How many clothes should be put in the washing machine? The easiest way to estimate the volume of dry clothes

What is 1 washing volume on a washing machine?

The washing load on the washing machine is the total maximum amount of dry laundry that the washing machine can wash in one wash. For example, for an 8.5 kg washing machine, you are only allowed to wash 8.5 kg of clothes at most once (without water).

However, you should only put the number of clothes from 70 – 80% of the washing volume listed on the machine to improve washing efficiency and increase the life of the washing machine. For example, for a 7 kg washing machine, it is best to wash only 5-6 kg/time.

Washing more than the maximum load of the washing machine will not work

2 Is the washing volume listed on the washing machine for dry or wet clothes?

The washing volume parameter that the manufacturer states on the washing machine are calculated for the volume of dry clothes in 1 wash. Because, after putting dry clothes in the drum, the machine will add more water to a certain level before starting the washing process.

Therefore, if you put wet clothes in the drum instead of dry clothes, the amount of water that is discharged into the drum will be less than usual.

3 How much washing machine should I buy?

Currently, on the market, there are many models of washing machines with different washing capacity levels. To know how much washing machine to buy, you should be based on your washing needs and the number of family members using it.

Should choose to buy a washing machine with a washing volume suitable for the number of family members

Specifically, if you have a small family or a small amount of laundry, using a washing machine with a large washing volume will waste water and electricity. On the contrary, if your family has a large number of members and has a high need for washing, but chooses to buy a washing machine with a small washing volume, it will not meet the needs of users. Therefore, you should refer to the appropriate washing volume according to the number of family members as follows:

Family	Characteristics	Suitable washing volume
From 2 – 3 people	Singles, or young newlyweds
From 3 – 5 people	Families with few members, or with children with high washing needs
From 5-7 people	Family with many members
Over 7 people	Family with many generations living together

4 How to estimate the average weight of dry clothes

The second, the more reliable way is to use a fabric weight estimation table to determine the volume of dry cleaning. You can look it up in the table below:
