Glass of salt in the washing machine

The washing machine is the appliance that we all cannot do without. It is a salvation for everyone and thanks to which we have clothes, linen and everything clean, scented and sanitized. It cannot be missing in every home and especially in everyone’s hectic daily life.

However, when this is used a lot and often ends up getting dirty too. Inevitably, limescale is created over time. This is caused by the hardness of the water. But not only limescale deposits, but also dirt that accumulates in hidden places in the washing machine over time and various washes.

When the washing machine is not clean, the laundry will not be perfect and consequently you will be forced to wash the clothes for a second time because stains and bad odors do not go away. You will try to use more soap but this is not the solution. Below, in the next paragraph, we see how the glass trick works.

The glass trick in the washing machine: here’s how to do it

As we were saying, a dirty washing machine generates 100% unclean laundry and also bad smells. You end up washing a second time, they consume more soap but above all more energy. So in order to save money, you must always clean the washing machine since a clean and limescale-free appliance works best.

The glass trick is the solution because it calculates the right amount of product to use. Now let’s see together:

  • Glass of coarse salt: Using a glass of coarse salt in the washing machine helps to eliminate stains. However, it should only be used on non-delicate fabrics and there is no need to fill it all. In fact, 2/3 of a glass is enough. Very effective against sweat stains.

  • Glass of salt and baking soda: Using salt and baking soda together helps keep the washing machine clean. So they are used for maintenance. Take a glass and fill it with water. Then add a tablespoon of salt and one of baking soda. Then pour into the detergent drawer and wash empty. If you do it once a month you will have a very clean washing machine.
  • Glass of citric acid: pouring a glass of this into the drum helps to eliminate any traces of mold present in the washing machine. Simply pour it and operate an empty wash at medium temperatures.
  • Glass of white vinegar: it is always used for an empty wash. To be inserted into the basket or tray. Be careful though because vinegar can damage the rubber seals. Better not to overdo it and do this cycle in a very long run.

How to keep a washing machine clean

These are some tips but for a washing machine that works properly and gives you fragrant and clean laundry needs frequent maintenance. You also need to clean the washing machine normally. Orwash the detergent drum, gasket or filter from time to time.

Then the way you do the washing also counts. Never overload the washing machine too much because the clothes will not come out as clean as they should. Do not use more detergent than necessary and follow the instructions on the bottle. The more attention you have, the longer the washing machine will last over time.
