Washing Machines in Georgia: How to Choose, Budget Selection, Installation, and Energy Consumption | Unlim.ge

Washing machines in Georgia: how to choose, calculate the budget, deliver, and install

Purchasing household appliances is one of the first steps when furnishing your own home or renting an apartment in Georgia. A washing machine falls into the category of essential equipment, so you should approach its selection wisely to avoid overpaying for unnecessary features and utility bills.

In this guide, we will detail which specifications to consider when buying a washing machine in Tbilisi, Batumi, or other cities in Georgia, how to reduce electricity and water consumption, and how to properly organize delivery and installation.

What to pay attention to when choosing a washing machine

1. Energy consumption and water usage

Utility rates make energy efficiency a key factor when choosing appliances:

• Energy consumption class: Choose models rated A+++ or A++. They consume 30–40% less electricity compared to classes B or C.

• Inverter motor: Models with an inverter drive are not only more reliable and quieter, but also save significantly on electricity due to precise speed control.

2. Noise level and vibration

If the machine will be placed in the kitchen or a combined bathroom in a small apartment, the noise level is critical:

• Comfortable rating: Up to 52–55 dB during washing and no more than 72–75 dB during spinning.

• Direct Drive: The absence of a belt reduces vibrations and prevents the appliance from "jumping" across the tiles during high-speed spins of 1000+ RPM.

3. Dimensions and drum capacity

• For studios and narrow bathrooms: Slim models 40–45 cm deep with a 5–6 kg capacity.

• For families of 3–4 people: Full-size washing machines 50–60 cm deep with a 7–9 kg capacity.

Delivery and proper installation: a step-by-step checklist

Even the most expensive appliances can break down or become extremely noisy if installation mistakes are made.

1. Transportation and carrying indoors

When purchasing, clarify the conditions for floor delivery. In older buildings or Georgian new constructions without a freight elevator, this detail should be arranged in advance.

2. Removing transport bolts

Main rule: Before turning it on for the first time, be sure to unscrew the transport bolts on the back panel! If you don't, the drum will damage the internal components during the very first spin cycle.

3. Leveling with a spirit level

Adjust the machine's feet so that it stands perfectly level. This will minimize vibrations and noise, and extend the lifespan of the bearings.

4. Connecting to utilities

• Water supply: Use a high-quality hose and check for rubber gaskets. In areas with hard water, it is recommended to install an additional mesh filter.

• Drain: The drain hose height should be between 50 and 80 cm from the floor (looped) to prevent water from draining out of the drum by gravity.
