Rank: Forum user		Due to the power having been cut off to our drying-room between 2200 and 0600hrs we now have reduced drying potential for wet clothing. Does anyone have an alternative? Requirements: 1. Produces heat. 2. does not operate on electricity 3. timer would be nice.

Rank: Forum user		What about a storage heater, if you can still get them. Heated up until the power goes off and then latent heat from the thermal mass until the morning.

Rank: Forum user		Thanks for the ideas. I think that a gas heater, correctly vented, is probably the best way to go. The problem with any solution found is that it would need to me on a timer so that it can turn on and off when the electricity goes off and on. Mick

Rank: Super forum user		Why has the power been cut-off overnight? There should be an option to maintain certain dedicated supplies - why not that one?
