Cleaning expert shares 'ideal' temperature to wash bedding and save money

As the cost of living soars, millions of people across the country are trying to save as much money as they can on household bills. Some of the major energy-guzzling culprits in your home include appliances like your oven, washing machine and tumble dryer, but these are household necessities that we all rely on.

Thankfully, cleaning experts have been on hand to suggest ways to save money while tackling the washing, and putting your sheets in on a lower temperature could help - as long as you have the right detergent.

Many of us wash our bedsheets on a higher temperature than we would our clothes, in order to kill bacteria and keep them squeaky clean. If you're someone who washes your bedding on 60 degrees, you might be pleased to know that lower temperatures can still get the job done.
