If you do not treat the washing machine correctly, then sooner or later you will need here order a repair.
Using a semi-automatic washing machine with two tanks is extremely easy. Pour hot water into the main tank, pour washing powder into the same place. After that, we send the laundry to the tank, turn on the main wash cycle by setting the time on the mechanical timer. As soon as the machine finishes washing, we send the laundry for rinsing (in a basin, in a bath with clean water). The next stage is spinning in the second tank (there is a centrifuge). After stopping the centrifuge, we will only have to hang out the laundry for final drying.
It would seem that everything is simple, but the inexorable practice broadcasts that loading laundry into a centrifuge is a whole art. Laundry should be laid evenly, leaving no gaps. Dumping in a heap is prohibited - otherwise we will observe strong beats of the centrifuge.
It is also necessary to clarify the features of the spin cycle - it is performed at very high speeds, so there is no place for delicate fabrics in the centrifuge tank.
As for semi-automatic machines with one tank, the washing process is similar here. The exception is that users do not need to transfer laundry from one bin to another.By the way, some models of semi-automatic washing machines have built-in heaters, which eliminates the need to prepare hot water in other ways.
The presence of drying is a definite plus, because it solves the problem with the lack of space for the final drying of the laundry.In this regard, the owners of wide loggias and balconies, as well as people living in the private sector and having their own spacious yards, benefit. If there is no balcony in the apartment or it is very small, it remains to dry the clothes on a room dryer. And such a dryer takes up a lot of space and slows down the drying process.
