How wet are the towels?

We keep the 5er at 68 degrees with the electric furnace conversion. We spent the whole month of January on the Oregon Coast and no windo condensation.

Hi Russ. So in regards to the conversion, you converted your furnace to run on AC? If so does it still have the ability to run on propane?

Yes, we have both options, I installed RV Comfort Systems Cheap Heat add on unit to our Suburban 30,000 BTU gas.

This is the unit and the 3" duct extension I needed to fabricate.



This is the electric unit.

We have a vented washer/dryer but we also use this. It folds up out of sight behind the sofa.

One thing we do after showering, is wipe down with a face cloth to get rid of the excess water. This way the towels do not get as wet and dry quicker. It doesn't matter if the face cloth doesn't get dry - it is only going to get wet again anyway. We then hang the damp towels over the top of the shower enclosure and on the towel bar. We put a small electric heater in the bathroom, close the door and dry the whole place out. Works great and no worry about mold.

We use spring clip pants hangers for our shower towels and hang them over the sides of the shower.

I hang mine on the shower stall and then use a small floor fan to blow air on it, making sure it billows up when the fan hits it. Dries much quicker that way.

We use a "over the door" towel rack on the bathroom door. We leave the bathroom vent open an inch or so to get circulation. Works well unless the humidity is super high.

If weather permits we also hang them outside until dry.

Do you mean drying them after washing them or drying them after use and where to hang them? I know this sounds obvious, if it's after washing them, but isn't there a dryer where you wash them? If after use, we hang them over the shower door or on a hook in the commode area (toilet room) on hooks. For the kitchen towels, after use, I drape them over the strainer. If you meant something else, let us know.

SAME approach for us
