What is a bio-enzymatic phase in a washing machine

Progress in such a simple area as household laundry has gone far enough. New washing powders and concentrates appear on the market, which have excellent characteristics and the ability to successfully wash even the most inveterate and difficult stains. BIO care in the washing machine is another step forward, which involves washing clothes with special powders.

We decided to dedicate this review to BIO-care for linen. We will analyze what the BIO-phase is, how it works, and what is needed to successfully wash difficult stains.

What does the BIO care function mean in a washing machine

Wash schedule with bio phase
There is a misconception that the effectiveness of washing powder and the entire washing process depends primarily on the temperature of the water - the higher it is, the better the results. Because of this, it was believed that washing machines with a maximum washing temperature of +95 degrees are more efficient than their counterparts, washing clothes at a temperature of +90 degrees.

Time and progress have put everything in its place - it turned out that temperature is not the most important indicator of efficiency. In addition, the vast majority of modern fabrics simply cannot withstand such abuse, since even 90 degrees of heat is almost boiling water.What will help improve the quality of washing? For this, we are responsible for modern washing powders, which contain biological additives - enzymes.

The BIO-phase in the washing machine, provided that enzyme powder is used, copes well with organic contaminants. Enzymes break down proteins, fats and carbohydrates almost instantly - that is, stains left by food. But there is one "but!" - BIO-powders lose some of their properties at high temperatures, therefore, when heated above +40 degrees, they do not differ from ordinary powders.

The BIO-phase in modern washing machines operates at +40 degrees. The main washing phase lasts about 15 minutes, during which the specified temperature is maintained in the tub. Machines with BIO-phase are equipped with a separate program designed for washing with BIO-powders.

By turning on the program with the BIO-phase, we activate the enzymes, which begin to actively break down fats, proteins and carbohydrates. Due to this, the tissues quickly disappear cherry stains, raspberries, strawberries, mulberries, red plums, wine, food coloring and other products with coloring properties. If you have encountered dish towel washing problem, then you will understand the beauty of bio-washing. Blurted on your favorite shirt with fat or don't know how to remove grass stains from jeans? Use the BIO-phase - enzymes will do their best to remove such difficult pollution.

The BIO-phase in some washing machines is implemented in another way that increases the efficiency of washing - first, the machine is washing at +40 degrees, when enzymes are working, after which the temperature rises to 60 degrees and above (depending on the program parameters).Thanks to this, the full spectrum of active substances falls on pollution - this makes it possible to cope with even the most impenetrable stains.

Which powder is suitable for bio-washing

BIO powder
You can buy BIO-powder for washing clothes in washing machines with a BIO-phase in ordinary hardware stores and supermarkets. If you choose products of the most famous brands, it will be Ariel Aplha powder, which contains the necessary enzymes. It is highly effective and successfully copes with the elimination of complex stains of various origins.

Many laundry detergents with enzymes are produced by little-known brands:

  • caiqi;
  • lion;
  • Tropicana;
  • Sankyo Yushi;
  • Mitsuei;
  • Ecover.
BIO powders are good for removing dried blood stains from clothes, provided they are used in low temperature water.

With enzyme detergents, you can always count on great results.

How to activate the BIO-phase function on the washing machine

Selecting a program on the washing machine
The BIO enzyme phase is activated on washing machines by selecting the appropriate program. We turn on the machine, select the desired mode, fill in the pre-purchased washing powder with enzymes, then load the laundry and press the start button. As soon as the water in the tank warms up to +40 degrees, the enzymes will begin their work. As a result, we get clean linen without dirt and stains.

The BIO-phase program is given to an increasing number of modern washing machines. But what about those whose machine is not endowed with such a program? Nothing wrong with that - we will be able to activate the BIO-phase in almost any device. As we remember, enzymes are activated at a temperature of +40 degrees.And this means that for washing clothes with a BIO-phase, we can use any program that works at 40 degrees Celsius - almost any washing machine can wash at this temperature.

Having knowledge of how and under what conditions the BIO-enzyme phase works, we can activate it even in a saucepan - the main thing is not to overheat the water with the laundry immersed in it above +40 degrees.
