Frequently Asked Questions
Is this washer cleaner safe to use with a baby in the home?
Yes. The formula is EPA Safer Choice certified, fragrance free, and dye free, and is designed to be safe in family homes with infants and young children.
Will any residue transfer to my children's clothing?
No. The fully dissolvable pack rinses clean during the cleaning cycle, and the fragrance free, dye free formula leaves no residue that could transfer to kids laundry in subsequent loads.
Can I use this if my child has eczema or sensitive skin?
Yes. Fragrance free and dye free, with EPA Safer Choice certification, the formula is a strong fit for households managing childhood eczema or skin sensitivities.
Is it safe to use with pets in the home?
Yes. The non toxic, EPA Safer Choice certified formula is appropriate for homes with cats, dogs, and other pets, and the powder is fully contained in each single use pack.
Will the powder packs be tempting for kids to open?
Each pack is a single use pouch. As with any cleaning product, store the box out of reach of young children and follow standard household chemical storage practices.
Is this a good washer cleaner for a family with young kids?
Yes. It is EPA Safer Choice certified, fragrance free, and dye free, with no harsh fumes, making it a strong fit for family laundry routines.
Will monthly cleaning help with the smell on my kids' soccer uniforms?
Yes. The oxy power formula targets odor causing residue on the drum and seals, which is a common hidden source of smell that transfers back into family laundry.
Is it safe to use in a laundry area next to a nursery?
Yes. The fragrance free, dye free, EPA Safer Choice certified formula is designed to be safe in homes with adjacent nursery or playroom spaces.
Can my teenager use this safely without supervision?
Yes. The pre measured single use packs make it easy and safe for older children to handle as part of a family chore routine, with no measuring or chemical mixing required.
Is it better for kids' clothes than using chlorine bleach in the washer?
For most families, yes. It avoids the fumes, handling risk, and residue concerns of bleach, while still lifting odor causing buildup that affects kids laundry.
How does this compare to store brand washer cleaners for family use?
It is EPA Safer Choice certified, fragrance free, dye free, and 92% biobased, which is a stronger safety profile than most conventional store brand washer cleaners.
Is this a more family friendly option than DIY vinegar washes?
Yes. The fragrance free, EPA certified formula avoids the strong vinegar smell that can bother young children, and the pre measured packs remove the need to handle liquids.
I am worried about chemicals near my toddler. How harsh is this really?
EPA Safer Choice certification means every ingredient has been reviewed for safer use around people, including children, so it is one of the gentler options available.
Will using this monthly help if my child has allergies?
Yes. A clean washer reduces odor causing residue and mildew, which can be a hidden trigger for family members with allergies or sensitivities.
Is it safe for the baby bottles I wash in the same machine?
Yes. Because the formula is fragrance free, dye free, and rinses clean during the cleaning cycle, it is appropriate for washers that also handle baby items like bottles, bibs, and burp cloths.
What if my child has very sensitive skin and reacts to most detergents?
The fragrance free, dye free, EPA Safer Choice certified formula is well suited to highly sensitive skin households and rinses clean so it does not add irritants back into the next laundry load.
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.
