  • Drying clothes indoors releases large amounts of moisture, which in the worst case can lead to:

    Condensation on windows and condensation in the home

  • Moisture in walls and ceilings
  • Increased risk of mold

If you have to dry clothes indoors:

  • Use a bathroom with ventilation
  • Ensure thorough and prolonged ventilation
  • Avoid drying clothes in living areas

If possible, use the dryer, which is available in most of our homes.

Please note: If moisture damage is found when you move out, for example as a result of drying clothes indoors, this may result in additional repair costs, for which you, as the tenant, will be liable.
