and lived to tell the tale ?
Just had to do 4 of the most cruddy filters ever. BelRay blue is an absolute bitch one it has seen river water. It becomes even stickier. That washing machine in the kitchen should be in my garage...!

Hoover Air Filter Dryer
- patent pending
I use the clothes dryer to tumble dry the filters on warm (NEVER hot) after the usual cleaning regime. Dryer smells a bit of turps but the filters come out dry and ready to oil, or bag up for later.

oldfart I used the old dishwasher trick for a short time also..actually it was along time as the timer was broken and the cycle lasted about 6 hours till I got home..all before water restrictions came into play thankfully
it did work well though

I limit myself to using the oven to heat C/cases - and even then I make sure 'she who must be obeyed' (especially when it comes to matters pertaining to the indoors domain) is guaranteed to be away from home reliably for a protract time.

Our dryer ended up in the garage because of space in the laundry issues so I reckon it becomes fair game.
They work so well, you should have one there anyway.
