While many apartment rentals today have a working dryer in them, it seems that the property owner constantly has to call in Dryer Repair in Richmond, VA to have them worked on. If you think about it, these malfunctioning dryers are not doing a whole lot for your electric bills, or the wet clothes that you have to hang on the line, when the dryer goes out, yet again. Below you will find some pros and cons of buying a dryer when you live in a rental unit.
Pros
- While calling in Richmond Dryer Repair & Service does not cost you anything, the fact that the dryer is not working right does run up your electric bill. It is estimated that buying a new dryer will save about 25 percent on your electric bill.
- You would actually use less detergent, because you would not have to rewash clothes that started to stink when they dryer went on the fritz, again.
- You could stop over drying clothes, which is not good for the electric bill or the material.
- Your water usage would drop because you would not have to keep rewashing wet clothes that have soured, waiting on the dryer to be fixed.
- Chances are that the dryer is an older one, and not at all good for the environment. Buying a new dryer for your rental unit will be doing your part to save the world.
Cons
- There is a free dryer in the laundry room, and you would be paying to put in a new one.
- A new dryer could be very expensive
- You would have to move this heavy appliance with you when you move again.
