Oh yes always go to laundry mat. Most people don't realize how much these lint they throw off during washing. My drain pump went out-I never realized it had a lint trap. Though it's hard to get to and quite a bit of water hits the floor when I found out and checked it was almost completely plugged with lint.I now have left off the bottom panel so I can get to it and clean.Commercial washers have a filter easy to clean. Also never thought about the lint in the septic system until brought up on this board.
