those strong enough or with precise indication on them.
- Steam
While it does not entirely ‘dry’ clothes, it can be useful whenever you want to refresh them or get aid in getting rid of the wrinkles. That way, you can iron them easier even if you forgot about them for a time.
All in all, depending on what type of clothes you have and use, be sure to pick the right function on your dryer to ensure the safety of your items.
