ASKO washing machine features — Innovative features designed and inspired by real life
At AKSO, we understand that innovations don’t appear in a vacuum. So, when we develop our washing machines, our experts work together and talk with users to gain ideas, insight and inspiration – which they then use to create new ASKO features that will make your clothes cleaner and your day easier. Here you can explore some of the features that make ASKO washing machines truly unique.
Quattro Construction™
Quattro Construction™ is our exclusive washing machine suspension system that virtually eliminates noise and vibrations. Reinforced feet and a reinforced steel bottom plate ensure consistently solid contact with the floor while the reinforced top cover reduces noise and vibration. The drum, door and damper system combine to ensure unbeatable stability.
The experts’ choice
At ASKO, we are committed to designing washing machines that are asthma- and allergy-free. This commitment has resulted in all ASKO washing machines being awarded the prestigious Sensitive Choice award by the National Asthma Council Australia. Sensitive Choice Products have been reviewed and approved by an independent panel of experts that can include everything from an allergist to a respiratory physician. With our Steel Seal™ concept, ASKO washing machines are the only domestic washing machines without rubber bellows. This combined with our allergy programs and extra rinse function means 95% less microbiological load, less viruses, bacteria, mould, mites and no detergent residue.
We are very proud to have passed the test.
Steel Seal™
ASKO washing machines are the only domestic washing machines in the world without a conventional rubber bellow. The rubber bellows in washing machines trap dirt and grime and become a breeding ground for bacteria. Steel Seal™ ensures an extremely hygienic wash cycle and a clean, germ-free drum that will stand the test of time.
Auto Dosing system
Instead of making it to a struggle let the washing machine measure exactly the right dosage of deterget. Our washing machines with Auto Dose system measure the detergent against wash load, dirtiness level, water hardness, program type and temperature. Always perfect dosage and no more overdosing.
Aqua Safe™ system
No one wants water damage at home. Even the smallest leak that goes undetected can cause major problems. This is why we have worked hard to create leak protection systems that even exceed the requirements set by national authorities. Our advanced Aqua Safe™ system has sensors that can detect higher than usual water levels in the machine.
Super Rinse™
Dirt is not good for your clothes and detergents are not good for your skin. As a preventive measure for people with very sensitive skin ASKO’s washing machines feature an extra rinse function called Super Rinse. This is especially important in countries with soft water and means that the machine rinses up to seven times.
Active Drum™
The hourglass-shaped and removable lifters guide the load to the gentler central area of the drum and effectively remove large debris, such as dirt and gravel, to the larger holes at the edge of the drum. Active Drum™ is perfectly balanced to ensure the best possible washing and rinsing performance while still ensuring minimal wear on fabrics.
Line Concept™
The Line Concept™ starts with the detergent drawer to the left and ends with the Start/Stop/Pause button to the right. Start with filling the detergent drawer then simply enter your desired settings from left to right! Line Concept™ is available on all Pro Home™ washing machines and tumble dryers.
Anti crease
The anti-crease function is activated after the completion of the washing program and prevents the laundry from creasing.
Pro Wash™ System
Like many of the other features and technologies of ASKO washing machines, the ASKO Pro Wash™ System is derived from the commercial segment. Instead of just relying on the water at the bottom of the drum, the Pro Wash™ system actively circulates the water from the bottom of the drum to the top where two nozzles spray the water over the load. The load is soaked faster, which enables superb washing and rinsing performance even with very short washing cycles. Thanks to the Pro Wash™ system, you can also be sure that big loads will be washed and rinsed thoroughly. We even increased the capacity of our washers to 12 kg for the XL 80-litre drum and 9 kg for the standard 60-litre drum.
Removable lifters
The lifters in the wash drum can be removed to save you service costs. In other machines a service engineer would need to be called out but with our solution the user can sort the problem out themselves.
ECO Connection
Connect your washer to hot water and save up to 70% electrical energy! Saves time and electrical energy in the wash cycle since the heater don´t need the time to heat the water. Applies especially to households with environmentally friendly and economic source of hot water like district heating, solar panels and heat pump.
Washing programmes for all kinds of laundry
Today, we use significantly more different clothes, different types of fabrics and often fabrics of mixed materials than we did just a decade ago. As a consequence, it is also more difficult to choose the right programme. We have made it easy for you to make the right choice by creating a large number of programmes for different types of clothes and fabrics. Some of them are featured here.
