Fresh Laundry on Your Schedule
Leaving wet clothes in the washing machine for too long can lead to odors and mildew. Use our calculator to schedule your wash so it finishes exactly when you return home or wake up. This is ideal for managing laundry in busy households.
How to Use With Your Washer

2. Select 'Finish At' Mode: Enter the time you want the load to be done.
3. Set the Delay: Our calculator will tell you the Start Time or Delay duration to punch into your machine.
Laundry Day Tips
Don't Overload: Overloading increases cycle time and reduces cleaning efficiency.
Noise Control: If you have Time-of-Use electricity rates, schedule heavy cycles for off-peak hours to save money.
Delicates: Never leave delicate fabrics sitting wet. Time them to finish exactly when you can attend to them.
