Save energy by the way you dry your clothes

You can save energy and money by the way you dry your clothes. Here is how:

Dry your clothes outside as much as possible.
If you need to use the dryer, spin the clothes in the washing machine first and then use the medium instead of the high setting on your dryer.
Sort out heavyweight and lightweight clothing and dry separately.
Dry consecutive loads to take advantage of residual heat.
Regularly clean the filter in your dryer to ensure maximum efficiency. A blocked filter can add to running costs.
Do not overload or under load the dryer.
