Currently, modern washing machine models, including the LG Inverter 18 Kg TV2518DV3B, all come equipped with the hot water washing function. However, the majority of users are unaware of this feature, especially when it comes to stain removal. Let's explore the benefits and reasons for using the hot water mode on washing machines with Mytour!
Advantages of the hot water washing mode on washing machines
According to scientific research, washing clothes in water with a temperature of 40 degrees Celsius or higher, or drying them under direct sunlight, is essential for eliminating bacteria and mold. Therefore, using the hot water washing mode on your washing machine helps clean stubborn stains, preserves the color of your clothes, and eliminates harmful bacteria and mold that can adversely affect the user's health.

Clothes will be cleaner with the hot wash mode
The hot water washing mode is described as performing six hand washing actions: pounding, compressing, spinning, kneading, scrubbing, and flipping. This ensures cleaner clothes and can protect the fabric from damage and wear. Additionally, the steam spray washing technology helps to quickly increase and maintain the temperature inside the washing drum, contributing to a more thorough cleaning result for users.
Does using the hot water washing mode make the washing machine faster?
Most users worry that hot water might damage the washing machine. But fret not! Washing machines equipped with hot water washing and antibacterial steam washing technologies are designed with stainless steel drums, unaffected by exposure to hot water and detergents. Moreover, combining the Tub Clean+ function with the hot water washing mode not only saves time in machine maintenance but also ensures the thorough elimination of bacteria and mold on clothes, leading to significant water and energy savings.

Temperature settings when using the hot water mode on washing machines
Depending on different fabric types, choose the appropriate temperature setting:
- Temperature from 30°C to below 40°C: suitable for thin, easily torn, color-fading fabrics, items made from synthetic fibers, and pure wool. With this temperature, these types of clothes will be effectively cleaned without the risk of damaging the material.
- Temperature 40°C: the normal and most common washing temperature in many washing machine models today. This temperature is suitable for washing most fabrics such as cotton, pure wool, fleece, blankets, bed sheets, etc.
- Temperature from 40°C to 60°C: suitable for fabrics in direct contact with the skin, such as underwear, towels, diapers, or synthetic fiber clothing. The temperature range from 40°C to below 60°C is an appropriate choice.
- Temperature 60°C: At this temperature, consumers can use it to wash cotton clothing, colorfast fabric, cotton material, and lightly soiled white cotton fabric without causing damage.
- Temperature from 60°C to below 95°C: This temperature range is suitable for children's clothing or fade-resistant fabrics like dress shirts, sleepwear, and white cotton fabric.
Considerations when using the hot water washing mode on washing machines
- Depending on the characteristics of each washing machine model, the fabric material, as well as the laundry load, may require different temperature settings. However, for optimal washing efficiency, users should only wash a smaller load, typically 1 to 2 kg, compared to regular washing.
- It is advisable to inspect and categorize the fabric materials of clothes to choose the appropriate temperature before starting the wash.
- Avoid using the hot water washing mode for fabrics prone to color fading.
