An eco-friendly solar clothes dryer in Co. Limerick

While people have been drying their clothes on washing lines for centuries, we thought to give this age-old tradition a new twist by creating a Solar PV covering!  In actual fact, the addition of washing lines is a simple addition to our structures and can reduce the use of tumble dryers in our homes.

This 18 panels, 9×2 panel array, was installed in partnership with JFW renewables.  We would like to thank the homeowner for their trust and vision on this project in East Co. Limerick.

The structure itself can generate up to 7.38KW and should reduce the electricity unit bill at the home significantly.

The gable ends are clad in larch and the entire project took around 11 weeks from start to finish.
