is there a health risk in drying your washing on a radiator

July 15, 2007 7:22am CST
I have been told by my partner that there is a health risk on pneumonia if i dry my washing on our radiators? I cant find anything to back this up. when i was growing up my mum always used to dry washing on radiators. Im just thinking has anyone ever heard this before and is there any truth in it?? thanks

cant see what could ever happen if you did that. if you ask me, drying them outside is worse. nature has worms, lice, flees, ticks, spiders moths, pollen, spores,fungus etc that could get to your clothes on the line. imagine bringing that in the house. now theres a health risk.
