Do Sensitive Laundry Sheets dissolve in cold water?Updated 2 hours ago

TL;DR: Yes, Sensitive Laundry Sheets dissolve in cold water. The speed they dissolve at depends on the wash cycle, water level and how full the drum is.


Will they dissolve in cold washes?

Sensitive Laundry Sheets are formulated to dissolve in both cold and warm water. In a normal wash cycle with regular tumble or agitation, the sheet will break down and disperse cleaning agents through the load.

What affects dissolving speed

  • Water temperature: Warmer water speeds dissolving, but cold washes still work well; expect a slightly slower dissolve time.
  • Cycle type and agitation: Standard tumble or agitation cycles help the sheet circulate and dissolve. Very gentle or low-agitation cycles take longer.
  • Water level and low-water settings: Extremely low-water or ultra-concentrated HE cycles can slow dissolving because there is less water to circulate Sensitive Laundry Sheets.
  • Drum load: Overloading the drum can block movement and reduce contact between water and Sensitive Laundry Sheets, slowing dissolution.

How to make sure the sheet dissolves well

  • Always place Sensitive Laundry Sheet in the empty drum before adding clothes so it can move freely.
  • Avoid overloading; leave room for tumbling so Sensitive Laundry Sheets can circulate.
  • If you use very cold, very short or ultra-low-water cycles, consider using a slightly longer cycle or a second sheet for larger loads.
