25) In Summary

Ok, so we've washed our clothes but how can we dry them? Easily with this dryer - or often called an extractor.

One full load of laundry in the Staber washer will equal two loads into this dryer - and at only 3 minutes a pop, that's no problem at all!

This thing works!

At the Solar Home Tour, I have a bucket of water and a shirt for my demo.

Pulling a shirt from the bucket with water literally streaming off it, I ask if anyone would like to inspect it just to see how wet it really is - everyone declines! Next, I put it in the Spin-X and let'er rip!


In just 3 minutes the machine starts winding down and when it stops, I pull out the shirt and throw it to the onlookers for inspection. They truly do believe after that!
