\n- Cold water washes less effectively. Detergents dissolve slower, leaving residues.
<\/li>\n\n\n\n - Heavy fabrics dominate. Quilts, woollens, and layered clothes strain the drum.
<\/li>\n\n\n\n - Closed windows mean less ventilation. Any leftover moisture in the drum turns into odour.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
The result? Clothes that smell damp, longer drying times, and a machine that feels sluggish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A drum clean is not a luxury before winter. It\u2019s maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The One Hack Every Indian Home Needs Before Winter<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThink of your washing machine<\/a> drum as a kitchen utensil. If you don\u2019t scrub the kadhai after making halwa, the residue hardens. Same with the drum detergent, lint, and micro-residues collected on the inner surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe hack is simple:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Run a self-clean cycle (most modern machines, including Haier\u2019s front-loads, have it).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. If not, run an empty hot water cycle with a descaling tablet or white vinegar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Wipe the rubber gasket and door seal the spots where moisture hides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It takes less than an hour. But it resets your machine for the whole season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
