Why Rotaire

Why Rotaire? Because it is the only laundry rain cover in the world! You wouldn't use an umbrella without a roof, so why should you treat your laundry that way?

No matter how careful you are when hanging out your washing, a sudden shower can mean that it has to be taken in wetter than it went out. The option is to dry it inside. This causes damp atmospheres and rooms full of wet washing needed for the next day: A NIGHTMARE!

Or you can stick it in a tumble dryer. This will obviously waste valuable electricity heating the outside atmosphere and unnecessarily contribute to the global climate change we should all be addressing: ANOTHER NIGHTMARE!!

Climate change is happening; just look at the British floods of summer 2007 and 2009, the record Scottish rainfall and UK drought (2011) not to mention floods in New Orleans, Bangladesh, China, and Thailand, fires across Greece, California and Australia, vanishing ice caps and rising seas. Climatic disasters are increasing in frequency and intensity.

OUR CONTRIBUTION: a solution to natural, energy free drying

The Rotaire Dryline will pay for itself within the first 6 months! And it avoids the enregy-guzzling tumble drier to lower your carbon footprint. It has also been researched that the cost of tumble drying for a family of four is £100-£150 per year. 

A storage cover is available so that you can simply fold down the dryer and Dryline together and cover them for storage.

We all know that natural drying is best.The Rotaire is the ultimate clothes dryer! The Rotaire Dryline is designed to fit existing rotary airers and rotary washing lines to provide a weather- and bird-proof cover which allows air to circulate freely through the washing. A weighted mesh skirt surrounds the durable polyethylene cover, carrying sideways rain clear of the washing. In summer, the Dryline actually accelerates the drying time so that 2 or even 3 loads can be dried outside in a day!

The rain cover has to be right because WOMEN KNOW BEST about washing! (And a few NEW MEN!) The first Rotaire samples were tested by over 100 volunteer men and women early in '07 to find any problems with the design. Improvements were made as a result and new improved versions are on sale. Although it took over three years of painstaking development and more than a dozen prototypes to get to the current design, no risks are being taken with the product. Development is constantly happening to bring you the most perfect rotary washing line cover to protect against rain. Indeed, it is currently the ONLY laundry cover in the world.
