3 Smart laundry tips to make your clothes last longer | Lifestyle.INQ

OCTOBER 27, 2022

Isn’t it heartbreaking when your favorite shirt shrinks or fades in the wash? No matter how much or how little we spend on clothes, we always want them to look great. Extending their life doesn’t require a lot of time and effort. There are several ways to keep your clothes looking as good as new and one is by making sure that they get washed properly every laundry day. Make a habit of following these helpful tips to make your clothes last longer:

  • Set the correct temperature setting

Using the right temperature when doing your laundry is essential. High water temperature can remove the toughest of stains and kill bacteria but it can also damage certain types of fabric. Meanwhile, low temperatures save energy but may not clean your clothes thoroughly. This is why most people prefer to mix both because warm water has a perfect balance of cleaning power while keeping your clothes from shrinking and fading.

  • Choose your wash cycle accordingly

A washer can usually perform one or more wash cycles so you should choose what best fits your load. While the normal cycle is used by most wash loads, however when different stains and fabric types pile up, this may require you to change your cycle setting and use others like permanent press or delicate. Modern automatic washers even offer more advanced options to help you out. Whether you want to pick the fastest wash cycle or one that offers deep clean, achieve a more efficient wash by selecting the right cycle for your needs.

  • Use the right amount of detergent

A common misconception of many is that the more detergent you use, the cleaner your clothes will be. However, too much detergent can actually damage clothes over time, while too little can leave newly washed clothes dirty and dull. This is why it is necessary to use the proper amount of detergent on your laundry by considering the size of your wash load and how dirty they are.

Fortunately, Whirlpool introduced the BloomWash InverterPlus washer to help make laundry a lot easier and more efficient. With its Auto Dosing System, this top load washer automatically detects the right amount of detergent to be used at the right time which can help you prevent under- or over-dosing. It also has a Warm Wash feature that removes the toughest stains and also sanitizes your clothes. Aside from these, it is also equipped with the Zen Direct Drive Inverter Technology that gives you a quiet wash performance while providing maximum energy savings. This is proven by the Meralco Power Lab which estimates the cost per wash as Php1.33 with the 10.5kg capacity washer (WVTD1050 BHG) while the 12kg capacity washer (WVMD1208 BHG) only costs Php0.49 every wash cycle.
