Learn what the LG washer tub clean cycle does.
A lot of folks don’t know this, but your washing machine have a setting on the dial called “Tub Clean”. Want to see if it actualy cleans the tub? Or do you think it just spins water? It’s supposed to automatically cleans the tub for you.
How the Cycle Works
It’s intended as a self-cleaner, too. It aims at the interior and exterior of the tub. That’s an area you typically can’t even clean manualy. There’s no way to use a rag there.
The feature will remove detergent film. It will get rid of other buildup. Mildew is a frequent issue. So it handles odors. It covers everything. You won’t have to fear missed spot.
That’s what the machine is for.
It works harder. Water pressure is greater. There is more flow. You’ll know it right away. It wash at a high temperature. It is not a light rinsing.
The cycle time is long. The key is forceful water flow. Hard on the surfaces. You’re thinking it’s gonna be a soft washing job. Wrong. Forcefully. Pushing against the dirt.
This helps remove buildup.
The biggest thing here is time. The cycle is longer, which is normal. It is typically on the hour (1-2). At one point I saw 1:12 left. Just have to wait it out. It is not something you can rush. Patience are required.
Gives enough time for the pressure and heat to work. Doesn’t go deep when short cycled. This one does. May think it will be quick. It’s not.
It’s relentless. No break in action. Non-stop thrust. And that’s aided by their DirectDrive technology. Consistent, continuous power.
Water displacement is in full view. It is whirling like crazy. Dirt and debris is thrown into suspension. It was initialy murky. It was followed by clarification. The residue is removed. The outcome was impressive.
That’s a good reason to use it in your laundry room. The lingering mildew odor will be gone.
Most people use liquid or pod detergent. Those deposits build up over time. They leave residue behind. That builds up and coats the tub. Your clothes don’t get as clean.
It doesn’t help the machine keep itself clean. It breaks the loop. It resets laundry room.
Add nothing, as no detergent is required.
It’s self contained. It works based off its own process. The pressure break up the film. The heat kills the bacteria. The time penetrates. Add nothing. Press the button. Let it work.
And the proof is in the pudding. Fresh as a drum. It is spot free. The smell is gone. Feels like a brand new machine.
Perhaps you used to clean it yourself. It is boring. It is tedious. Now, this is automatic. It saves time. It runs overnight. Set it and forget it. It is done when you wake up. Is that good enough?
That’s related to the 99.9% Allergy Care with Steam, which helps create a clean environment. The ThinQ technology watches over the process. There are no errors for you to see. It runs smoothy.
The spin speed is high. Water is extracted well. The tub is left dry. There is no dampness. There can be no mold growth there.
The cycle prevents any future issue. It helps maintain hygiene. Use it each month. It keeps the machine running well. There are no issues. It’s reliable.
It’s engineering. Not magic. It’s pressure, heat and time. And they combine to do their thing.
The LG guys did a good job of designing this. You’ll benefit from all of this. Use it more. Totally worth waiting for. Two hours is nothing. Your clean clothes are everything.
Dirty washers ruin your clothes. That’s fixed. You’ll be happy. Simple process. No complicated steps. Just results.
