What is soil level on a washer?

The soil level on a washer refers to the amount of dirt and grime present on the laundry being washed. Most modern washing machines have different soil level options, allowing you to adjust the intensity of the wash cycle depending on how dirty your clothes are.

Some common soil level settings on washers include:

1. Light soil: This setting is suitable for lightly soiled clothes that don't have a lot of dirt or stains on them. It typically uses a shorter wash cycle with less agitation and lower water temperatures.

2. Normal soil: This setting is suitable for clothes with a moderate amount of dirt and stains. It uses a longer wash cycle with more agitation and higher water temperatures to thoroughly clean the laundry.

3. Heavy soil: This setting is for heavily soiled clothes with tough stains or dirt. It uses the longest wash cycle with the most agitation and highest water temperatures to ensure deep cleaning.

By adjusting the soil level setting on your washer, you can customize the wash cycle to suit the cleanliness needs of your laundry, helping to achieve optimal cleaning results.
