I have a Hotpoint top load washing machine and I’m trying to figure out how to clean the filter. I’ve read the manual and it doesn’t seem to provide any clear instructions. I’m wondering if anyone here has experience with this model and can provide some advice. How do I access the filter and what is the best way to clean it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I remember the first time I had to clean my Hotpoint top load washing machine filter. I was so intimidated by the task, but I knew it was necessary to keep the machine running smoothly. After reading the instructions, I gathered the supplies I needed: a soft bristled brush, a bucket, and some dish soap. I unplugged the machine and removed the filter from the back. I used the brush to scrub away any dirt and debris that had built up. Then, I filled the bucket with warm water and a few drops of dish soap and submerged the filter in the soapy water. I let it soak for a few minutes before scrubbing it again with the brush. Finally, I rinsed the filter off with clean water and dried it with a towel before putting it back in the machine. I was relieved to have finished the job and proud of myself for tackling something I had been scared of.
