Why don’t clothes stay clean forever?
Even with the most modern washing machines, your clothes won’t stay new forever. And sometimes, improper use of the machine can accelerate their deterioration. Have you ever wondered what the capacity in kilograms on your appliance really means? Or why some cycles don’t produce the desired results? Here’s how to maximize the efficiency of your wash and extend the life of your clothes and your machine.
What does the capacity of a washing machine mean?
When a machine is rated for ‘7kg’, this refers to the weight of dry clothes it can hold, not their wet weight. Overloading can cause serious damage, such as premature wear of the motor or drum.
Here’s Why Your Clothes Aren’t Perfectly Clean After Machine Washing
Think of your machine as an athlete: capable of lifting a specific weight, but overwhelmed if overloaded. For example, a machine designed for 7 kg should not handle 10 kg of laundry, at the risk of overheating and costly breakdowns.
How much laundry should I put in for an optimal wash?
Contrary to popular belief, washing less laundry does not save water or energy. A machine rated for 7 kg will use the same amount of water for one shirt as for a full load. In addition, a nearly empty drum lacks the friction needed to effectively remove stains.
