White Goods

White goods refer to large household electrical appliances that are traditionally white in color, such as refrigerators, dishwashers, washing machines, dryers, stoves, and similar items. These appliances are essential for daily household tasks and are often built into kitchens and laundry rooms. The term "white goods" originally comes from the typical white color of these appliances, although they are now available in various colors.

Water Lock

A water lock on a washing machine is a safety feature that prevents too much water from entering the machine. It acts as a kind of valve that automatically closes when too much water is detected, for example, if there is a leak or if the water supply does not stop as intended. This helps prevent water damage by shutting off the water supply to the machine until the problem is resolved.

Pull Switch

A pull switch is a waterproof electrical connection often recognizable as a white box on the wall with a cord attached. There are also double pull switches, where the white box has two cords to connect two different appliances.

Changeover Switch

A changeover switch is used to switch between two different electrical circuits or devices. In the context of connecting a washing machine and dryer, a changeover switch can be used to choose which appliance receives power at a given moment.

For example, if you have only one outlet but want to connect two appliances (such as a washing machine and a dryer), you can install a changeover switch. This allows you to switch between connecting the washing machine or the dryer to the outlet, but never both at the same time. This helps prevent both devices from being used simultaneously, which could overload the power supply.

Perilex Plug

A Perilex plug is a special type of plug used for connecting high-power appliances such as electric cooktops and ovens. It is commonly used in situations that require a lot of electrical power, as it provides a safe and reliable connection. Perilex plugs typically have more pins than standard plugs and are designed to handle higher loads. They are often used together with Perilex sockets, which are specially designed for this type of plug.

Heat Pump Dryer

A heat pump dryer is a type of dryer that works by circulating warm air to remove moisture from clothing. Unlike conventional dryers, a heat pump dryer reuses the warm air and condenses the moisture, making energy consumption more efficient. It is a popular choice due to its lower energy costs and environmental friendliness compared to traditional dryers.

Spin Speed

The spin speed of a washing machine indicates how fast the drum can spin during the spin cycle. This is measured in revolutions per minute (rpm). A higher spin speed means the drum can spin faster, resulting in more powerful extraction of water from the laundry. This helps clothes dry faster after washing. Some washing machines have adjustable spin speeds, allowing you to choose different speeds depending on the type of fabric and desired dryness level.

Energy Label

An energy label indicates how energy-efficient a building or appliance is. It ranges from A (very energy-efficient) to G (very energy-inefficient) and is often used to help consumers choose products or homes that use less energy, which is better for both the environment and the wallet.
