Half of Housewives Still Do Their Washing Wrong: 6 Mistakes That Kill Equipment and Laundry

Half of housewives still do not pay attention to various little things when washing clothes, which in the meantime spoil the clothes and the washing machine.

There are 6 mistakes that can one day play a fatal joke and lead to expensive repairs.

Mistake #1

Be sure to check the contents of your pockets before loading items into the drum. Small coins, pins and other objects can damage the fabric during spinning and then get stuck in the drain filter.

Mistake #2

If the owner does not look at what the clothing manufacturer warns about on the label, then no powders or conditioners will help to extend the life of things. For many materials, washing at high temperatures, drying and other nuances are excluded.

Mistake #3

You can't load the laundry into the drum in a lump. Shirts, trousers and other items should be folded separately. If you wash them in a lump, they can damage the equipment during spinning and also wash poorly.

Mistake #4

Clothes are washed inside out, otherwise the material will quickly fade. If there is a pattern or other decorative elements on the fabric, it may crack if this is not done.

Mistake #5

Calculate the dosage of powder and gels correctly. Excessive amounts of household chemicals spoil the fabric fibers and settle inside the machine.

Mistake #6

Ideally, load the machine to ¾ of its capacity. Otherwise, you should not count on normal water circulation and high-quality washing. In addition, wet laundry weighs more and during spinning there will be strong vibration, which will cause the equipment to wear out faster.
