The arrival of monsoon marks the beginning of laundry woes that last till the end of winter season. Humid conditions in monsoons, and dryness and cold weather in winters create breeding grounds for bacteria, fungi, and allergens that lead to a number of skin problems, respiratory disorders, infections, and rashes, and make your laundry experience truly unpleasant.
To help you get relief from these seasonal woes, Onida brings you its wide range of automatic washing machines that offer advanced features for a fresh, odour-free, and relaxing laundry experience, not just during monsoons and winters, but practically all year round.
Here are the most advanced features of Onida washing machine latest models, along with the essential laundry tips for monsoon and winters.
Onida washing machine models equipped with effective anti‑bacterial wash programs are designed to decimate harmful germs and allergens from clothes using warm water rinsing. This feature also eliminates detergent residue from the fabrics, ensuring hygienic and fresh laundry for you during the rainy and winter seasons. It is advisable to wash clothes soon after use in monsoons, rather than letting the laundry sit in the basket/ bag for long, as damp or sweaty clothes are a quick breeding ground for germs.
Clothes are more prone to germ build-up during monsoons and winters due to dampness and limited drying time. Use of hot water helps break down dirt and stains, and kill bacteria and allergens effectively. Onida washing machine models like the ‘Trendy75’ and the ‘8 kg Fully Automatic washing machine (FHV-800HT)’ have in-built heating mechanisms that enable hot water washes (at temperatures 60°C or above) to combat mildew, mold, musty smells, and stain-causing microbes.
Onida Fully Automatic washing machine models like the ‘7.5 kg Dual‑Action Pulsator (T80CGN)’ create powerful water currents to dislodge dirt, stains, and bacteria from fabrics. They use the cyclone / waterfall technology, employing a High‑Intensity Pulsator to wash heavily soiled clothes.
‘7 kg Front-Load (FWF-700HT)’ Onida washing machine uses ‘fuzzy logic control’ to sense the load of clothes, and adjust the wash cycle, based on load weight and dirt levels. This feature ensures efficient cleaning without causing damage to sensitive fabrics. In combination with antimicrobial technology, this precision facilitates a gentle yet germ-safe wash. It is smart to wash moderate loads during rains and winters, so that water and detergent spread evenly between all the clothes, enhancing the process of germ and bacteria removal from the fabrics.
The ‘Active Soak’ function available in some Onida washing machine models helps the detergent and water to remove germs and bacteria effectively from the fabric by dislodging stubborn stains and dirt.
Some advanced models like the Onida F75TSG 7.5 Kg Front Load Fully Automatic Washing Machine have a durable stainless steel drum. It is totally capable of resisting rust, withstanding tougher spin cycles, and hindering bacterial buildup. It also comes with other advanced features such as ‘Wash Plus, eco cycles, LED display’.
Models such as ‘7 kg Add‑Wash Top-Load (FHD-700HTAD)’ include the ‘Air Dry or Turbo Drying’ feature that effectively removes excess moisture, reducing drying time by upto 40%. It minimises dampness after wash, preventing microbial growth and musty odours, giving clothes a fresh look even during rainy or cold seasons.
In order to prevent bacterial or fungal growth inside the drum, Onida ‘T65FCD — Top Load 6.5 kg’ Fully Automatic washing machine offers ‘Drum Clean function / Self-Clean Mode’ that uses hot water jets to sanitize the interior tub. It eliminates microbial particles and keeps the drum mold-free. It is advisable to run the Clean Tub/Drum Clean cycles every 4–6 weeks for enhanced cleaning.
Woolen fabrics used excessively during winters leave more lint in the tub than usual, causing the next load in the washing machine to gather those particles. The ‘magic lint filter’ available in most Onida washing machine models captures lint, dirt, monsoon soils, and other micro-particles effectively, preventing the residue from accumulating in the next lot. With the use of above advanced technologies, Onida automatic washing machines provide their users with efficient solutions to tackle the laundry woes that arise in monsoon and winters, when the climate is humid or cold, and damp conditions are common.
Onida washing machines are an ideal choice for Indian households, since most of the Indian regions witness humid climatic conditions throughout the year. Onida is a trusted name in the home appliances market. The smart features in advanced Onida
