How Wi-Fi Connectivity Can Make Laundry Day Easier

July 19, 2024

Imagine if laundry day wasn’t a chore you dread. Picture yourself remotely starting a load of delicacies, receiving an alert when your towels are dry, or your load of sheets is done—all from the comfort of your couch.

This isn't a futuristic fantasy; it's the reality smart laundry appliances offer.

At Standard TV & Appliance, we want to introduce you to a future of laundry that's easier, faster, and smarter. In this blog, we'll explore the exciting benefits of smart laundry technology, present some of the top-rated models of 2024, and show you how these advancements can transform your laundry routine.

How Smart Appliances Revolutionize Your Laundry Routine

Smart laundry appliances are here to revolutionize your wash cycle and offer a level of convenience and efficiency you never thought possible. Let's explore some of the features that make these advanced machines so impressive:

• Remote Control: With Wi-Fi connectivity and a user-friendly app, you can control your washer and dryer from anywhere in your house (or even outside). You can start, stop, or monitor cycles, receive alerts when your laundry is finished, and troubleshoot minor issues—all from your smartphone or tablet.
• Smarter Cleaning with Less Effort: Say goodbye to overflowing detergent messes and under-cleaned clothes. Smart dispensing systems automatically adjust the detergent and fabric softener amount based on your load size and soil level. This ensures optimal cleaning performance while preventing waste.
• Perfect Drying, Every Time: No more over-dried, shrunken clothes! Advanced moisture sensing technology in smart dryers precisely detects moisture levels and adjusts drying time accordingly. This not only protects your clothes but also saves energy.
• The Power of Steam: Steam is a game-changer in laundry care. Smart washers and dryers with steam cleaning options can tackle stubborn stains, wrinkles, and odors. Refresh clothes quickly without a full wash cycle, perfect for busy schedules.
• Energy Efficiency, Built-In: Smart appliances prioritize sustainability. They often have energy-saving modes and are ENERGY STAR® certified, so you can help reduce your household's energy consumption and lower utility bills.
