Myths & Facts — Laundry
Recently the Whirlpool Institute of Fabric Science posted an article on the Myths & Facts of laundry bleach, detergents and dryers causing shrinkage. Their findings were:
~~~~~~~~~~~
#1 - Myth: Bleach mixed with detergent helps clean and whiten at the same time.
Fact: Adding bleach with detergent counteracts its effectiveness.
Instead, add bleach during the last 5 minutes of the wash cycle to ensure that the cleaning agents work best. Our washing machines have automatic bleach dispensers to eliminate the timing guesswork and make sure your whites are dazzling.#2 - Myth: Using the dryer leads to shrinkage.
Fact: Surprisingly, it’s not the heat from the dryer that causes clothes to shrink; it’s the lack of moisture.
New dryer technology actually measures the moisture in the fabric and automatically shuts off to prevent over-heating therefore reducing shrinkage.
#3 - Myth: Treat the stain from the front, head on.
Fact: Always treat the stain from the back of the fabric to help push it off the garment.
#4 - Myth: More suds equals better cleaning.
Fact: Excess suds actually hold onto soils and redeposit them on your laundry.
We provide high energy, high quality detergent that is especially made for Frontloaders. This detergent if used in the 'correct' quantity will provide the best results for your clothes. If using you own detergent, ensure that you use the quantities recommended on the bottle to suit either Frontloader or Toploader.
**We hope this Mythbusting session has helped**
