Washing Machines Need to Be Disinfected to Prevent Secondary Pollution

The inside of the washing machine looks very clean at first glance, but there is a sleeve outside the washing drum, and the washing water flows back and forth between the two interlayers. After a long time, a lot of dirt will adhere to the interlayer. These dirt not only seriously pollute the clothes twice during washing, but also endanger human health. Therefore, we need to clean and disinfect the washing machine frequently. Generally speaking, after the newly purchased washing machine has been used for half a year, you should remember cleaning your washing machine every two or three months.

Put a washing machine with a non-metallic liner into an aqueous solution containing 300ppm to 500ppm (ppm is one part per million) of available chlorine, and turn it on for 3 to 5 minutes to drain it. The washing machine with metal liner is soaked in glutaraldehyde solution with a content of 0.5% to 1% for 10 minutes to 15 minutes and then drained. Because mold is very sensitive to temperature, the survival rate in 35°C water is very low, and it is almost zero in 45°C hot water, so washing with 45°C hot water can also effectively kill mold.
