On The House Hour: Underperforming Appliances May Only Need A Simple Adjustment

So, your washing machine or dishwasher doesn’t work as well as it did years ago. Don’t run out to buy a new one so quickly. You just may not be allowing the machine to run as designed, using the wrong amount of detergent, or have hard water. All three could be the issue, too. Life goes on even when your washing machine or dishwasher is out for service.
