Is the fabric softener dispenser always full of water? The causes and possible solutions
Since their inception, electrical appliances have proved to be indispensable housekeeping aides. For this reason, it is important to maintain them properly in order to avoid them malfunctioning.
The washing machine, in particular, is one of the most useful appliances as it saves us from having to scrub laundry by hand for hours. It is therefore of fundamental importance to take care the washing machine.
So, what if we find water in the softener dispenser/tray at the end of the wash? In this case, the cause will probably not be due to a malfunction but simply caused by our carelessness. Let's find out together the causes and possible solutions to this problem:

When we encounter malfunctions in our washing machine we may be tempted to immediately call in a repair expert. However, there are cases in which a problem is not due to a breakdown or malfunctions, but is simply due to our carelessness.
One example is that of a "malfunctioning" softener dispenser/tray, which we could find full of water at the end of a wash. In this case, the cause is probably due to our incorrect use of the fabric softener - which we have probably used in excessive quantities. The solution is therefore very simple: simply reduce the amount of fabric softener you use and dilute it with a little water before starting the wash.
You can also go one step further to avoid running into this problem in the future: there are natural alternatives to using commercial products and these are good for the environment and for sensitive skin.
For example, baking soda is perfect for replacing fabric softener and will also have a sanitizing effect on your laundry. All you need to do is put a teaspoon of powder into the dispenser for each wash.
Citric acid is another perfect product to replace fabric softener: dilute 150 grams of it in 1 liter of distilled water and use 100 ml of the mixture in the dispenser.
Finally, white vinegar will keep your clothes soft and fragrant: also in this case 100 ml in the tray will perfectly replace your usual fabric softener.
Your washing machine will thank you!
