It does not matter if you have a large or small family. Your household will not function properly without a washing machine. From clothes to bedding, washing machines effortlessly clean everything for us.
We must take good care of our washing machine to return the favour. Using good quality products such as our Laundry Powder will help to get a good quality result whilst looking after your washing machine.
Many homeowners do not realise there are many dos and don’ts when using washing machines. To help you keep your washing machine in top shape, here are a few essential tips:
Do Not Overload Washing Machines
We understand that laundry is not a very enjoyable chore for most people. However, that does not mean you should overload your washing machine. Laundry Powder can find it difficult to pentrate through an overloaded drum and will likely not also clean the laundry as they should. As a result, you will need to divide and rewash this extra load.
This will not help you get done with laundry faster. On the contrary, your washing machine has a certain capacity. Adding more stuff than the machine can handle will damage it.
Professional laundry services in are the best option for cleaning oversized items like comforters. They have larger washing machines to handle heavy, bulky loads.
Let the Machine Breathe
Yes, washing machines need some fresh air between loads. That is why you need to keep the door of your washing machine open after using it.
This helps washing machines dry out properly. As a result, the washing machines will smell fresher. You will also avoid mould or mildew growing inside your washing machine.
You do not need to keep the washing machine door open for long. Just 15 to 30 minutes is enough. To speed up the process, you can wipe down the inside of your washing machine. This will help remove any lingering moisture.
Give Washing Machines a Good Wash
It might sound silly. However, all washing machines need to be cleaned from time to time. This way, you will help your washing machine eliminate soap residue and other buildups.
You can run an empty hot cycle (90 degree cottons cycle) or use our Power Of 4 descaler (60 degree cotton cycle) to clean and descale it. Some washing machines have a self-cleaning option. If your washing machine has this feature, use it instead.
Another option is to run a 2-phase cleaning approach to degrease your washing machine. Run our Dishwasher Powder on a 60 degree cotton cycle through your washing machine. This will help to break down the grease followed by another cycle of our Laundry Powder on a 60 degree cotton cycle. This will ensure your outter drum is clean and ready for use.
