How to Keep Your Laundry Fresh in the Summer Heat
Summer is here — and while we all love the sunshine, the heat and humidity can create extra challenges for keeping your laundry smelling clean and fresh. At Clean Right Laundromat, we believe your clothes should feel as fresh as a summer breeze, no matter how high the temperatures rise. Here are some helpful tips to prevent musty smells and keep your laundry crisp and clean all summer long.
1. Don’t Let Wet Laundry Sit
One of the biggest culprits of musty odors is leaving damp clothes in the washer or laundry basket for too long. In the summer heat, bacteria and mildew grow fast. Always transfer your clothes to the dryer promptly, or hang them to dry right away.
2. Use the Right Detergent
Choose a high-quality detergent that’s formulated to fight odor and bacteria. Consider adding a cup of white vinegar to your rinse cycle every now and then — it’s a natural deodorizer that can help keep funky smells at bay.
3. Dry Clothes Completely
Make sure your clothes are completely dry before folding and putting them away. Even slightly damp fabric can trap moisture and cause that dreaded “wet dog” smell when it’s hot outside.
4. Store Laundry in a Cool, Dry Space
Where you store your clean laundry matters! Keep your closets and drawers dry and well-ventilated. If possible, add moisture absorbers or baking soda sachets to help prevent humidity buildup.
5. Wash Your Laundry Bags & Hampers
Don’t forget about your laundry baskets and bags — they can collect sweat, bacteria, and moisture too. Give them a regular wipe-down or toss cloth bags in the wash.
6. Try Ozone Sanitization for Extra Freshness
Did you know Clean Right Laundromat uses a state-of-the-art San-O-Wash ozone system to sanitize your laundry? Ozone naturally kills odor-causing bacteria, giving your clothes an extra level of clean that’s perfect for hot summer months.
