An airing cupboard is a room found in many British homes. It consists of the boiler for hot water placed below a wooden rack which is used to dry clothes and bedsheets (and can also warm bath towels!).Clothes are placed into it from the drier while they are still a tiny bit damp - and they finish the drying process slowly in the airing cupboard. This mightn't seem like a big deal, but it greatly reduces the changes of shrinking clothes in the dryer. It's like a dry sauna that's just warm enough to finish off laundry.An airing cupboardSo my boiler is somewhere inaccessible (the attic) and I have no interest in moving it solely for a secondary purpose like this.What would be a good alternative? I'm thinking an electric heat source that gives off about the same amount of heat. And the shelves themselves would be a separate woodworking project (you can buy them in the UK, but not where I am located). via /r/DIY https://ift.tt/2RDgEoe
