Hello,
In the current kitchen trash chute thread, I came across the following quote:

You always have to clean these from time to time, since something will occasionally spill or drip inside.
Wouldn’t a chute around the corner be more effective?

Regarding laundry chutes, how do you handle hygiene? Are the pipes always made of antibacterial metal, or how do you clean them?
Nothing typically spills outside, but it’s also not the case that they are completely clean or free of dirt inside.

Thank you very much for your suggestions.

After Christmas, this issue usually isn’t caused by the dryer...
You already posted that yesterday, forgetful?

I find a laundry chute quite practical for everyday use, as it helps avoid carrying loads across distances.
We don’t have one because, due to the design of our house, there are no long walking routes anyway.

Wow, you guys are really something.

No, we just built a “small” house. One bedroom, one bathroom, one guest toilet, and an entrance area with a washer and dryer. The eastern part of the building is occupied by the “children,” each with their own apartment.

No idea why anyone would think to dry the cupboard. The last bit of moisture takes the most electricity and is also the hottest.

That doesn’t make sense. The dryer saves me work; if I have to hang clothes anyway, why not just skip the dryer?

Actually, it does make sense: if you pre-treat to “pareto dry,” the air drying finishes more quickly.
