Whirlpool Laundry Troubleshooting

Our new washer and dryer have been here for a few months now.

The first month was kind of a trial period as we played and learned our way around these new machines. I was really used to the old school where they have dark and light.

This new-fangled contraption of having all of these settings and being able to customize everything took some getting used to for me. In fact, I still struggle a little although I do like it and my laundry has never been cleaner.

The second month was really just fine tuning our laundry process. Learning how exactly to wash everything. I spent a lot of time adjusting settings and seeing what we really works for each type of fabric, etc.

This third month has been about figuring out ways to clean the best way possible while conserving energy and just troubleshooting in general. To me, laundry is really a science. You put the detergent in and other additives; you pick the right cycles and out come clean clothes.

Now while I said that our old washer and dryer only had a few settings, the pair was also responsible for shrinking clothes, colors bleeding and many other troubles that I just hate having when it comes to laundry.

Did you know?

–          Smart temperature control helps reduce shrinking and color bleeding and the washer offers 14 specialty fabric care cycles.

–          Care control temperature management enabled by 6^th Sense technology helps protect your clothes by controlling water amount and temperature.

–          The Precision Dispense Ultra system also releases bleach and fabric softener at the right time during the cycle for optimal fabric care.

–          Appliances require regular maintenance such as cleaning the washer with affreshTM and emptying the lint filter on the dryer after each load. The vent should be cleaned every couple of months.

How do you maintain your appliances to keep them in working order?
