Why can't wet clothes be put on the heater in winter?

Don't put wet clothes on the radiator in the bedroom, which has great health and safety risks.

First of all, drying clothes with heating equipment is easy to breed germs indoors, which in turn leads to health hazards. Studies show that drying washed wet clothes on indoor radiators will increase indoor humidity by 30%, thus creating an ideal environment for the growth of mold spores, which may lead to aspergillosis. This disease can lead to cough, dyspnea, fatigue, weight loss and so on. In severe cases, it will also pose a life threat to people with low immune function.

Secondly, wet clothes are placed directly on the radiator, and the temperature is high, so the clothes are easily deformed in the process of rapid drying. If you forget to take it off, it may also cause clothes to burn, which may easily lead to a fire.

A simulation experiment shows that when the electric heater is turned on for about 30 seconds, the temperature of the electric heater exceeds 150 degrees Celsius, and the temperature of the clothes lying next to the electric heater also exceeds 100 degrees Celsius. After only 15 minutes, these clothes emitted white smoke and soon caught fire.

In addition, drying clothes on the heating equipment is not conducive to the heat dissipation of the heating equipment, and a certain heat dissipation space should be reserved near the indoor heating equipment.

Extended data:

Radiators are not expensive and have quick heating effect, so they are favored by many families. Radiators on the market are mainly made of steel, copper-aluminum composite and pure aluminum, with hard texture and low surface temperature. There is no danger in theory, but there are still some places to pay attention to in daily life.

Heating generally uses hot water to transfer heat. Some families will unscrew the bolts on the radiator at home and take the hot water out for use. With the passage of time, the serious wear of bolts and threads may lead to water leakage of heating. Although the surface of the radiator is not too hot, the water temperature inside is actually very high. I believe no one wants to watch their home become a hot spring.

Don't pile up heavy objects on the radiator to avoid damaging the pipeline. In addition, the hot water in the radiator is not necessarily directly heated by tap water, and some other substances may be added based on rust prevention, so it is not suitable for daily life such as washing clothes.
