Modern manufacturers follow the lead of consumers who are trying to save on everything.
It is no secret that many housewives are ready to constantly wash clothes at a temperature no higher than 40 degrees, without thinking about the consequences.
However, if you can ruin your laundry by placing it in hot water, you can ruin your machine by constantly washing it at low temperatures.
We will tell you in what cases and what clothes can be washed at temperatures below 40 degrees.
20 degrees and less
This is not really washing, but rather the so-called removal of the consequences of 1- or 2-time wear. Suitable for those cases when the fabric is not dirty, there are no traces of sweat, stains, etc.
This way you can save up to 66% of electricity, and the colours will not fade.
30 degrees
In such water you can tidy up black and colored clothes, jeans and children's clothes, wool and silk.
This way you can also save up to 46% of electricity.
But greasy and more complex stains cannot be removed this way.
However, these modes are insidious, because cool water creates a suitable environment for the spread of bacteria. It is necessary to use modes above 60 degrees at least once a month.
