Why the device needs cleaning
In the process of washing, the dirt particles from clothing and linen are dissolved in the detergent solution. Unfortunately, at the end of the cycle, when the car drains water, not all of them are removed along with the liquid. The part settles on the inner elements, the edges of the drum, rubber band. The latter with poor drying can be covered by black mold stains. TEN and some other elements with time are coated with a raid from mineral salts dissolved in water.
All these are inevitable processes that can accelerate under certain conditions.
In what cases the car is polluted faster
- For washing, low-quality detergents are used, aggressive chemistry.
- The treatment of highly polluted textiles is carried out: blurred with machine oil, mortar, large amounts of land, etc.
- High level of water mineralization.
All this adversely affects the condition of the washing machine. If the external contamination in the form of air conditioning flows or traces from the powder is easy to launder, then with the details located inside the case, it is necessary. Let's talk about the most effective methods for cleaning the washing machine from dirt and smell.
Than laundering a washing machine inside from dirt and scale
Salt sediments on a tan can lead to an aggregate output. The tubular heater is in contact with running water. In the process of its heating on the tube, magnesium and calcium salts are laid. A small layer makes it difficult to execute the program, since it becomes more difficult to heat the detergent solution. If there is a lot of scale, the heater works, but the temperature does not rise, then it just burns out.That this does not happen, you need to deal with excessive rigidity of water. It is best to put a softening filter on entering. If it is impossible, it is worth adding to the "Calgon" type of special safety powder. The composition of some detergents, its analog is already included. In any case, it is not less than once again to a half or two months, it is recommended to carry out preventive cleaning. You can do this in different ways.
Lemon Acid and Vinegar
The easiest and most affordable method. As an alternative to lemon can be used three-axis carboxylic acid. Powder falls asleep in a cuvette for detergent. Dose is calculated based on the machine loading. For each kilogram, 25-30 grams of acid takes. After that, a high temperature cycle is launched, be sureless. Fabric under the influence of chemicals will deteriorate.
A hot solution of citric acid effectively corrosive. It cries and removes in the process of draining the liquid. At the same time, the TEN and the drum is cleared. If the sediment layer is large, it is recommended to turn off the power in the middle of the wash cycle for several hours. You can all night to get the maximum effect of cleaning. At the end of the cycle, it is necessary to clean the drain hose, a filter and a cuff from small limestone crumbs.
Table vinegar applies as a means of salt sediments. It is poured into the cuvette, they launch a high-temperature long cycle. So that the vinegar affects more efficiently, half a glass of water with a half-painted soda is poured into the powder compartment. A glass of 9% vinegar is poured into the drum and washing at high temperature.
Sometimes the machines clean the Coca-Cola or the sodes similar to it. Fill 5-6 liters in the drum and leave for two or three hours, then launch washing in any mode. The last way is effectant, but does not guarantee a good result.
Special chemistry
Preparations developed taking into account the characteristics of the machine can also help. They are produced in the form of powders or gels, quickly and effectively clean the surfaces from scale. Differ in the type of active substance and its concentration. Compositions with additional properties are available. For example, Beckmann will remove the unpleasant smell, Filtero 601 will effectively remove the solar deposits, "Anti-Nakipin" and "Dr. Ten" only remove scale, but they can be used for any technique.
Chlorine-containing means is not recommended to apply. They are powerless against salt sediments, but at the same time they spoil the rubber elements: cuffs and seals.
Powder Express Cleaner
Manual cleaning
In the most difficult cases, manual cleaning of the heating element helps. For this it will have to be removed from the case. From the details gently disconnected the sensor and wires, then removed it. It is necessary to do it very carefully. Deposits on the element and stuck pollution will interfere. In order not to break the knot, the flange is introduced a flat screwdriver and the heater is going to care. Slightly swing and smoothly remove.
The tubular element is washed under the jet of warm water, remove all the contamination. Then the concentrated solution of any drug from scale is prepared, the element is placed in it. You can cut the neck of a standard bottle of half a liter, put inside 4 tbsp. l. citric acid. A tan is placed in the container, poured boiling water to the level of the plank. Periodically, the bottle shakes up to activate the dissolution of salts. In this form, the heater is left overnight, rinsed, dried, put in place.
How to carry out a complex cleaning
In addition to salt sediments there are other pollution. To get rid of them by conducting comprehensive cleaning in several stages.My drum
If an unpleasant smell appeared, it's time to think about how to clean the drum of a washing machine from dirt. It's easy to do it, just run the washing cycle with a disinfecting drug without linen. After that, moistened in soapy water with a sponge wash the cuff. It is neatly straightened, wash all the folds, wipe dry. If mold spots appeared on the rubber band, they are treated with food soda or copper sulfate solution. Leave for two hours, then washed.
Tablets for cleaning the drums of washing machines
Clean the drain filter
It is located at the bottom of the hull, delays a large trash, hair, etc. The filter is usually closed with a flat plates. It is pushed by a flat screwdriver or a similar object. After that, they put on the floor a small container in which the remaining liquid will be drained. The filter cover is unscrewed clockwise, then removed. It must be cleaned, remove the accumulated garbage, and rinse under the crane.
Cleaning drainage hose
It connects the device with a sewer pipe. About once a year or a little less often it must be cleaned so that the machine can work normally. Dirt accumulating here and raid from the powder make it difficult to drain, lead to the appearance of an unpleasant smell. Through the drain filter removes the residues of the liquid from the instrument, disconnect the hose. Remove it with a cable with a rash at the end. It is scrolled inside the hose, then washed with warm water.
Liquid cleaner for washing machines
We wash the powder compartment
It over time is covered with a lime bloom, poured powder residues, etc.
- Open the compartment for detergents, press the button and remove it from the housing.
- We wash under the crane, we remove the sticking powder, drips. If there are black spots of mold, take any chlorine-containing drug and process them.
- We take a small container, put a cuvette into it. Fill with hot citric acid solution. You can use Anti-Nakipin Tool. We are waiting for an hour and a half. With severe pollution, we leave for the night.
- Brushed rubbing softening flask. Gently clean all the corners and joints. We rinse, envy.
You can try to get rid of lime deposits otherwise. They fall asleep soda, then the table vinegar is pouted on top. As a result of a rapid reaction, the lime softened, it is removed. Coupling for cuvettes should also be washed. It is processed by any detergent made of the pulverizer, leave for a while. Then rinsed and wipes with a dry cloth.
There are many ways to clean the washing machine from dirt inside. We disassemble the most efficient. It must be understood that regular care is needed by the aggregate. Cleaning from dirt and scale significantly prolongs the service life of the washing machine.
