Your washing machine and dryer are hardworking appliances that deserve proper care. By following a few simple maintenance steps, you can keep them running efficiently, save energy, and extend their lifespan. At Five Brothers, we’ve put together these 7 essential laundry care tips to help you get the best out of your machines.
1. Clean the Washer Filter from Time to Time
A clogged washer filter slows down the machine, causes unpleasant smells, and prevents proper cleaning. Make it a habit to clean the filter regularly to ensure smooth performance and fresher clothes.
2. Don’t Overuse Laundry Detergent
Using too much detergent creates excess foam, leaves residue on clothes, and lowers washing performance. Always follow the recommended dosage for cleaner results and a longer-lasting washer.
3. Clean the Water Inlet Filter Regularly
Limescale buildup can block water flow and reduce your washing machine’s efficiency. Cleaning the inlet filter ensures steady water flow and prevents unnecessary breakdowns.
4. Leave the Washer Door Open After Washing
Moisture trapped inside the machine leads to mold, mildew, and bad odors. Keep the washer door slightly open after every wash to allow air circulation and keep your machine fresh.
5. Don’t Overload the Washing Machine
Clothes need space to move around. Overloading leads to poor cleaning results and puts extra strain on the washer’s motor and drum. Wash in moderate loads for the best outcome.
6. Clean the Lint Filter After Every Drying Cycle
A clogged dryer lint filter wastes energy, slows down drying, and can even cause overheating. Clean it after every cycle to protect your dryer and save on electricity.
7. Take Clothes Out Immediately After Drying
Leaving clothes inside the dryer causes mustiness and wrinkles. Remove them right after drying and let them air briefly to keep them fresh and neat.
Final Thoughts
By following these laundry maintenance tips, you’ll not only protect your washer and dryer but also improve cleaning results, save energy, and extend the life of your appliances.
