Washing whites..hot or warm water?
When you wash your white clothes, do you wash in hot or warm water? is there a major difference?
Re: Washing whites..hot or warm water?
i don't think it matters. I would like to wash my clothes all with warm to kill bacteria more....but that would make darks fade....therefore i wash colors with cold. Whites.....warm.
cold or warm....no difference

I wash whites in hot (depends on what kind of whites you have - my whites are most often DH's soccer socks, sweaty T-shirts, oncies with poop and carrot stains, etc.
So - hot-hot-hot for me. And even then carrots do not necessarily go off
DH claims that when he washes his clothes in hot water, it helps his allergies.
We each do our own laundry, because I refuse to let my darks be washed like that. It does fade them quite a bit.
As far as whites go, I don't have enough to do just a white load. In fact, I barely can get a small "light" load. I wash the light colors in warm water. I suppose I could do it in cold to save energy, but I think the warmer water does loosen up more dirt. I can't say for sure though.
