How drying works at our laundromat, step by step
Your laundry is washed, now comes the easy part. The dryer does the work, you just need to know how many coins and which temperature.
At a glance
| What | How much |
|---|---|
| Price | 200 RSD per coin |
| Time | 20 minutes per coin |
| Capacity | up to 10 kg of washed, spun laundry |
| A few kilos or a full machine | usually 2 coins |
4 steps
- Move your washed laundry into the dryer and close the door.
- Insert the coins into the slot at the top right, on the washer below the dryer, marked „Ubaci ovde za sušenje” (insert here for drying).
- Choose the temperature.
- Press the green START button.
How many coins?
| Coins | Time | For |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 20 min | A few small items, say three T-shirts and two towels |
| 2 | 40 min | From a few kilos up to a full machine |
| 3 | 60 min | Thick fabrics, materials in two or three layers, thick duvets |
Not sure? Start with two. If something is still damp, add one more.
If you washed on a gentle program, the button with a bar, the laundry is wetter, so count on one coin more.
Which temperature?
The dryer shows symbols instead of words. Here is what they mean:
| Symbol | Temperature | For |
|---|---|---|
| High | Cotton, towels, bedding, jeans | |
| Medium | Everyday clothes, fabric blends | |
| Low | Synthetics, sportswear, knits | |
| Delicate | Fine lingerie, sheer fabrics | |
| No heat | Freshening up and fluffing, items that cannot take heat |
A few tips
- Don’t over-dry. Overheated laundry shrinks and wrinkles. Better to take it out a bit early than late.
- Feel free to open the dryer mid-cycle. Drying pauses, you give the laundry a stir, close the door, press START and it carries on.
- Clean the lint filter after drying. The next person will thank you. You can also do it during drying: if the filter fills up fast, your laundry will dry better for the rest of the cycle.
- Fold while it’s warm. There is a folding table, and laundry folded warm means less ironing.
- Silk and wool: only if the care label allows tumble drying. Not sure what the label says? Here is the guide.
