Definition

What is it: Washing machine maintenance refers to a systematic schedule of cleaning and inspection tasks, such as gasket wiping and filter clearing, aimed at preserving appliance hygiene. In humid environments like Singapore, it also includes periodic professional drum deep cleaning.

What is it used for: It is used to prevent the development of musty smells, black flecks on laundry, and detergent scum layers on the outer drum surface. Consistent maintenance helps avoid expensive restoration and overhauls.
