Each weekend during the four-week run of Patric Richardson’s show on Discovery+ (March 31 through April 21), we’ll offer a tip from St. Paul’s “Laundry Guy.”
WASH WARM
So many people want to use cold water when they wash their clothes. … There is this idea that cold is more gentle on laundry, but seasoned laundresses and launderers know that in order to make this work you need a super long cycle.
Instead, use warm water to wash your clothes and you can use the express cycle! Warm water actually activates your detergent or soap better and is better at removing stains.
Why the express? First, it is faster so you can do laundry quicker (and use that extra time to rewatch “The Laundry Guy”) and second, it is easier on your clothes … all that tumbling is the worst thing you can do, the abrasion breaks down the fibers and they wear out so much faster.

Finally, use less soap or detergent, you don’t need as much with the high-quality products and machines out today and less is easier to rinse out!
