Abstract (en)
A drum-type washer includes a water circulation channel (47) which is extended from an opening (45) in the rear side of the washing tub (19) and communicated with the drain space (37) in the downstream of the drain outlet (31). In the washer, in order to prevent detergent from accumulating in the drain space (37), the controller (38) performs the following operations in this order: water starts to be fed with the drain valve (49) open; the drain valve (49) is closed when a predetermined water level is reached; detergent is poured into the washing tub (19); the rotating drum (17) is rotated for a predetermined time to perform washing; and the drain valve (49) is opened and closed.
