Errors you make when putting the washing machine Can you pay it expensive!

The new Light Bill since June 1 is in force implies an additional cost in the use of our home's appliances.The washing machine is precisely one of the most sensitive devices to this rise in the electric bill after the oven.

For example, on the 31st, put the washing machine, it cost us about 33 cents on its most expensive section.Now, putting the washing machine will involve a 42.2% rise in the high strip, the oven will cost 37.8% more and the dishwasher rises 41.3%.

That is why it is important that you do not commit failures when putting your casting, do not have to repeat washing.The OCU has developed a decalogue with the most frequent mistakes we commit when putting the washing machine.

We tell you what are and how to avoid them.

Do not treat stains

Washing without the spots before is one of the most frequent errors.If we put in the washing machine a garment with a stain without treating it previously, the safest thing is that when we take it out the stain, stay there.

The OCU proposes to treat the stain with a chitamanchas and then wash the garment at the highest possible temperature without exceeding it since it could shrink or fade.

Very full washing machine and mix different clothes

Another very frequent mistake is overloading the washing machine with the maximum of clothes as possible.However, the OCU warns of the importance of garments can move freely on the drum and indicate how the exact measure to get the hand between clothes and the top of the drum.

As for mixing clothes, you have to separate white and color clothes.The OCU Council is to classify them according to the washing temperature recommended by its label, cold, temperate or hot.

Lingerie and quantity of detergent

If we get together in the lingerie drum and the rest of the clothes, you run the risk that small garments how socks or underwear be entangled with sheets and tablecloths and many times even are disappearing in the case of socks.

To solve this from the Organization of Consumers and Users (OCU) propose to use a mesh bag and put socks and smaller garments there so that they do not lose or tangle.

As for the detergent, we should not put much or little, if you pass you can leave remains in your clothes and if you do not arrive your clothes will be dirty.It should be used in the fair amount following the manufacturer's instructions.

Cold water and rescue

Cold water hinders the action of detergent, it is advisable to consult the label and use the temperature advised by the manufacturer.In general, an optimal temperature and that all tissues admit is 30 degrees.

The OCU also alerts on the use of bleach, which is an aggressive product for tissues and for the washing machine itself and therefore recommends its use only when it is essential to disinfect clothes or remove a concrete stain.

Do not empty it soon after washing and not clean it

He does not immediately tend the clothes and leave it wet in the drum makes it acquire a smell of moisture and that is very wrinkled.That is why the recommendation of the OCU is to take it out immediately and if we are not going to be at home when it ends, delay the beginning of the washing with the deferred start function that many models now have.

We must also clean the drainage filters, rubbers and detergent boxes so that it gives to the maximum.

Regardless of the washing machine, the most normal thing is that this acquires dirt, especially in the rubbers, which causes problems to evacuate water or to distribute the detergent.

Centrifuge too much

Centrifuging many revolutions can harm the tissue, it is better to centrifuge only at high speed cotton garments and for mixing or synthetic tissues Use a lighter centrifugate (900 or 1.000 rpm, at most).
