Is it worth getting a smart washing machine? What problems do they solve?
Now, more than ever, making sure you have a product with the smart capabilities to support your household’s needs is so important. Over the years, the way we live has completely shifted, with many people now spending more time at home, being even more reliant on their appliances. The Internet of Things concept has become a mammoth as households are increasingly adopting smart appliances.
What’s more, as energy bills continue to rise it is fundamental for you to find an appliance that maximises your savings, through its energy-efficient technologies.
Managing washing machine noise
Washing machine noise can be one of the biggest irritants. LG always challenges itself to bring innovative solutions for users. Our washing machines feature shock absorbers to soak up vibrations during heavy wash loads and spinning, so now you can wash your clothes quietly. Users will no longer need to shut the door when making a call whilst the washing machine is on, as the unit will be quietly ticking away, causing no household disruption.
How to manage your washing machine energy efficiency
Several LG smart technologies featured in our washing machines help you to manage your energy use. Our ThinQ™ technology gives you the ability to manage your washing on the go, via your smartphone, allowing you to turn off the machine when it’s not in use. Whilst LG’s Direct Drive™ inverter technology limits the amount of excess energy your washing machine releases when it’s on a spin cycle. At LG, we are always thriving to make our range of washing machines as energy-efficient as possible, with a number of our models being A-rated, including the FHP1209Z9B and FHP1411Z9B.
How to use smart technologies to manage allergy symptoms
Many washing machines, including our LG models, have an allergy care cycle that can be enabled, this cycle utilises steam technology to sanitise clothes and remove any unwanted allergens, whilst also sterilising any bacteria to make sure your clothes have the ultimate clean feel.
Our FHD1057STB Washer Dryer and FHP1411Z9P Washing Machine is 5-star rated by BEE (Bureau of Energy Efficiency). It uses Steam+ technology to eliminate 99.9% of allergens that can cause allergy or respiratory issues.
How to limit fabric damage with your washing machine
As we try to increase the longevity of clothes and move towards being more sustainable in our clothing habits, limiting fabric damage is paramount. LG’s latest washing machines all adopt AI DD™ technology which uses deep learning technology to deliver improved laundry results and minimal fabric damage. This is possible because AI DD™ technology determines the volume and characteristics of each load, factoring in fabric sensitivity and load weight to make sure that clothes are washed with the optimum cycle pattern.
