Washer smells!!!!!!!!?

i keep my washer clean but sometimes when i open it the drum really smells tried running it with no clothes in but nothing helps.Washer smells!!!!!!!!?
Sometimes there is a build up of mould on the inside of the rubber if it is a front loading washing machine. Check inside the rubber and if you see black mould this will be what is causing the smell.


Clean with bleach, apply and leave to soak and clean with a washing up sponge. Then make sure after every wash that the water that collects there is removed with a sponge and kitchen paper, this will stop any further mould appearing and giving you that nasty smell.


I had this too on my machine.





I hope this helpsWasher smells!!!!!!!!?
When a machine has finished it's cycle and is empty, there is quite a lot of water left in the ';guts';, bacteria gets into this water hence the odor. Try putting undiluted bleach in the main drum, about half a cup, this will trickle down and hopefully kill the bugs.


Don't fully close the door, leave ajar, this also helps the seals
I recently suggested this product to a person for their trash cans. I personally used it for the musty smell in my basement. It is called ODO-BAN. It has various uses depending on the ratio mixed but it above all kills bacteria. It states on the bottle that it can be used in with your laundry. It comes in a big gallon jug. Pretty darn good stuff I think. It does have a slight ucalyptus scent. I bought mine at Sam's club
Sometimes you get build up under the top of the washer...the water only goes up so high. I had to take some spray cleaner, let it set..then garden hosed the inside upper edge of the drum (inside, but above the water line).. also could be underneath it(like a spill or a dead mouse), or maybe the drive belt is getting old and burning out if it smell like somethings burning.
Try running a load of whites or rags with bleach through it every so often to kill any odor causing bacteria. When we moved into our rental the washer was all black and gross inside and smelled really bad. I scrubbed it with baking soda, and now every so often I run a load with bleach, and it stays nice and fresh.
I had this problem, it turned out to be the filter that catches all the fluff, bunged up with fluff. Cleaned it out and now all is back to normal. hope this helps.
you can buy washing macchine cleaners from th supermarket here in australia. washing soda also works.
but some lime scale remover and some dish washer cleaner this will clean and flush out any bad smell lying in the base of your washer drum if thast dosent work i think you may have a sewrage back up problem in the waste pipes .
It is not draining properly. The outlet pipe is probably set too high. See the instructions with the washing machine which specifiy a maximum height for the outlet pipe.





If the water does not drain then it sits and gets smelly!
run it with washing poweder on whole wash then leave door ajar
Keep the door open at ALL times. You could try one of the products available in supermarkets. Always dry inside the machine after use.
Run one load in the washer with only bleach on delicate cycle with hot water. After cycle is done run a soak cycle with cold water. It worked on my Maytag washer when I had the same problem.
outlet pipe needs cleaning the one that drains the water away
How old is your washer? Do you have hard water where you live and if so do you have a water softener? Also, you may want to pull out the fabric softener container and thoroughly clean it - it could be growing mildew. We had this problem in our 15-year -old washer then we bought a new one and have had no trouble for 5 years. Hope this helps!
You can buy soda crystals from supermarket for about 60p, it comes in a blue bag. Put about a quarter of the bag directly into the drum and set the machine to a hot wash, let it run the cycle empty. Do this every few months
Run a cycle with HOT bleach water NO CLOTHES Leave the lid up and the smell should go away.
Run the washer without clothes, and put bleach in the water. And try leaving the door open when not in use, so it dries out between loads.
Perhaps not all the water drains away sometimes, and goes stagnant? Only thing I can think of...
aafter your done washing leave the cover up so the machine will dry.
Slosh a good amount of bleach into machine and run empty. When not in use, leave the door ajar - that should fix it.
Make sure the waste pipe is running away and dirty water is not returning into your machine.


If that's OK then put it on boil wash with some white vinegar


sounds strange but it works...................
soda is best but you still need to get a plumber in ,i had that problem in my last house and the clothes stunk sometimes .it is the water coming back into the machine
could be your water
run washer with hot water and a cup of white vinegar it helps to remove the smell
try running it with baking soda
Is your washer a front-loading machine? If so I had the same problem (and, after an internet search, I found that hundreds of others did also!) It was only the towels, not the other clothing. The washer smelled as well as soon as you opened the door. :P





Let me know the brand of your machine. Ours is a Whirlpool Duet. Whirlpool gave me the instructions for this machine in particular.


She said to put the setting to 'heavy duty' which is hot water. Add 2 cups of bleach. Add the extra rinse. Repeat whole process one more time. Also, always let the door cracked open when it's not in use. Wear rubber gloves and clean the seal around the opening....you might be surprised to find some mold there, depending on how long you've had your machine.





She also told me to use hot water more, don't use fabric softeners, dryer sheets are much better. Don't let the wet wash sit too long when the cycle is complete, and, every few washings, use powder detergent. I guess it's more abrasive, and not as gooey as liquid.





Hope this helps!

use Sun liquid laundry detergent. Can I drain my washer on my garden without damaging myself, my garden.

I use Sun liquid laundry detergent. Can I drain my washer on my garden without hurting myself, my garden, or the environment? use Sun liquid laundry detergent. Can I drain my washer on my garden without damaging myself, my garden.
This is called ';grey water'; and we have used it for years on our veggies too..I am 52 with no major illnesses..other than my back from overworked...It is totally bidegradable and they get phospherous from this... I was raised on a farm in the country..Everyone I know has done this for years..I still raise a garden and water it with it..I am on a well and septic system but all of my water from my washer goes to a drain to the garden.. use Sun liquid laundry detergent. Can I drain my washer on my garden without damaging myself, my garden.
I use Sun liquid laundry detergent also.





Although I don't drain my washer into my garden any more, I used to. I've moved and now my washer drainage is set up so that draining it like this isn't possible. I miss being able to do this!





In the past I used washer-water to water everything, including my vegetable garden. Sun doesn't have phosphorous (most detergents don't nowdays anyway), so it won't hurt the environment or your plants.





This sort of water is called ';gray'; water. You may want to look at websites that address this sort of water recycling, such as:


http://organicgardens.suite101.com/artic鈥?/a>


There are some cautions and limitations regarding using gray water, so you'll want to educate yourself before you start.



It is perfectly fine for a flower garden but I wouldn't put it in my vegetable garden. Detergent is environment safe and will not hurt yourself. I also save my dish washing water for my flower bed and they are thriving and booming well. You are actually helping the environment by recycling water.
I'd use the water on the lawn or trees but not on plalnts that you plan to eat just to be on the safe side.

    Will my debit card still work if it went through the washer %26amp; dryer? :(?
    If its not warped from the heat, I think it will work fine.


    Go to the store and try to buy something.


    May I suggest some cookies?


    That way if your card doesn't work, at least you can eat cookies...that should cheer you up.
    Cookies? wow your stupid! my friend puts her card through the dryer all the time and it still works fine, if it doesnt just go get another at your bank it takes two seconds :)

    What is the volume of a cylinder with hole (e.g. washer)?

    V = V₁- V₂





    ===============================





    the volume of a cylinder is:





    height • Area = height • ( π • r² )





    ===============================








    V = ( height • π • R(outside)² ) - ( height • π • R(inside)² )











    simplyfy by factoring out like terms:





    ┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓


    ┃✓ V = height • π • ( R(outside)² - R(inside)² )┃


    ┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛








    ======================================…

    I Hope this Helps❣❣What is the volume of a cylinder with hole (e.g. washer)?
    Volume of cylinder with hole is


    Circular base area x height.


    Circular base area = π [R^2- r^2]


    Volume of cylinder with hole is


    = π [R^2. - r^2] hWhat is the volume of a cylinder with hole (e.g. washer)?
    The volume of this shape (known as an annulus) is simply the volume of the larger cylinder (as if it had no hole) minus the volume of the hole.





    The volume of a cylinder is


    V = π*H*R^2


    where H is the height and R is the radius.





    So, the volume of a cylinder with height H, outer radius R, and inner radius r is:


    V = π*H*(R^2 - r^2)
    Volume = π R² h - π r² h = π h (R² - r²) = π h (R+r)(R-r), where h is the height (thickness) of the cylinder(washer), R is the outer radius and r is the inner radius.
    It is the volume of the outer cylinder minus the volume of the inner cylinder.

    Would it be ok if i put these in the washer?




    http://store.delias.com/item.do?category鈥?/a>





    would it make them look weird? or should i just hand wash them?Would it be ok if i put these in the washer?
    yeah i think it might mess them up a bit, you should probably just hand wash them in the sink Would it be ok if i put these in the washer?
    the heat will deform and melt the rubber sole. also, it would ruin any other things in there. washing cold wouldn help because it would still be too harsh for them the water would pull the soles off. wash them by hand
    Theres always glue on the bottom of the sole. If you wash them, I guess you know what happens! The heat and the water will rip them off or crinkle them and ruin the shape.
    you should hand was them becuz if they go in the washer who knows what'll happen.
    play it safe and hand wash them cos im sure the soles will come off the shoes in the wash
    the only shoes i put in the wash r sneakers so i wouldnt
    i think they'll b ok


    dont put them in the dryer, leave them outside to dry
    i would just hand wash then. thats what i did with my classic vans lol
    i don't think it would hurt them too much
