Simple Laundry Hints

When life gives you laundry, we give you helpful laundry hints!

Often we meet people who don’t have the right washer and dryer for their needs. What they have is either broken, dysfunctional or old. That’s when we recommend a new washer and dryer pair, like our favorite Electrolux model.

Other times we meet someone with the right appliances, but who has questions about which laundry products to use.

We can help with that too!

Below is a useful guide we hope boosts your laundry skills to the next level.

Liquid detergent: Pre-measure the correct amount before using. It’s most effective when treating grease or oil stains.

Laundry pacs: With these, just toss one in the machine and go. They contain pre-measured detergent in a convenient little package. Laundry pacs are powerful cleaners and easy to use.

Powdered detergent: Similar to liquid detergent, you must measure the correct amount before using. It’s best for treating ground-in dirt, but make sure to add it to the washing machine before starting a load of clothes.

There’s no need to fret over doing the laundry. When you have the proper tools and knowledge, your laundry will come out great every time!

A Clean Dryer, Is a Happy Dryer

We bet you cleaned a lot of clothes over the holiday. New socks and sweaters you got for Christmas, washing the kids’ snow pants after playing outside and doing the laundry for guests. Seems like it’s been two straight weeks of laundry, hasn’t it?

Fortunately, 2017 has brought relief from laundry. Everyone has clean clothes -- old and new -- and the relatives are doing laundry at their own homes again.

Now that your appliances are resting, show them TLC. Lint and dirt could build up in the dryer after multiple loads of clothes, towels and sheets. Following these tips can increase your dryer’s efficiency and help it last longer.

The filter is the easiest part to clean, and should be done after every use. Even if you wipe away lint, a clean filter may be clogged if you use fabric softener sheets. To test, pour a little water on your filter. If the water pools up rather than flowing through the screen, it needs cleaning. Wash the screen using a brush and warm, soapy water.

Your dryer drum doesn’t usually need to be cleaned, unless you included a load of clothes filled with pet hair or dirt and grime. First, shake off as much excess dirt or hair as possible before placing them in the dryer. When the clothes are done, wipe the drum with a damp cloth to remove hair or dirt.

If you open the dryer and find gum or crayon in your drum, don’t fear. We have a solution! Warm your dryer and throw in a couple old towels. Scrape off extra dirt with a hard rubber spatula. Clean the drum with a moist cloth, laundry detergent and hot water, then wipe away water with a dry towel.

Easy, right? Yes it is!

Now your dryer can start 2017 off fresh, clean and ready to work.

Summer time is laundry time

Kids love summer. No school, no homework — just lots of time to play baseball, soccer and kickball.

Parents on the other hand? They like outdoor activities as much as the kids, but parents are all too aware of the double-edged sword of the outdoors. For every play date, baseball game or trip to the sandbox, there’s dirt. And lots of it. Dirt, sand, mud and grass mean clothes and sports uniforms need to be washed regularly to keep up with the flurry of activities.

An extra long pour of detergent usually gets everything clean. Usually. But lately the washing machine isn't cutting it. You need a machine with more stamina; with quick wash, more cycles and more choices. Time to take action. 

The new Electrolux laundry duo has a washing machine and dryer which cleans clothes thoroughly. The SmartBoost technology premixes water and detergent, making a cold-water wash as effective as a hot one. You'll have a deep clean that removes stains in all cycles. With a fast wash time and large capacity, you spend less time doing laundry and more time with the family. The dryer dries clothes faster (and quieter) than before.

It’s going to be a good summer.
