ADVANTAGES OF TUMBLE WASH

q MOST EFFECTIVE CLEANING AS THE CLOTHES PASS THROUGH

SOAPY WATER AND ALSO FALL ON SOAP SOLUTION IMPROVING WETTING OF CLOTHES.

q RESEMBLES THE THUMPING AND RUBBING ACTION OF GENTLE

HAND WASH.

q USES LESS WATER COMPARED TO TUB TYPE TOP LOADERS. q LESS WATER MEANS LESS DETERGENT AND ELECTRICITY

CONSUMPTION.

q WASHING IS EFFECTIVE BY DETERGENCY, SOAKING, HEATING,

TUMBLING AND SQUEEZING.

q GIVES BETTER DRYING EFFECT BY SPINNING.
