    Just had a phonecall from a nursing home asking if water soluble bags can be used in the ISE10.

    It is something to do with washing infected clothing where they are placed in a bag and the bag dissolves in the wash.

    A bit more info on this.

    The bag manufacturer states these bags are not suitable for domestic machines does this therefore rule out the ISE10?

    hi bazza,

    these bags are not recomended to be used in a machine that uses a pump to remove the water, as most commercial washing machines use a dump valve to empty the water i think any pump operated drain system might have problems.

    I agree ,the machine also normally has to reach a critical temp for a certain length of time to allow the bags to dissolve ,this is normally done using what is called a Sluice/medical programme that the ISE10 doesn’t have .
