to contents ↑What is liquid laundry detergent?
Coming to a household chemistry store, most housewives get lost in choosing the most suitable detergent among the variety of modern assortment. Liquid laundry detergent powders are gelled and are sold as highly concentrated formulations. It is due to the high concentration of the composition that it is possible to significantly reduce its consumption to achieve an excellent result.
Since this tool is only gaining popularity among housewives, many people have a question: how to use liquid powder in an automatic machine? In fact, there are two ways to pour detergent into the unit:
- A special tray, which is located in front-loading machines on the front panel, and in vertical-type machines, is built into the sunroof.
Important! For this type of load, the liquid washing powder should not have a very high density. Otherwise, the substance will be poorly washed off the surface of the tray, which will lead to lower washing intensity, as well as adversely affect the performance of your washing machine.
- A more effective method is to add liquid powder for washing clothes directly into the drum of the machine. This application is especially relevant for thick products with a high concentration.

This will contribute to a good dissolution of the substance and greater washing efficiency. Variants of liquid products that are packaged in special capsules by the manufacturer are very practical.
Which powder is better - liquid or dry?
Most housewives are quite skeptical of various new products in the household chemicals market and prefer old and tested dry powders for washing clothes. However, dry matter very often causes an allergic reaction in family members and often has a rather unpleasant heavy odor.
Important! Often after washing, it turns out that the powder was not completely rinsed from a special compartment, and this leads to insufficient rinsing of things and the appearance of unpleasant white stains on the fabric. Such troubles are associated with the viscosity of the wet powder, which interferes with its correct and unhindered washing out. By the way, this factor also depends on the quality of the product you have chosen. So if you are still more comfortable with the familiar granular version, be sure to check out our ratings of such products:
