A Guide to Using Laundry Pods with High-Efficiency Washers — Explained by Foshan Jingliang Daily Chemical Co., Ltd.

  In modern family life, doing laundry has become a household chore that cannot be avoided. Whether you are an office worker, a student, or a homemaker, the laundry room is a place where we often spend a great deal of time. Faced with an endless stream of dirty clothes, consumers naturally care about how to complete laundry tasks more efficiently and conveniently. Among the many laundry products available, laundry pods have gradually entered households thanks to their simplicity, precision, and effectiveness.

  As a company dedicated to the research and development of household cleaning and laundry products, Foshan Jingliang Daily Chemical Co., Ltd. has always been committed to providing consumers with scientific laundry solutions. Below, we will explain in detail how to properly use laundry pods depending on your washing machine type and laundry load size.

1. First Confirm Your Washing Machine Type

  The number of pods you should use depends largely on the type of washing machine you own.

  If you are using a newer high-efficiency (HE) washer, it consumes less water and energy compared to traditional models, helping you save on utility costs. However, because HE washers use less water, too much foam may negatively affect cleaning results. Therefore, Foshan Jingliang Daily Chemical recommends:

  Small to medium laundry loads: Use one pod.

  Large laundry loads: Use two pods.

  If your washer is an older model or you are unsure, check the machine’s label or consult the user manual. When developing laundry pods, Foshan Jingliang Daily Chemical has carefully considered compatibility across different machine types, ensuring the pods dissolve effectively and perform well in all washing environments.

2. How Many Pods Should You Use Per Load?

• Small to medium loads: One pod is sufficient — economical and effective.
• Large loads: Even with high-efficiency machines, two pods can be used.
• Extra-large loads: Some brands recommend three pods, but in most cases, two are enough to clean thoroughly.

  At Foshan Jingliang Daily Chemical Co., Ltd., the formula and concentration of each laundry pod are strictly controlled to ensure that every pod delivers accurate, scientific dosing while preventing waste from overuse.

3. How to Properly Use Laundry Pods

  Unlike liquid or powdered detergent, laundry pods must be placed directly into the washer drum, not into the detergent drawer. This prevents clogging and ensures proper water flow.

Steps:

Place the pod at the bottom of the drum.

Add your clothes on top.

Select the appropriate wash cycle.

  Foshan Jingliang Daily Chemical reminds consumers: using pods correctly not only ensures they dissolve fully but also helps extend the lifespan of your washing machine.

4. Common Issues and Solutions

  While laundry pods are easy to use, occasional problems may arise. Below are common issues and solutions summarized by Foshan Jingliang Daily Chemical:

Excess suds
If you previously used too much detergent, you may experience oversudsing. Run an empty cycle with a small amount of vinegar to “reset” your washer.

Pod not dissolving completely
In colder seasons, very cold water can affect dissolving. Use a warm wash setting to ensure proper performance.

Residue on clothes
Causes may include:

Overloading the washer, preventing pods from dissolving properly.

Excessive detergent use.

Low water temperature.
Solution: Reduce the load size and run another cycle without detergent to rinse away any residue

5. Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How do I choose the right laundry pod?
Pods are available in different scents and with various functions, such as enhanced stain removal, odor elimination, or color protection. Always check your washer’s manual before purchasing. Foshan Jingliang Daily Chemical offers multiple product lines to meet diverse family needs.

Q2: How much detergent does a single pod contain?
Typically, each pod contains about 2–3 tablespoons of detergent. At Foshan Jingliang Daily Chemical, dosing is carefully controlled to balance cleaning power with environmental responsibility.

Q3: What happens to the outer film of a laundry pod?
The pod’s water-soluble film dissolves quickly in water and is washed away with wastewater, making it environmentally friendly.

Q4: Which is better: laundry sheets or laundry pods?
Laundry sheets, being plastic-free, appeal to some eco-conscious consumers. Pods, on the other hand, are often favored for their strong cleaning power and ease of use. Foshan Jingliang Daily Chemical develops both products, offering options to suit different preferences.
