A separate room for the
laundry room is useful in every home, especially since it can perform several
functions at the same time.
Laundry
If our house has a
surface that allows the separation of space, which will act as a laundry, it is
worth using this solution. This
will facilitate the operation of the household, maintaining cleanliness and
separating the residential area from less representative facilities. The loud work of the washing machine
will also not be so annoying for the residents here. The closed room will effectively
silence the noise and allow you to collect all clothes and textiles that
require washing in one place.
Laundry at home as a
buffer
Most often, a room in
the back of the house is allocated to the laundry, separated from the day zone,
located from the north or connected with a garage or boiler room. It is possible to adapt to this
purpose even a windowless space, but necessarily with water, sewage, electrical
installations and efficient ventilation. In
small houses, a small room will work, in which we will place a washing machine,
a basket for dirty underwear and hang a shelf for detergents. Larger space will allow us to increase
the number of room functions. By
positioning the laundry room from the cold side of the property, we will create
a kind of insulating band that protects the heated living space
home. When we design it at the garage, it
will create a sluice between the two parts of the building.
Laundry room with drying
room and ironing room
A convenient solution is
a laundry room that can accommodate a laundry dryer. Thanks to this, at any time of the
year, we can freely hang the laundry in a closed room, isolated from the rest
of the house. The optimal
solution is a laundry room with access to the garden, where in warm days we will
bring wet clothing to dry. Practically
it will also locate the laundry near the entrance to the terrace or balcony. Drying in the open air will then
become easy and also quickly get rid of moisture from the laundry room. In addition to the space for the
dryer, it is useful to place an ironing board in the laundry room. Without moving worn clothes to other
rooms, we will be able to iron them in the same place. In a spacious room, all appliances can
be permanently distributed, which will improve housework.
Laundry room with a
utility bathroom
An additional practical
function that can be used by a laundry room is a bathroom designed for washing
larger sizes, cleaning household and garden equipment, washing dogs, etc.
Although it requires space, install a large industrial wash basin in which you
can successfully put a bucket or scrub a bathtub, bathtub Soak curtains and a
practical shower tray, it will prove to be very useful. Such equipment will allow you to
maintain a greater order in the residential part of the house. In addition, the laundry room can act
as a storage room for the equipment needed for cleaning. Mops, brushes, washcloths and a vacuum
cleaner will find their place here.
