Cleaning the washing machine with White

Cleaning the washing machine with WhiteConstant contact with water and detergents does not make the washing machine perfectly clean. On the contrary, hair, villi, dirt and scum constantly accumulate inside it. Without proper and timely cleaning, all the impurities hidden in the bowels of the unit will lead to an unpleasant odor, dampness, mold, up to clogging, jamming and failure of the device. Therefore, once every six months, housewives must carry out cleaning, for which it is not necessary to buy expensive special equipment. With proper use, you can perfectly clean the Belizena washing machine.

Cleaning procedure

White is affordable, cheap and versatile, so it is likely that it is in every home. It is used for disinfecting surfaces, bleaching things and deep cleaning units, including washing machines. The main thing is to correctly calculate the dosage of the drug.

The average cost of 1 liter of whiteness is 20 rubles.

But to experiment with all the familiar whiteness without proper knowledge is not recommended - this tool is very aggressive and belongs to professional cleaners. But you should not be afraid of a “strong” composition and a sharp chemical smell, you just need to learn how to use it wisely. In order to prevent mistakes, we adhere to the instructions.

  1. We find 1 liter of quality whiteness.Pour White into the powder tray
  2. Check if there are any things left in the washing drum. Remember that clothes washed with whiteness will deteriorate and become unsuitable for further wear.
  3. Close the hatch door tightly and turn on the machine in the network.
  4. Open the tray and slowly pour a liter of whiteness into the compartments.
  5. We start the machine by selecting a program with a heating temperature of at least 90 degrees.
  6. We wait 10-15 minutes and touch the glass of the hatch door. If it is very hot, then put the cycle on pause or completely cancel the program.
  7. We leave the machine with whiteness for 1-2 hours.
  8. After 1-2 hours, we continue the suspended program or select "Drain".
  9. After the water has drained, turn on the rinse.
  10. We open the powder receptacle and pour in the vinegar (up to the “max” mark) into the compartment intended for the air conditioner.
  11. We start the quick wash mode.
  12. Rinse the machine at least 2 more times.

It is believed that the concentrate of White can harm the typewriter, especially those places where there are rubber seals. But the cleaner’s aggressive effect on the washer has not been proven - it’s more speculation, forcing people to buy expensive brands instead of cheap liquids.

Why does dirt accumulate inside?

In fact, what tool to choose - an expensive professional cleaner or normal whiteness, it does not matter. The main thing is not to let the washing of the washing machine go by gravity, hoping for constant contact with water and frequent washing using high-quality powders. Remember that in this way the dirt settled on the walls of the drum, motor shaft, heating elements, nozzles, hoses and pump is not washed out, but only supplemented by new “neighbors”. The machine is polluted in many ways.

  • Old or woolen linen. Imagine how many fibers in the process of washing and spinning fall off things and begin to "walk" on the machine.
  • Foreign objects. Often, housewives throw clothes into the drum without checking their pockets for trifles or pieces of paper and without shaking off the hair and fur of animals from it. In vain, since all of these seemingly harmless objects thoroughly clog the inside of the unit.
  • Hard water. In most cases, tap water contains many impurities that settle on the internal components and parts of the machine, creating a layer of scale.
  • Violations of the operating rules. The lack of airing of the drum after washing, the unwillingness to dry the machine from moisture, storage of dirty things in the tank, inaccurate loading and unloading - all this leads to the appearance of mold and the growth of bacteria.
  • Poor quality detergents. Not everyone pays attention to the composition of the powder to be poured or the gel to be poured, while poor quality mixtures leave a dangerous coating on the inside of the machine. The dosage also matters, since exceeding the proportions is fraught with unwashed chemistry remaining in the machine.

Unfortunately, a person cannot avoid all existing problems. However, most of the pathways for the appearance and spread of dirt can be avoided. For example, if you observe the following recommendations:

  • wash at a temperature not exceeding 60 degrees;
  • Do not save on quality detergents;
  • soften water with special softeners;
  • install a special filter on the machine;
  • clean the washer at least 1 time in 6-12 months.

It is necessary to monitor not only the internal state of the machine, but also be sure to look after the external surfaces. So, manufacturers recommend rinsing the drum and tray after each wash, palpating and drying the cuff of the hatch, and on vertical machines do not forget about the rubber clips of the doors.

It is important to keep the washing machine open for as long as possible to ensure free air conditioning.

Should I refuse internal cleaning?

Refuse from the simple procedure for cleaning the machine with whiteness is not worth it - reluctance to regularly monitor the state of the machine will lead to unpleasant consequences. Measured by the manufacturer, the average service life of 7-10 years will be greatly reduced if the required operating conditions of the unit are violated. Due to the thick layer of scale (even 1 mm), rapidly spreading mold, soap and greasy deposits, the washer will not live even 2 years. More specifically, the lack of proper care will result in problems.without cleaning the machine will grow mold

  • Dirt will begin to accumulate on the walls of the hose and nozzles, which will eventually cause blockage in the drainage system and blockage of the pump impeller.
  • A scale layer forms on the heating element, which will increase over time and cover the entire heater. Due to such a shell, the heating element will overheat and break.
  • At the “entrance” to the washer - the point where the water inlet hose and filter are connected, particles of sand, rust and scale will accumulate, which will lead to blockages and leaks.

The listed malfunctions are only the first problematic “swallows”. It is with them that users have to deal most often. But the most unpleasant thing is that the breakdown will happen suddenly: a stop in the middle of the cycle, incomplete spinning or not draining. Correcting the situation will be difficult and expensive, it is much easier not to forget to rinse the machine with whiteness.

You can avoid troublesome repairs not only with whiteness or other similar means. Many service providers offer preventative cleanings for a moderate fee, and if there is no desire or ability to do the machine yourself, it is better to contact professionals.

Whiteness is capable of much, and it is quite simple to completely clean the washing machine with it. The main thing is to correctly calculate the ratio of water to bleach and not to neglect the mentioned recommendations for caring for the machine.
