I am thinking about reducing my clothes dryers electrical demand, and in thinking about it I think you have to get away from heating any air.
I suspect incresing the air flow should achieve nearly the same result as heating the air.
Has anyone tried this? I am thinking of using a furnace blower, that rotating blade assy that moves a huge volume of air. I have a dryer that I can use for parts.I think the clothes tumbled into a huge volume of moving air should do the job. Any thoughts?
