What to do
While this is not caused by the washer,
you can slow the pilling process by
washing garments inside out.
Fasten snaps, hooks, buttons and zippers.
Remove loose items like pins, objects in
pockets and sharp buttons.
Turn knits (which snag easily) inside out.
Check the bleach package instructions to
use the right amount.
Never add undiluted bleach to wash or
allow clothes to come in contact with
undiluted bleach.
Rinse items that may have chemicals on
them before washing.
Avoid mixing heavy items (like working
clothes) with light items (like blouses).
Try a fabric softener.
Load the washer so clothes have enough
room to move freely and the water covers
all garments.
Match cycle selection to the type of fabric
you are washing (especially easy care
loads).
Repeated washing in water that is too hot.
