Washing Clothes

What water temp setting do you normally use for whites? colors?
I always put the temp on my washer to warm/cold but I noticed my clothes were shrinking a little. I touched the water and it was more like hot/warm instead of warm/cold.

I'm just going to wash all my clothes (t-shirts, jeans etc.) using the cold setting even though I am supposed to wash them in warm water.
 
My wife had me buy one of those expense front-loading auto-temp washers.

It adjusts it's temp to always be the same.

Cost me waaaay too much $$$ to buy though. 🙁
 
Hot/Cold means wash/rinse cycles. It washes with hot, and rinses with cold.

Warm/cold means just that.. both hot/cold(warm), and then cold to rinse.

I always use Warm/Cold nomatter what I'm washin. Warm water cleans better.

That clears everything up. Thanks

 
Pure whites like socks and undershirts, get hot or possibly warm.
Light colored clothing made of cotton, like white/gray T-shirts and towels get warm water or possibly cold.
Dark clothing, polyester, jeans, button shirts, etc get the cold treatment only.

edit: Seems I didn't even answer your question.😕 Thanks for filling in Eli.
