Regular upkeep is essential for the best performance of your washing machine and to guarantee that your laundry comes out spotless every time. Consider the following practical advice:
Maintain your filters: Consistently inspecting and cleaning the filters in your washing machine is crucial for its efficiency. For top-loading machines, don't forget to take off the agitator and clean underneath with Natural Cleaning Paste at least every six months or as needed. For front loaders, you can find guidance on cleaning your washing machine filters from Consumer NZ.
Washing Machine Deep Clean:
After cleaning filters with your Natural Cleaning Paste or Natural Cleaning Spray and removing the agitator to clean (if applicable), run a long, hot empty cycle with:
½ cup Citric Acid for top loaders
¼ cup Citric Acid for front loaders
This will help dissolve mineral build-up and leave your machine fresh.
By implementing these maintenance practices, you can extend the lifespan of your washing machine and ensure it delivers excellent cleaning results for your clothing.
