Occasional cooking wash
Did you know that your washing machine loves a little heat? A washing machine can be cleaned by running a wash once a month at 60-90 degrees, or a 'boil wash', to give your machine a thorough internal cleaning. This high temperature helps dissolve stubborn stains and old soap residue. For example, wash this laundry with towels or bed linen.
Vinegar and baking soda
Are you planning to use vinegar and baking soda to freshen up your washing machine?
Although vinegar is a popular natural cleaning agent, it should be used with care. Too much vinegar can corrode rubber and metal parts of your washing machine, leading to damage and leaks. Use these products in moderation and always consult your washing machine manual or contact the manufacturer for specific cleaning advice. Safety and preservation of your equipment always come first!
Dishwasher tablets as a last resort
Does your washing machine continue to smell unpleasant, despite regular washing? Then try ecological dishwasher tablets. Throw two tablets into the drum and run the machine on a boil wash. The powerful cleaning properties of the dishwasher tablets will make your washing machine smell wonderfully fresh again.
What if nothing helps?
Stubborn musty odors that do not go away with the above tips are often the result of a problem in the machine or drain. It is best to call in an expert who can check everything thoroughly.
