Drying duvets, blankets and towels, especially down ones, can be a challenge. These garments tend to agglomerate their fibers during washing, and if they are not dried properly, this can compromise their quality and comfort.
Use tennis balls for efficient drying
An effective technique to maintain the fluffiness of these pieces is to add 4 to 5 tennis balls in the dryer. This trick helps to separate the fibers gently but effectively during dryer spins, allowing your comforter, blanket or towel to not only dry faster, but also regain its volume and fluffy texture.
Important precautions during drying
It is crucial to ensure that the tennis balls are in good condition; avoid using rubber balls or tennis balls with the hair layer worn away. The exposed surface can melt due to the heat of the dryer, damaging both the garment and the drum of the machine.
In addition, it is important not to exceed the drying time. High temperatures can overheat the fibers, drying them out and irreversibly damaging them. In Clean&Easy, your trusted laundry a> in the La Bordeta neighborhood of the Sants-Montjuïc district, we recommend that, after a drying cycle, you spread the pieces out so that they finish drying in the air. This not only protects the fabric, but also saves energy and extends the life of your favorite items.
