Using too much or too little detergent can lead to poor washing results, including residue on clothes, bad odours, or ineffective stain removal. To get the best clean, always consider the following:
1. Level of Dirt on Clothes
• Heavily soiled clothes require more detergent.
• Around 70% of dirt on clothes comes from the body (e.g., sweat, oils, dead skin), not just visible stains.
Tip: If clothes smell musty or still feel dirty, try increasing the detergent slightly next time.
2. Size of the Load
• Larger loads = more dirt = more detergent.
• Always follow dosage guidelines based on your machine’s drum size.
Tip: Overloading the machine can reduce effectiveness, even with the right amount of detergent.
3. Water Hardness in Singapore
• Singapore has soft water, meaning the water contains low levels of minerals like calcium and magnesium.
• This makes detergent more effective, and there's no need to increase dosage for water hardness.
Tip: Avoid using too much detergent — since soft water doesn’t neutralise excess detergent well, it can lead to soap residue on clothes or in the machine.
