Clothes Washer Deep Clean: Using CRUX Complete Cream to Extend Your Machine’s Lifespan
Can a Detergent Clean Your Washing Machine Itself?
Yes. Instead of specialty machine cleaners, CRUX Complete Cleaning Cream’s concentrated formula dissolves detergent residue, mineral scale, and bacterial films—restoring drum shine and maintaining 90% cleaning efficiency even in 300 ppm hard water.
Why Deep Cleaning Matters
Over months of washing:
-
Detergent Residue: Powder and liquid detergents leave film on drum surfaces.
-
Mineral Scale: Hard water deposits (300 ppm+) clog pipes and reduce water flow.
-
Odor Buildup: Bacterial and mold films thrive in damp drum interiors.
-
Seal Degradation: Harsh chemicals corrode rubber gaskets, causing leaks.
These issues lower wash quality, increase energy use, and can lead to costly repairs. A preventative deep clean keeps your machine running like new.
