Can I connect my washing machine to a hot water supply?

Applies to

washing machines (integrated and freestanding)
washer dryers

Resolution

We do not recommend connecting washing machines to a hot water supply unless this is specified in the appliance technical documentation.

Most of our washing machines have been specially designed for installation using a cold water supply (maximum 25 degrees Celsius).

Not all of the washing programmes always use hot water, if hot water is used on a low-temperature wash this could damage the clothing.
