If you have heavily soiled clothes, like muddy pants, Maytag's deep water wash cycle is just what you need. This cycle uses more water and works with their PowerWash® agitator to break up even the most dried-on messes.
The normal cycle is a bit more aggressive, so it's ideal for sturdy fabrics, like denim, bedding, towels, and most clothing. As the name implies, the heavy duty cycle should be reserved for heavily soiled items since it's longer and uses a high-speed spin.
For more water when you want it, the Deep Water Wash option offers a maximum fill to help rinse away soils, while the PowerWash® agitator provides concentrated cleaning and robust wash action to remove tough stains.
Starting in 2019, many top-load washers offer a DeepClean cycle that helps boost cleaning power by up to 67% (compared to the Colors or Whites cycle). With longer agitation and soak times, this cycle helps clean even the most stubborn stains, like dirt or grass.
Run the biggest cycle at the hottest temperature or use the “clean tub” setting on the washer. At the end of the cycle, add vinegar to the liquid dispenser tray or washer tub. Use 2 cups for a front-loading machine or 1 quart for a top-loading machine. Run another hot water wash cycle.
Deep cleaning is used to treat gum disease, usually when it has reached an advanced stage. In theory you should only need one deep clean, provided you maintain good oral hygiene after having your teeth deep cleaned. Regular visits for non-deep dental cleaning are also required to prevent gum disease from relapsing.
The Deep Fill option (not to be confused with the Deep Rinse option) will add additional water to the wash load regardless of whether you used a manual or a load-sensing fill. The Deep Fill feature is recommended for special case loads rather than normal everyday use.
If Deep Fill and Deep Rinse are both selected, the amount of rinse water will match the Deep Fill amount of water.
A Heavy Duty wash cycle, which helps handle heavily soiled items, can take anywhere from 1 to just over 2 hours to wash heavily soiled items.
Normal. With high agitation and a lengthy cycle, the Normal wash cycle is actually the most intense option.
With high agitation and a lengthy cycle, the Normal cycle is the most intense wash cycle. Select the Normal cycle for everyday laundry items made of cotton, linen, and durable synthetics, such as sheets, towels, T-shirts, socks, and underwear.
The normal cycle is a vigorous wash cycle due to its high agitation and lengthy cycle. This cycle uses warm water with a high spin speed for moderately soiled clothing made of cotton, linen, and other mixed fabrics. Depending on your machine, a normal cycle can run up to an hour.
Washing clothes in cold water goes a long way toward preserving the “off-the-rack” size. Avoiding heavy duty cycles, fast spins and high-heat drying can also prevent shrinkage. Use delicate cycles instead, and place delicate clothes in a mesh laundry bag for added protection.
To keep your black clothes and black jeans dark, wash your garments inside out in cold water on a delicate cycle. Be sure to use a low heat setting in the dryer or air dry to prevent fading. Remember to always check the care tag on your clothing for proper washing and care instructions.
How Many Rinse Cycles Do You Need to Use? As noted above, the rinse cycle is normally part of a larger washing routine, so you only need to use one automatic rinse cycle in most cases. This single rinse cycle should be able to dislodge the lasting grime and soapy/waxy residue from most fabric surfaces.
Yes you can. Remember, fabric softener is optional.
Some machines have a separate hand wash cycle for ultra-delicate items, and a bulky cycle for blankets or pillows, as well as additional cycle options such as 'Heavy Duty' or even 'Whitest Whites', which provide a pre-soak and add extra water.
Some agitator models have a Deep Water Wash option and also have an Auto Sensing option. If your model has this, you can set the Water Level knob to the Deep Water Wash setting and the washer will fill to the maximum water level.
You could have a faulty lid or water level switch, or your hot and cold water supplies could be turned off or have kinks in the hoses. A clogged water inlet screen or a malfunctioning electronic control could also be the reason a washer isn't filling with water.
The American Dental Association recommends getting teeth cleaning at least two times per year, but deep cleanings are typically performed as needed. For example, a person who has not had their teeth cleaned by a dentist in years might be advised to get a deep cleaning.
The treatment usually involves careful cleaning below the gums, decontaminating the roots of the teeth to encourage the gums to reattach. This should be performed under local anaesthetic and typically requires up to four sessions with a periodontist or specially trained hygienist.
It is essential to clean your washing machine once a month to avoid bacteria growth, bad smells and residue. You can clean your washing machine with vinegar, baking soda, hydrogen peroxide or Affresh Tabs.
