How to wash thermal underwear: 7 recommendations for machine and hand washing

Underwear with thermoprotective properties in recent years is gaining enormous popularity. And with the growth of their demand, the question of how to wash thermal underwear in a washing machine and by hand is brewing. I propose to find answers together.

In order for the laundry not to lose its properties, it must be properly washed.

Rules for washing thermal underwear

Due to the fact that thermal underwear is able to pass moisture well, it becomes dirty quickly enough. And even after playing sports even faster. A stale thing is not able to cope with the functions assigned to it, so it should be washed regularly.

Note that thermal underwear has a special fabric structure, in which the smell does not linger. So you can not understand the unpleasant aroma that it is time to organize “bath procedures”.

Contaminated thermal underwear will not exude smell, but after each workout it must be washed

I would recommend washing things for sports after each workout, and things for everyday wear about 2–3 times a week.

Machine Wash: 4 rules

In order not to spoil a useful and expensive thing, you need to know how to properly wash thermal underwear in a washing machine. There are several important recommendations to follow:

Picture	Instruction
	Washing mode Washing of thermal underwear should be carried out only in the mode of delicate washing. Otherwise, the product will lose not only the original form, but all its properties. Delicate mode keeps things intact.
	Water temperature The temperature should not exceed 40 degrees. Too hot water adversely affects the properties of the fabric (for example, microfiber) - they stretch and deform them.
	Cleaning agent Choose not an ordinary powder, but a special remedy. They not only prevent the material from stretching, but are also more easily washed out. The price may be different - it all depends on the company and volume.
	Spinning If you want to erase things with thermoprotective properties correctly, then you need to forget about the spin mode.

Is it possible to wash a thermo bag in a washing machine? My answer - you can, most importantly, adhere to the same principles as for washing clothes. In addition, do not forget to take the bottom out of the bag so that it does not get damaged.

Before washing the thermo bag, be sure to remove the bottom

Hand wash: 3 recommendations

Wash these products with their own hands a little harder than in a washing machine. Here the main thing is to take into account 3 nuances:

• Water should not be hot. As with washing in a typewriter, its temperature should be more than 35–40 ° C.
• Do not use powders.. Hand wash products are cheaper with a mild soap solution.
• Do not rub the product. It is enough to dip them in a soap solution for 30 minutes, then rinse in clean water.

No need to rub the product - just soak it in soapy water

Do not squeeze out underwear! It is best to put it in a bath or empty basin, and allow excess water to drain.

Drying thermal underwear is best in a well-ventilated area, away from heating devices.

Types of fabrics and cleaning products for them

To effectively clean expensive clothes, it is better to use special tools, as in the photo

To make it easier for you to choose a special tool, I suggest that you familiarize yourself with the short tablet, in which contains information which substances are best used for a particular type material:

Type of material	Cleaning features
Natural cotton	Dry cleaning and chlorine-containing stain removers are absolutely not suitable for such products. They are best washed by hand, removing contamination with soap.
Wool fabric	During the cleaning process, whitening substances should be removed, replacing them with a special gel or baby soap.
Polypropylene	For its treatment, use a laundry detergent with antistatic thermal underwear.
Polyester	Polyester products are the least sophisticated in care. They can be treated with soap or powder. The main thing to avoid chlorine-containing substances.
