Hi folks

I need to use a disinfectant in a washing machine, but don't know
what to pick. Many plastic tub machines arent bleach compatible, and
I dont know if that's the case with this one or not.

GRP (Glass reinforced plastic) is weakened by bleach, and is often
used to make W/M outer drums which take a lot of stress in operation.
Don't know about your machine though.
Other materials in the machine may also be attacked by bleach - I
don't think any machines are designed to be used with it nowadays.

We've just (last week) taken delivery of a brand new Indesit WIXXE 127
washing machine that has an area of the detergent drawer specifically for
bleach.
