I am a leasing agent for a residential apartment building in Los Angeles, Ca. I have 6 years of experience in this position. As an onsite leasing agent, my job is to oversee a new residentâs entire process. I am the first contact that all potential tenants have when they are interested in renting an apartment.
This mildew smell is a common problem for people who own front-loading washers. That odor comes from mold growing inside your washing machine caused by residue and bacteria. Here are a few steps you can take that will help eliminate the cause and remove the smell.
On some front load washers, there is a 'clean out' for the Drain Pump Filter on the bottom, front of the machine. This clean out allows for easy access to the drain pump filter and allows easy cleaning of the filter that prevents debris from entering the pump.
