The Nifty Repairman's Guide: How to Sanitize Your Washer Dryer Combo

Hey there folks! Here I am again- your friendly neighborhood repairman, with another handy set of tips and suggestions. You've trusted me with your squeaky doors, leaky roofs and even fixed your child's first bicycle. I'm back to dish out the secret sauce for one of my specialty tasks – sanitizing your washer dryer combo.

Cleaning Those Bubbles: A Quick Walkthrough

Yes, your everyday heroes, washer dryers can get dirty too! Diligently washing and drying your clothes relentlessly, they absorb all the grime and lint possible, requiring quite a bit of maintenance. Here I am, rolling up my sleeves and delving into the nitty-gritty to help you sanitize your washer dryer combo.

Step 1: Gather Your Cleaning Essentials

Sanitizing is more than just cleaning. It's about going to war against those nasty germs and winning it too. Your secret weapons for this mission would be white vinegar, baking soda, and a scrubbing sponge. If your machine has a stainless steel drum, replace the vinegar with bleach. And don't forget your trusty pair of rubber gloves!

Step 2: Attack the Washer

Start by doing an empty load with hot water. Add two cups of vinegar or bleach, and let the machine run until it's filled up. Pause the cycle and let the mixture sit for an hour – this is when the magic happens, and the grime begins to loosen!

Once the hour has passed, add half a cup of baking soda and restart the cycle. Once it's over, wipe the inside of your washer with a clean cloth.

Step 3: Setting Things Right with the Dryer

Moving on to the second part of our dynamic duo – the dryer. Cleaning the lint trap is the first thing to consider. Did you know lint build-up can cause fires? Vacuum the lint trap and the area that holds it.

If the dryer doesn't seem sparkling clean just yet, fill a bucket with warm water, add a dash of dish soap, and voila! Use a cloth or a soft sponge to scrub the internal drum clean, then wipe the drum dry with a clean cloth.

Step 4: External Love

The exteriors need love too! Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Dry it with a soft cloth to prevent water marks from setting in.

Patrol Regularly: Comrade Washer Dryer Needs You!

Sanitizing your washer dryer combo is not a one-time job – regular maintenance and cleaning can keep it running efficiently, extending its lifetime. Save this guide and follow it every month; you and your washer-dryer will have many happy wash days ahead.

Keeping Germs at Bay: More Tips to Consider

While a deep cleanse every month is beneficial, regular practices also help reduce the build-up of bacteria and germs.

  1. Always leave the washer dryer door ajar after use, allowing it to dry out.
  2. Remove wet clothing promptly to prevent molding and odors.
  3. Clean up spills and stains immediately.

The Final Rinse

Here we are, folks. Appliance maintenance is a small act of love for your home. By regularly sanitizing your washer dryer, you not only keep your appliance functioning properly, but also promise a hygienic environment for your clothes. Trust me, even your garments will feel happier in a clean washer dryer, and happiness is what I am all about.

So, pop in your favourite album, roll up the sleeves, and let's have an incredible washer dryer cleaning session. Always remember, your friendly neighborhood repairman is just a blog post away if you need any help.
