Hooded blankets need to be dried after being used for a period of time to maintain their hygiene and service life. Here are some tips and suggestions for drying hooded blankets.
Drying methods
1. Choose a suitable drying location: Hooded blankets should be dried in a well-ventilated and sunny place. This can not only effectively remove moisture, but also have a sterilizing effect. However, it should be noted that the blanket should not be exposed directly to strong sunlight to avoid fading of the blanket and aging of the fibers.
2. Use drying tools: In order to ensure that the hooded blanket does not deform during the drying process, it is recommended to use a drying rack or clothesline. The blanket can be dried diagonally on the clothesline, which can greatly shorten the drying time. In addition, two parallel bamboo poles can be used to hang the blanket on it for drying.
3. Avoid heavy pressure: During the drying process, avoid placing heavy objects on the hooded blanket to avoid deformation of the blanket. At the same time, avoid stacking with sharp and rough objects to avoid scratching or damaging the fibers of the blanket.
Drying time
1. Drying cycle: Hooded blankets can generally be dried once a month. If they are not used for a long time, it is recommended to dry them before storage to remove moisture and odor.
2. Drying time: In sunny weather, hooded blankets usually dry for 2-3 hours to achieve good results. If the weather is cooler or the humidity is high, the drying time can be appropriately extended.
Special situation handling
1. Quick drying: If you need to use a hooded blanket urgently, you can use some quick drying methods. For example, you can put the blanket in a dehydrator for several rounds of dehydration, and then put it in a sunny place to dry, or put it in an air-conditioned room with heating turned on to dry it.
2. Anti-mildew treatment: Hooded blankets are prone to mold in the rainy season or in a humid environment. You can wash it with a neutral detergent before drying it. When drying, you can sprinkle some desiccant or mildew inhibitor on the blanket to prevent mildew.
With the above drying tips and suggestions, you can better maintain the hooded blanket, extend its service life, and enjoy more warmth and comfort.
