A great idea
Users of the Shieling Family
Dryer say it is their best investment
ever. Laundry is protected from rain and dried by the
wind. Creases are blown out, so ironing is cut by a third.
Great value
A basic tumble dryer costs
£200, or £275 if you raise
the guarantee from 2 to 5
years. The Shieling Dryer
at £200 is guaranteed for
10 years (frame) and 5
years (cover) and runs on
sweet fresh air. Simple.
"Great potential savings" say Energy Technology Centre
The
potential for great savings in cost and emissions has just been
recognised by the Energy Technology Centre at the National
Engineering Laboratory - see their report .
One of their case studies was a guest
house on Arran who
use their Shieling Family Dryer to dry very many sheets and towels. Their tumble dryer now only fluffs up
the towels for 10 minutes. They saved 50% of their total
electricity costs and recovered their £200 in
half a
season.
An Edinburgh family now only use their tumble dryer for panics like teenagers' clothes. They recouped their money
in a year.

The Shieling Family Dryer's vital statistics
The Shieling Family Dryer is 2 metres high so you can
walk in, and 2.5 metres long to take King Size sheets.
Sides and width are both 2.3 metres.
As
supplied, your Dryer is movable. You can fold it flat for storage
in a garage or against a wall. When in use it must be well
anchored for your guarantee to be valid.
Later, you can secure it with heavy duty pegs, or concrete it in with the post kit, both optional extras.
The Dryer is pitched across the prevailing wind in a flattish space of about 3 by 3.5 metres. Just click on family frame and family cover for full instructions.
Its easy. Or we'll be delighted to quote to do it for you if you're in Scotland.
Your Dryer in use
There
are 8 lines on each side, 40 metres in all. The lines are 125 mm
apart horizontally, to let plenty of air through your clothes.
Your Dryer can take up to
8 double and 4 single sheets, as well as towels and pillow cases.
Use the shield to deal with slanting and driven rain.
