He has highlighted a way to dry clothes indoors - without using the heating
As smart meters tally up the pounds this winter, most households are looking for ways to save energy and therefore cash. While we have already seen some clever hacks from various money savers, we are always on the lookout for more, and financial guru Martin Lewis has come up with the latest. - at a cost of just 7p an hour.
The consumer champion was speaking on The Martin Lewis podcast, according to Yorkshire Live, and explained that by using a dehumidifier instead of central heating, you could dry clothes at home for just 7p per hour.Mr Lewis said: "Many dehumidifiers have different wattages, the one I checked out was 200 Watts. Once we it's 200 watts and we know a Kilowatt is 1,000 watts which is how electricity tends to be priced, we know this is a fifth of a kilowatt.
"If a dehumidifier does work for you it will definitely have lower electricity bills but of course you do have the initial capital outlay of buying a dehumidifier and see how that works for you." However, he said: "The problem with the equation for heating equipment is an oven is going to be about 2000W. A microwave, I believe from memory, a best guess explanation, a microwave gives you consistent heat whereas an oven is warming up to full temperature and then topping it up so it isn't running at full power the whole time.
