During winter months, when the water entering your home is colder, or for locations with very cold water year round,
use the PerfecTemp plus COLDto help dissolve powdered detergents and to improve the cleaning of your clothes.
The TAPCOLDfeature turns the PerfecTemp feature on your washer off and uses your household tap water
temperature for a COLDwash. This can provide energy savings by reducing the amount of hot water used in your
wash.
