Great vid btw- my 2 year old Candy was fine until I started doing a lot of 309 deg washes, i used to "waste electric" asnd do 60 deg for anything that could handle it. Going back to that too. Good info- thank you.

    @SBBUK Год назад +3

    Nice video, currently waiting for my 90c wash with the cleaning powder to finish. Fingers crossed it will do the job. I think this is the one major disadvantage of doing colder washes - with modern detergents you can still get your clothes clean at 30c, but the machine builds up bacteria far faster than "back in the day" when people were washing at 60c+ on a regular basis. Still, running a high temp wash every 6 months or so is probably way cheaper than washing daily at higher temps.

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  Год назад

      Thanks. Yes 90C gives it a good clean out. 😎

      And don't use fabric softener. It ruins clothes and can potentially be cancerous.
      But softener clings to your clothes fibers, but how does it know the difference between gunk and your fibers. It doesn't so it clings together gunk which makes it heavy and potentially sinks so it doesn't drain properly.
      Creates a feeding ground for bacteria

      Low water pressure shouldn't affect it as the drainage is the last part where the pump pumps out the water in the machine. Sounds like poor pipework on your drainage. Best get a plumber to have a look and advise.

    Every time I do a drum clean with my washing machine the machine leaks and water floods out everywhere 🤦 do you know what could be the cause of this?

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  2 года назад +1

      Too much detergent, probably too many soap suds and foam and it will try to escape. Use less detergent or less washing machine cleaner.

      Yes not easy. Still try a drum clean/90c wash as this may flush through and clean it.
      Else use the pods which go directly in the drum and it may clear up after a while

I've checked the pump and the drawer has been completely cleaned and the rubber seal. Yet the washing still comes out smelling awful. I'll see if the professional machine cleaner works. The machine doesn't have a drum clean function, which is unfortunate.

      Laundry comes out smelling, are you sure the cold water inlet feed is ok, I would think it is as it’s mains water and you’d see problems with water out of your taps.
      You could also try the pods for a laundry wash instead of using the detergent drawer as these go straight in the drum.

      Try scrubbing it loose with a long brush (but block that hole up incase you drop it), then do a service wash or a hot wash with no clothes to flush the machine through. After you do a wash always leave dispenser drawer slightly out to let it ventilate, will stop mould building
