Main Advantages of Front Load Washers
Although most laundry detergent in the United States are only compatible with top load washers, in Europe most households and various laundry facilities use front load washing machines. For some reason, front load washers have never been popular in the United States, allowing other one to be the standard for commercial laundry facilities.
The top load washers have a tub and an opening right on the top. The tub is filled with water to completely cover the laundry and the central agitator creates the conditions which actually clean the laundry. Because of the top opening, the loading and retrieval process of the laundry is extremely easy.
In the case of front load washers, the tub is placed horizontally and rotates in chamber which contains water. There is no agitator as gravity takes care of the tumble process, resulting in the spin of the tub. While with top load washers the tub spins at 650 rpm, in the case of front load washers that is about 1,000 rpm. Thus, in the case of front load washers, the laundry should be much cleaner.
The front load washers need less water to operate as its top load counterpart. As there is no agitator, more soiled linen can be added to it, leading to a shorter washing time and higher energy efficiency. Additionally, less detergent is required for an efficient cleaning. One of the disadvantages of front load washers is that you cannot add soiled item after the tub has been closed down and turned on; the time to load the dirty items and the recover of the cleaned laundry has been already set.
The best possible detergent for laundry exclusively created for front load washers is available in the form of powder of liquid. On the other hand, the detergent must be intended to carefully clean with no suds that might cause damage the washer and the sensitive clothing inside it. Nevertheless, in most cases, regardless of the laundering application, detergents have a better effect on white fabrics, while they can usually damage black and colored fabrics. High quality laundry detergent is not really intended to be comfy with all fabrics, but it has a special formula designed for special applications.
In the future, when you are searching the best laundry detergent which is available on the market, make sure to go with the one that is specially created for the type and application that best suits the washer’s operating system.
