I have a laundry machine and I always try to wash things at the appropriate temperature, but when the machine is done the clothes/sheets etc. never feel warmer than room temperature. How do I find out if the heating element of the laundry machine is broken?


every single washing mashine I ever owned has internal heating - maybe that’s different in the US, don’t know about that, but here in europe that’s completly normal.
Opposite in the US. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a base consumer model with internal heating.
If you look up the hardware for installing a washing machine https://www.lowes.com/search?searchTerm=washing+machine+outlet+box they all have spigots for hot and cold water.
