Today we are going to discuss spin!
Because yes the spin speed is important when doing laundry.
Yes, we don't want to damage the laundry...
It is for this reason that it is necessary to select the correct spin speed of your program.
But it's not that simple.
Because it all depends on the type of clothes you wash.
Let's see together which spin cycle to choose so as not to damage your laundry . Watch:
Cotton and other natural materials are relatively thick fibers.
As a result, they retain water easily.
But since they are quite strong, it is no problem to use a high spin speed.
So you can choose a quick spin programme :from 900 to 1400 rpm.
This type of program eliminates water efficiently and produces laundry that dries faster.
This concerns in particular all household linen (sheets, towels and tea towels), but also certain t-shirts.
Please note that jeans do not necessarily fall into this category.
Synthetic and mixed fabrics have the advantage of drying quickly.
As they are quite thin, they do not retain water.
And another good news, they are also mostly quite resistant.
Result, you can choose an intermediate spin speed :800 to 1000 rpm.
It is a good alternative, because it allows you not to damage your laundry while having a satisfactory spin.
In addition, you save electricity.
Because these programs take less time and require less energy.
But that's not all.
The laundry comes out less wrinkled with a gentler spin.
And that's great for quick and easy ironing!
Sportswear, sweaters, t-shirts, sweatshirts, pants, skirts...
Many clothes are now made of synthetic fibers.
Finally, some materials are really fragile.
We think of wool, lace...
Choose a slower spin speed :600 to 800 rpm, no more.
Do you want to wash sweaters, delicate shirts or blouses or fine lingerie?
So choose this spin speed.
In this case, the drying time will be longer. Because the laundry remains waterlogged.
Think about it!
1. Be careful, some clothes should not be spun at all .
You will then see this symbol above on the label of your suit.
This is the case with silk or cashmere pieces, for example.
They are often clothes that must be washed by hand or with very gentle and cold programs.
2. Do not forget to look at the labels of your laundry to know the composition of the fabric and to choose the right washing and spinning program.
Choose the indications program according to the indications on the label.
Your washing machine then automatically adapts the spin programme.
Spinning is an indispensable function of your washing machine program.
It is what allows you to remove a large part of the water of your clothes after washing.
The drum of the washing machine starts spinning at full speed.
And the pump drains the water.
As a result, the laundry gets rid of a large part of its moisture.
Spin speed is measured in revolutions per minute :rpm.
The higher the rpm, the more intense the spin.
