Sorting the laundry correctly\">1. Sorting the laundry correctly<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you can start the actual washing process, you will need to do a little bit of preparation first! It is best to sort your laundry by <\/span><b>color<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>material<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Light, dark, colorful &#8211; with this simple classification you can pre-sort your laundry best. Washing the same or similar colors together is a great thing to do as they will not stain each other or get discolored. Be careful with new clothes, especially those with strong colors. Before putting new clothes into the washing machine for the first time, test it with a short hand wash in the sink to avoid it staining all of your other shirts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sorting by texture is especially important when washing fine fabrics: lace, silk or real wool, for example. These require low temperatures and a lower spin than &#8220;normal&#8221; shirts. For delicate underwear, it is also advisable to use <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/guppyfriend.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">washing bags<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in order to prevent the delicate material from getting caught in other parts.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='hr av-67ddri-41246adb82eb20f9271331161b8c66cb hr-short  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_one_half  hr-left'><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class='flex_column_table av-6kn5ly-97d7b0311ea64352f2c5408ed97957c0 sc-av_one_half av-equal-height-column-flextable'>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-6kn5ly-97d7b0311ea64352f2c5408ed97957c0\">\n.flex_column.av-6kn5ly-97d7b0311ea64352f2c5408ed97957c0{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 30px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-6kn5ly-97d7b0311ea64352f2c5408ed97957c0 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_one_half  first flex_column_table_cell av-equal-height-column av-align-middle  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-60022e-3056b2e5cc65feac7318f4cf52b2daee '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2 id=\"2.

Washing at 60 degrees is advised for these wash cycles to hygienically clean your laundry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Easy-care<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This wash cycle is a real all-rounder! You can wash almost all of your clothes with it. Washing at 30 degrees is usually sufficient. Textiles made from mixed materials are particularly good at this washing program!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Delicates<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the name suggests, the delicates program is recommended for delicate fabrics such as blouses, dresses, skirts, but you can also wash underwear and socks with this program too. Bras made of lace can also be put in, but it is best to use a laundry bag for this. Washing your delicates at 30 degrees will be the right choice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Wool \/ Hand wash<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This program is extremely gentle and well suited for very sensitive materials. It is a cold wash program (up to 30 degrees). In addition, your textiles are not spun here, which is particularly important with wool, as it will otherwise shrink. Caution: because of the missing spin your laundry is often very wet after this wash cycle and can drip when hanging up. However, wool sweaters should not be hung up to dry anyways, but laid out flat!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='hr av-67ddri-41246adb82eb20f9271331161b8c66cb hr-short  avia-builder-el-20  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  hr-left'><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-jy4ae4sq-6ab8a152f2767636b4ec976215df964a '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2 id=\"3. Choosing the right detergent\">3. Choosing the right detergent<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you choose the scent of lavender or apple for your laundry detergent is entirely up to you and your preferences, but there are a few other things to consider when choosing a detergent. There is a separate detergent for almost every wash program. If you don&#8217;t have a lot of storage space or don&#8217;t have the budget for a complete laundry room equipment, we recommend that you keep two simple questions in mind when buying detergent: Do I have a lot of sensitive fabrics (silk, wool, etc.)? Which colors dominate my wardrobe?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Washing colored laundry is usually easier than washing white or dark colors. Universal, heavy-duty or colored detergents can be used for Cotton and Synthetics and for the easy-care program, wool and mild detergents should be used for more sensitive fabrics! Powder detergents are particularly suitable for white colors, as these often contain bleach and contribute to a long-lasting, fresh white color. Warning: the bleach in the detergent does not pose a health risk, but is still bad for the environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your laundry is heavily soiled, it is advisable to treat stains by hand before putting them in the washing machine. The best way to treat grease stains is with a little grease-dissolving dish wash soap. Simply apply the product to the area that needs to be treated shortly before the wash cycle, let it sit for a few minutes and then, without rinsing, put it in the washing machine as normal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regarding the dosage of your detergent, it is best to read what is recommended directly on the detergent packaging or choose the amount of detergent based on the contamination of your laundry!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='hr av-67ddri-41246adb82eb20f9271331161b8c66cb hr-short  avia-builder-el-22  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_one_half  hr-left'><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class='flex_column_table av-2g99i-e0e275a464f5ebe3a043892ff33dfd7a sc-av_one_half av-equal-height-column-flextable'>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-2g99i-e0e275a464f5ebe3a043892ff33dfd7a\">\n.flex_column.av-2g99i-e0e275a464f5ebe3a043892ff33dfd7a{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 30px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-2g99i-e0e275a464f5ebe3a043892ff33dfd7a av_one_half  avia-builder-el-23  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_one_half  first flex_column_table_cell av-equal-height-column av-align-middle  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-k3r9zx38-d5326c1d46a6e1a853a631c106bdd3dc\">\n.avia-image-container.av-k3r9zx38-d5326c1d46a6e1a853a631c106bdd3dc img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-k3r9zx38-d5326c1d46a6e1a853a631c106bdd3dc .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-k3r9zx38-d5326c1d46a6e1a853a631c106bdd3dc av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-24  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  av-small-hide av-mini-hide av-has-copyright av-copyright-always'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-160201 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-160201 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/www.stuwo.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/frau-w\u00e4sche-aufh\u00e4ngen.jpg\" alt='' title='frau-w\u00e4sche-aufh\u00e4ngen'  height=\"1333\" width=\"2000\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stuwo.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/frau-w\u00e4sche-aufh\u00e4ngen.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.stuwo.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/frau-w\u00e4sche-aufh\u00e4ngen-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.stuwo.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/frau-w\u00e4sche-aufh\u00e4ngen-1030x686.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/www.stuwo.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/frau-w\u00e4sche-aufh\u00e4ngen-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.stuwo.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/frau-w\u00e4sche-aufh\u00e4ngen-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.stuwo.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/frau-w\u00e4sche-aufh\u00e4ngen-1500x1000.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.stuwo.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/frau-w\u00e4sche-aufh\u00e4ngen-705x470.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/div><small class=\"avia-copyright\">Air-drying your laundry ensures it won\u2019t shrink \u2013 and saves energy at the same time! \u00a9Adobe Stock<\/small><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class='av-flex-placeholder'><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-6kn5ly-a54534f37dc51cbf0eb6a4b304fdf653\">\n.flex_column.av-6kn5ly-a54534f37dc51cbf0eb6a4b304fdf653{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 30px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-6kn5ly-a54534f37dc51cbf0eb6a4b304fdf653 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-25  el_after_av_one_half  el_before_av_hr  flex_column_table_cell av-equal-height-column av-align-middle  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-60022e-3056b2e5cc65feac7318f4cf52b2daee '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2 id=\"4.

Your apartment is simply too small for a washing machine and dryer, or do you simply not come to wash in your shared apartment because your roommates keep using the machine? In these cases, it is worth going to the laundromat! In most bigger cities, there are great offers for washing clothes and often the detergent is even included in the wash cycle, so you don&#8217;t have to worry about that anymore!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your first own home is in a dormitory, you&#8217;ve hit the jackpot! Most <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stuwo.at\/en\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">student homes<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, including <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stuwo.at\/en\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">STUWO<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, offer their residents their own laundromats. Here you don&#8217;t have to ask yourself: \u201cWhen is the best time to do the laundry?\u201d You can use the washing machine and dryer around the clock without disturbing anyone! The tumble dryer saves you time, but it consumes huge amounts of electricity and is therefore not particularly sustainable. We recommend that you hang up your laundry if you can. In summer, it is a good idea to do this outside in the garden, if possible. Otherwise you can use the laundry room in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stuwo.at\/en\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">student dormitories<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or community buildings.
