Choosing between powder and liquid used to be the main decision with laundry detergents.You may have noticed a new symbol on detergent bottles and boxes – HE. It actually stands for High Efficiency.
These detergents are formulated to be used in HE washing machines. They are low-sudsing and quick dispersing for use in low water volume machines. HE detergents hold soil in suspension so it is not re-deposited onto clean clothes.
Front-loading machines, which require less water and detergent. And instead of using a big water-filled tub with an agitator like traditional machines, with an HE washer, the clothes go in a "tumbler" and gently tumble around in a shallow pool of water. HE washers also tend to spin faster, which means your clothes have less water in them when they go into the dryer, resulting in shorter dryer times. You can use HE detergent in a traditional washer with no problems.
Because an HE washing machine tumbles instead of agitates, it creates more suds than a traditional machine. Therefore, HE detergent must be low-sudsing.
Some HE washing machine manufacturers will actually void your machine's warranty if you use non-HE detergent. You can't use traditional detergent in an HE washing machine, but you can use HE detergent in a traditional washing machine. Read your washers care and use guide!.
