Washing machines with water tank Gorenje

The Gorenje company is well known to the people of our country. She supplies a wide variety of washing machines, including models with a water tank. Therefore, it is very important to know how to select and use such a technique.

A characteristic feature of the Gorenje technique is unique galvanized body. It is highly resistant to a wide variety of mechanical and chemical influences. Washing machines of this brand began to be produced in the 1960s. And in a matter of a few years, their total release has already amounted to hundreds of thousands of copies. Now the share of Gorenje appliances accounts for about 4% of the household appliances market in Europe.

The striking design inherent in the products of this company has attracted a lot of consumers for many decades.... The company supplies washing machines of various sizes. They will perfectly fit into a country house and a relatively small city apartment. You can select solutions with a wide variety of capacities, taking into account individual needs. Among the negative properties of the Gorenje technique are the following:

• rather high cost (above average);
• serious difficulties with repairs;
• high probability of breakage after 6 years of operation.

As for washing machines with a water tank, they differ relatively little from conventional automatic models. They allow you to do without connecting to the main water supply. Such models also work well in places where the water supply is unstable. If the plumbing works well, you can simply arrange for a pre-set of water. The only negative feature of such a device - oversized washing machines with a water tank.

A very attractive model of the automatic washing machine is Gorenje WP60S2 / IRV. You can load 6 kg of laundry inside. It will be squeezed out at a speed of up to 1000 rpm. Energy consumption category A - 20%. The special WaveActive drum ensures gentle handling of all materials.

The effect of the wave perforation of the drum is enhanced by the well-thought-out shape of the ribs. When calculating them, a special three-dimensional model was used. The result is a washing technique of impeccable quality that does not leave wrinkles. There is a special "automatic" program that flexibly adjusts to the characteristics of a particular tissue, to its saturation with water. This mode is very helpful if it is impossible to choose the appropriate solution on your own.

The simplicity and convenience of the control panel have also consistently received approval from users. Provided allergy protection program. It is also suitable for those who suffer from high sensitivity of the skin. Sophisticated ribs located on the side walls and on the bottom effectively dampen vibrations. At the same time, noise reduction is achieved.

This effect is realized even at very high spin speeds. All consumers will appreciate the automatic cleaning program. It will get rid of bacterial colonies and thereby prevent the appearance of a bad smell in clean linen. The linen door is made as strong and stable as possible. It is opened 180 degrees, which greatly simplifies life.

Other peculiarities are as follows:

• the ability to postpone the start for 24 hours;
• 16 basic programs;
• quick wash mode;
• mode for washing sportswear;
• sound volume during washing and spinning 57 and 74 dB, respectively;
• net weight 70 kg.

Another attractive model from Gorenje - W1P60S3. It is also loaded with 6 kg of linen, and the spin speed is 1000 revolutions per minute. Energy category - 30% better than required to meet category A. There is a fast (20 minutes) wash, as well as a program for processing down clothes. The weight of the washing machine is 60.5 kg, and its dimensions are 60x85x43 cm.

Gorenje WP7Y2 / RV - freestanding washing machine. You can put up to 7 kg of laundry there. The maximum spin speed is 800 rpm. However, in most cases this is sufficient for high-quality processing of linen. For any of the 16 programs, you can set individual user settings.

There are normal, economy and fast modes. As with other cutting-edge Gorenje models, there is the SterilTub self-cleaning option. The bookmark door has a flat shape, therefore it is convenient and does not take up too much space. The dimensions of the device are 60x85x54.5 cm. The net weight is 68 kg.

When choosing a Gorenje washing machine with a tank, you must first of all take into account the capacity of this tank. For rural areas, the tank can be quite large, because there are often interruptions in water supply. The largest tanks should be used where water has to be constantly supplied, or in places where it is extracted from wells, from wells. But in most cities, you can get by with a small-capacity tank. He will only insure against accidents on utilities.

Having dealt with this, you need to think about the size of the washing machine. They should be such that the device will sit quietly in its place. Having chosen the point where the washing unit will stand, you will have to measure it with a tape measure.

It should also be remembered that the opening door in some cases can become a strong hindrance when moving around the house.

The next step is to choose between an embedded and standalone model. Most often they try to build in a washing machine in kitchens and small bathrooms. But in our country, such models are not in great demand.

It is advisable to give preference to inverter motors, which are less noisy than traditional drives.

It makes no sense to chase a high spin speed. Yes, it speeds up work and saves time. But at the same time:

• the linen itself suffers more;
• the resource of the drum, motor and other moving parts is rapidly consumed;
• there is quite a lot of noise, despite the best efforts of the engineers.

Experts strongly recommend connecting washing machines directly to the water supply. Hose extension is already very bad, and the use of informal, not specifically designed for a particular model of hoses is not recommended. It is advisable to use additional filters for water purification.

But it is undesirable to lay too much powder.

This provokes increased foam formation. It will penetrate into all the cracks and voids inside the machine, disabling important components. And also very many malfunctions can be prevented by removing the transport bolts and carefully leveling the machine before use.

It is equally important to sort and check the laundry. Do not wash only large items or only small items separately. The exception is the only big thing, with which nothing else can be pledged. In any other situation, you will have to carefully balance the layout. Another nuance - you should close all zippers and pockets, buttons and Velcro. It is especially important to button up jackets, blankets and pillows.

Should be sure to remove all foreign objects from linen and clothing, especially those that can scratch and prick. It is undesirable to leave even a small amount of lint or litter in pockets, in duvet covers and pillowcases. All ribbons, ropes that cannot be removed must be tied or fastened as tightly as possible. The next important point is the need to inspect the pump impeller, pipelines and hoses, clean them as they become clogged.

It is highly undesirable to use bleach containing chlorine. If you have to use them, then the dosage should be less than the norm. When the drum load is less than the maximum allowable for a specific program, it is important to proportionally reduce the amount of powder and conditioner. Choosing between different modes, it is worth giving preference to the fact that heats the water less and spins the drum less. This should not affect the quality of washing, but the life of the machine will last longer.

When the laundry is washed, you need to:

• remove it from the drum as soon as possible;
• check if there are any forgotten things or individual fibers left;
• wipe the drum and cuff dry from the inside;
• leave lid open for efficient drying.

Long drying with the door open is not needed, 1.5-2 hours at room temperature is enough. Leaving the door unlocked for a long time means loosening the device lock. The machine body can only be washed with soapy water or clean warm water. If water gets inside, immediately disconnect the device from the power supply and contact the service department for diagnostics. There are a number of important subtleties during operation:

• use only grounded sockets and wires with excess electrical power;
• avoid placing heavy objects on top;
• do not empty laundry in the washing machine;
• avoid unnecessarily canceling the program or resetting the settings;
• connect the machine only through reliable circuit breakers and stabilizers, and only by separate wiring from the meter;
• periodically rinse the container for detergents;
• wash it and the car only after disconnecting from the network;
• strictly observe the minimum and maximum figures for the load of laundry;
• dilute conditioner before use.
