Iron
If iron is present in the water, the clothes may become
an all-over yellow or they may be stained with brown
or orange spots or streaks. Iron is not always visible in
the water.
Solutions to Iron Problems
The installation of a water softener will remove small
amounts of iron from the water supply. The
installation of an iron filter may be necessary for more
severe cases. If the iron comes from the pipes, it may
be sufficient just to let the water run into the empty
washer for about one minute. This may help to clear
the pipes. Spin this water out of the wash drum before
starting the wash.
If iron comes from the water heater, drain the heater
occasionally to remove the rust.
Iron with Chlorine Bleach
The use of chlorine bleach with water that contains
iron will make the rust discoloration worse. Use an
all fabric bleach.
Energy
You can save energy when washing by following a few
guidelines:
1. Heating water accounts for the greatest energy
expense when washing. Save on heating water by
using cold rinses.
2. Wash full loads, but do not overload.
3. Soak heavily soiled items to reduce wash times.
4. Select a shorter wash time for lightly soiled
items.
