Changes in hardware

Abstract

Hardware, i.e., washing machines and associated dispensers represent a vital part of the clothes’ laundering process. The home laundry process involves more time of the housewife than any other single household activity. Increasing numbers of wash bath additives, plus growth of fabric inventory and associated complexity of washing recipes can increase this involvement with the washing process. Improved dispensers, timers and controls offer means to reduce this involvement and provide truly automatic clothes washing.
