Tips to Prevent Washing Machine Problems
Small habits go a long way:
- Don’t overload — follow the weight limit on the drum door
- Clean the filter every 1–2 months to prevent drainage issues
- Use the right detergent — front-loaders need low-foam (HE) detergent
- Leave the door ajar after washing to prevent mould and bad smells
- Wipe the door seal regularly to avoid rubber deterioration
- Check pockets — coins and keys damage the drum and pump
- Balance the machine — an uneven floor causes excessive vibration and bearing wear
- Don’t ignore error codes — they often signal small faults before they become expensive
