Abstract

A water reuse control method of a multiple-drum washing machine, having a first washing drum and a second washing drum. When the first drum reaches a drainage process, comparing a time for the second drum to reach a water supply process T12 to a time for the first drum to reach a next drainage process T11; if T12<T11, the first drum waits until water is supplied into the second drum; if T12≥T11, water in the first drum is directly drained. Alternatively, when the first drum reaches the water supply process, comparing time for the second drum to reach the drainage process T22 to time for the first drum to reach a next water supply process T21; if T22≥T21, clean water is directly supplied into the first drum; if T22<T21, the first drum waits until the second drum drains water.
