Frequently Asked Questions
Will the fragrance free formula help if I have eczema or sensitive skin?
Yes. The formula is fragrance free and dye free with no scented residues left behind, making it suitable for households managing eczema, contact dermatitis, or general skin sensitivities. EPA Safer Choice certification adds extra reassurance for sensitive skin routines.
Does this washer cleaner leave any scent on my laundry afterward?
No. The Free and Clear formula is completely fragrance free and dye free, so it will not transfer scent, dye, or residue onto towels, bedding, or clothing during the next wash cycle.
Can I use this as part of a monthly self care home reset routine?
Absolutely. The 6 count supply is designed for monthly maintenance, so one pack per month fits naturally into a seasonal or monthly home wellness ritual without any measuring or extra effort.
Is the formula non toxic enough to use in a nursery adjacent laundry space?
Yes. EPA Safer Choice certified, fragrance free, dye free, and 92% USDA biobased, the formula is designed to be safe around sensitive household members including those in adjacent nursery spaces.
Will it help with the musty mildew smell that affects my towels and bedding?
Yes. The oxy power formula targets and lifts odor causing residue on the washer drum and seals, which is the most common source of musty towel and bedding odors. Monthly use keeps that residue from rebuilding.
Is this washer cleaner good for a sensitive skin household?
Yes. It is fragrance free, dye free, and EPA Safer Choice certified, making it one of the most skin conscious options on the market for sensitive skin households.
Will the oxy power formula irritate my allergies during use?
No. The formula is fragrance free and dye free with no added perfumes, and is designed to clean the washer without releasing irritating scents into your laundry room air.
Can I use this cleaner if I meditate or practice aromatherapy in my laundry space?
Yes. Because it is completely fragrance free, it will not interfere with essential oils, candles, or any scent based wellness practices you run in or near the laundry room.
How does this fit into a holistic clean home routine?
Monthly washer cleaning is one of the most overlooked parts of a holistic clean home routine, and this product makes it effortless with pre measured dissolvable packs and a biobased formula.
Will monthly use help my HE washer feel like new again?
Many users report that regular monthly use noticeably reduces odor and residue buildup, helping the washer perform as designed and extending its effective lifespan.
Is this better for sensitive skin than a vinegar based washer cleaner?
For most sensitive skin households, yes. It delivers a pre measured oxy based clean without the strong vinegar smell, and is certified fragrance free and EPA Safer Choice.
How does this compare to running an empty hot cycle with bleach?
It is fragrance free, dye free, and pre measured, so it avoids the harsh fumes, measuring guesswork, and chemical residue concerns that come with bleach based washer cleaning.
Is this gentler on the home than store brand powder cleaners?
Yes. With 92% USDA biobased content, EPA Safer Choice certification, and septic safety, it is formulated to be gentler on both household surfaces and wastewater systems than many conventional powders.
Will it actually remove the smell or just mask it?
It removes the source. The oxy power formula lifts odor causing residue from the drum and seals rather than covering it with fragrance, which is why fragrance sensitive households prefer it.
I am worried about residue on my baby's clothes. Is this safe?
Yes. The formula is EPA Safer Choice certified, fragrance free, and dye free, and rinses clean during the cleaning cycle so no cleaner residue is left to transfer to baby laundry.
Is it worth the price compared to DIY baking soda washes?
For most wellness focused buyers, yes. You get a pre measured, EPA certified, oxy based clean in seconds of effort, instead of measuring, mixing, and hoping DIY methods worked.
How do I use Seventh Generation Washing Machine Cleaner?
Place one single use pack directly into the washer drum. Run the washer on a normal or hot cleaning cycle with no clothing. Repeat once per month for ongoing maintenance.
How often should I clean my washing machine with this product?
Use one pack per month for routine maintenance, or more frequently if your washer develops odor, visible residue, or mildew on the seals.
Do I need to wipe out the washer after the cleaning cycle?
No. The dissolvable pack rinses away during the cycle. For best results on front loaders, you can wipe the door gasket dry after the cycle to prevent future mildew.
Is this compatible with front load washing machines?
Yes. The formula is designed for front load, top load, and HE washers, including front loaders prone to mildew and gasket buildup.
Is this compatible with high efficiency HE washers?
Yes. It is specifically formulated to be safe and effective in HE machines and will not disrupt the low water, low suds design of HE washers.
What is included in the box?
Each box contains 6 single use, fully dissolvable powder packs. The product is also available in a 1 pack trial size and a 2 pack value bundle for longer term maintenance.
Is this product safe for septic systems?
Yes. The formula is septic safe and 92% USDA Certified Biobased, making it appropriate for homes on septic, greywater, or municipal wastewater systems.
Will the formula damage my washer seals or internal parts?
No. When used as directed, the formula is designed for regular monthly maintenance and is safe for washer drums, seals, gaskets, and internal components.
What is the difference between a washing machine cleaner and a regular laundry detergent?
Laundry detergent cleans clothing. A washing machine cleaner is designed to clean the washer itself, lifting odor causing residue, mildew, and detergent buildup from the drum, seals, and internal components that detergent cannot reach.
