Evening all after 2 days of total rain how do people dry kit as mother does not allow my kit in the house ! So how can I dry kit ? Ta mike

 

My mum is exactly the same. I generally put it in the garage with a small electric heater blasting heat at it. Either than or whilst you mum is out quickly put it in the washing machine on spin then put in the garage/shed.

Yeah got garage I am thinking of trying to make a insulated walldrobe with a heater and dehumidifyer in there as well ! Any ideas if it would work ?

 

Sounds like a fire hazard!!!!!

 

We use a dehumidifier to dry all our gear. It's in the hall in the bothy. The rooms about 10ft x 8ft. It has one radiator in it and provided the guys hang their clothes up on the rail no matter how wet the gear, clothes, coats are they are always totally dry by morning - and I mean dry, not baked solid the way they would be if put on a radiator directly. That can be 10-12 sets of gear hanging in this small room!

I got the dehumidifier from Srewfix 5 years ago for around £120 and still going strong.

 

I got the idea from a golf course who used the same technique. The air needs to be warm for the dehumidifier to work well. Nice dry gear every morning:thumbup:
