Can you get orange stains on your clothes after washing them from a water softener?

Not usually but if the water softener's resin is leaking into the water supply - to your sink and washing machine - that could explain the orange stains because some water softener resins are orange in color. If the resin vessel is cracked the water softener is only fit for scrapping. It is not usually economic to get a water softener repaired by fitting a new resin vessel as other parts will also be worn out. If you buy a brand new one it will normally come with at least one year's warranty. In an older home sometimes rust from non-copper plumbing will stain your washing.


Does fabric softener affect drying time?

No, it's the spin cycle of your washing machine that helps with drying time. My washing machine is like magic and when I take the clothes out they feel almost dry. Therefore, I save time on drying time. Fabric softeners keep clothes soft (also leaves a film on the clothes) and softener drying sheets aren't all that good for your dryer either. The film that's on the clothes clogs up the dryer filter quicker. We all like to wear soft clothing, so clean out your filtering tray every two weeks. I take the excess lint out and then I take the mesh filter out and use an old toothbrush and clean with hot, soapy water. You should also give your washing machine a good flushing out with baking soda (1 box) and let it go through all the cycles. This helps keep all hoses and the drum of the washing machine clean and you'll get a longer lifetime out of your washer and dryer. == ==
