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?
I live in austria an we also have washing machines with internal heating and you usually connect them to the cold water tap, but usually you can also just connect them to the hot water tap if you have cheap or free hot water - there are thermostat sensors inside the machine and if the water is already hot it will not heat it any more.
But what if it’s too hot, as can be the case here?
🤷♂️
Also, sometimes the machine’s inlet is not rated for hot water, only cold. As I said in my first comment, I guess it depends on the model.
