5 Laundry Mistakes That Destroy Machines (and How to Avoid Them) | SND Appliances

Want to make your washer and dryer last years—not months? In this video, Wes Newell covers the five laundry mistakes that we see most often with our service department. These laundry mistakes quietly ruin machines and drive up repair bills. If you're in Northern Minnesota, we'd love to see you! Stop by our stores or visit our website: https://www.sndappliances.com/ You’ll learn why overloading kills motors and bearings, how “just a splash” of detergent actually shortens the life of high-efficiency washers, the simple monthly maintenance routine (Affresh tablets, lint-screen cleaning, door-seal wipe-downs) that keeps odors and breakdowns away, what an unlevel washer can do to your floors and spin cycle, and why an annual dryer-vent cleaning is the cheapest fire insurance you can buy. SND Appliances has helped thousands of Northern Minnesota families choose, install, and service appliances for decades. Because we’re local, every dollar you spend stays in the community—yet we match big-box prices and back every purchase with real in-house technicians.
