FAQs

What is the total drying line length?

The airer provides a total of 50 metres of drying line space.

Does it come with a ground fixing?

Yes, it includes a metal ground spike and all necessary ground fittings for installation.

Is assembly difficult?

The primary assembly involves securely installing the ground spike. Once the spike is in place, the airer simply slots in and unfolds. Instructions are provided.

Can this airer be used on a patio?

This model is designed for ground installation using the included spike. For patios or hard surfaces, you would need to purchase a compatible separate socket designed for rotary airers.

Is it suitable for very windy areas?

The heavy-duty construction and included ground spike provide good stability. For extremely windy locations, ensuring the spike is sunk very deeply is crucial.

What are the dimensions when in use?

While specific dimensions are not provided, the 4-arm design with 50m of line suggests a generous diameter when fully open. It requires adequate space for rotation.

Does it include a cover?

Yes, a waterproof protective cover is included to keep the airer clean and protected when not in use.

Troubleshooting

Airer is wobbly or unstable.

Ensure the ground spike is sunk deeply and securely into the ground. Check that the airer pole is fully seated in the spike and that all ground fittings are tight.

Lines are sagging.

Check if the lines are properly tensioned. Some models may have a tensioning mechanism; refer to your specific assembly guide. Ensure weight is distributed evenly.

Airer is difficult to fold or unfold.

Check for any obstructions or debris that might be hindering movement. Gently work the mechanism back and forth. Avoid forcing it, as this could damage the parts.

Rust spots appearing on the frame.

Although designed to be weatherproof, minor rust may occur on exposed edges over time. Clean with a soft brush and consider applying a metal-specific protective coating if extensive.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a very large amount of drying space (50m).
  • Durable, weatherproof, rust-proof, and mould-resistant construction.
  • 360° rotation facilitates easy access and good air circulation.
  • Includes a secure ground spike for enhanced stability.
  • Comes with a protective cover for storage.
  • Folds away for convenient storage.

Cons

  • Requires secure ground installation, which may involve digging or using a separate socket.
  • The ground spike needs to be sunk deeply for maximum stability.
  • May be too large for very small garden spaces.
  • Heavy-duty construction means it has some weight when assembled.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify a suitable level location in your garden, free from obstructions.
  2. Assemble the ground spike according to the included instructions. This typically involves sinking the spike a significant depth into the ground to ensure maximum stability. Use a mallet or hammer if necessary, ensuring the spike is vertical.
  3. Once the ground spike is securely in place, place the airer's main pole into the spike. Ensure it fits snugly.
  4. Unfold the arms and adjust the lines to their full extension.

Compatibility:

  • Requires a patch of ground firm enough to securely anchor the ground spike. It is not suitable for hard surfaces like concrete or decking without an additional compatible socket (not included).

Care:

  • Wipe the steel frame and lines periodically with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust.
  • Ensure the airer is dry before folding it and placing the protective cover on.
  • Store the airer with the protective cover when not in use for extended periods, especially during harsh weather, to prolong its lifespan.
