Drying Room
The prepared drying room should not exceed 100m³ (cubic meter). For drying rooms over 100m³ a secondary machine will be required. The unit of volume measure, cubic meter, relates to square meter and ceiling height of the room. Ceiling height over 2.5m is not recommended.
For example; for a room with 2.5 ceiling height, the surface must be 40m² at most. 40 x 2.5 = 100 m³
The smaller the drying room, the faster the drying operation. For this reason, a room in necessary size for the daily carpet washing capacity is recommended.
Frigorific Container
Frigorific cases can also be used for drying room. Heat insulation is present in own bodies of frigorific cases which are generally used as cold storages.

Hangers
Hangers in drying room should be placed in parallel to the blowing surface of drying machine as shown in the above figure. The blown air spreads in the whole room by flowing through the carpets. To increase carpet hanging capacity of your room, the distance between 2 hangers may be decreased to 15cm. The important thing is to prevent contact between the carpets and let the air flow through the hanged carpets.
Isolation
Internal surface of the room must be heat insulated for drying. In rooms without insulation, maintaining the necessary temperature is hard and drying takes time. Less the heat loss, faster the drying.
Compressed Styropor
This is a compound similar to foam generally used for external facade insulation. It is used for insulation against heat, cold and noise.
Drying room should not let air in. All internal surfaces, ceiling, floor, door and side walls must be covered with compressed polystyrene completely to prevent heat loss in the room. Sandwich panel and similar hard material may be used for floor to prevent crushing.
