FAQs

Can I hang this on a radiator that is turned on?

Yes, the airer is designed for this. However, ensure the items are not touching the radiator surface directly if the radiator gets extremely hot.

How much weight can it hold?

It is intended for light to medium laundry loads such as socks, underwear, and hand towels. Avoid overloading with heavy, water-logged items.

Does it need any assembly?

No, the unit is pre-assembled and ready to use immediately.

Will it damage my paintwork?

The hanging arms are designed to sit securely, but we recommend checking if your door or radiator paint is fragile before extended use.

Can it be used outdoors?

While rust-resistant, it is intended primarily for indoor use. If used on a balcony, ensure it is secured against high winds.

Troubleshooting

The airer does not sit level on the radiator.

Adjust the positioning of the hanging arms or check if your radiator has a top grille that is interfering with the fit.

The arms feel loose.

Ensure the hinges are fully unfolded and locked into their maximum open position to create tension.

Rust spots appearing on the frame.

Although powder-coated, wipe off standing water immediately after use in humid conditions and store in a dry location.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight and easy to reposition
  • No electricity required to dry clothes
  • Rust-resistant finish holds up well in bathrooms
  • Folds flat for hidden storage
  • Compatible with various household fixtures

Cons

  • Not suitable for heavy garments or large linens
  • Limited to 2 metres of total hanging space
  • Relies on radiator heat to speed up drying times

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup is straightforward: simply unfold the support arms and hook them over your chosen flat edge, such as a radiator or door. Ensure the unit is level to prevent clothes from sliding. For care, wipe down the powder-coated bars with a damp cloth if they become dusty or exposed to moisture for long periods. Do not exceed the weight capacity by overloading the bars with heavy wet coats or multiple thick towels, as this may cause the support arms to flex or slip.
