When to do laundry during extreme temps.

For our household, we watch the weather to decide when to do laundry. You figure, your dryer has a big blower that's the equivalent of having a fan blowing out a window.

We do our laundry during times when it's as close as possible to "room temperature". This approach makes it easier on your HVAC. E.g. It's been frigid the last week or so. Instead of running the dryer when it's 10°, wait until the warmest part of the week so the furnace doesn't have to run (as much) to compensate for the air being blown out of the house.

Ditto when it's hot. Run the dryer when it's 70° outside instead of when it's 90°.
