A:Answer Thank you for reaching out about your new Insignia™ 4.1 Cu. Ft. High Efficiency Top Load Washer (Model: NS-TWM41WH8A).
Pouring hot water directly into the washing machine is not recommended. This model is designed to automatically fill with water at the temperature you select, and manually adding hot water could potentially damage the machine or affect its performance.
Here are a few suggestions:
1. Many modern detergents are formulated to work well in cold water, which can be effective for most laundry needs.
2. Consider using a portable water heater to heat water for your washing machine if your main water heater is out of service.
3. If possible, repairing or replacing your water heater might be the best long-term solution.
If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to reach out. Enjoy your new washing machine!
