Detergents are designed to be effective across a range of temperatures. They work well in cold water, usually around 20°C or lower, which saves energy and preserves colors. Warm water, around 30°C to 40°C, enhances their cleaning power for greasy stains, while hot water, ranging from 50°C to 60°C, is reserved for heavy-duty cleaning and tough stains. It's essential to follow the instructions on the detergent's packaging
