Abstract: A method for operating a laundry washing machine comprising a washing tub external to a washing drum, a recirculation system comprising a recirculation circuit configured to drain liquid from the bottom of the washing tub and to re-admit such liquid into the washing tub, a liquid level sensor device configured to detect the liquid level inside the washing tub, and a variable speed recirculation pump connected to the recirculation circuit. The method comprises a recirculation phase comprising controlling the recirculation pump by varying the rotation speed of the recirculation pump depending on a difference between the detected liquid level and a prefixed liquid level value.

Abstract: A laundry washing machine having a washing tub external to a washing drum configured to receive the laundry to be washed, a recirculation system having a first duct to circulate liquid into a first region of the washing tub and a second duct to circulate liquid into a second region of the washing tub. The recirculation system comprises a recirculation pump operable in a first direction of rotation and in a second direction of rotation opposite to the first direction. The recirculation pump is operated in the first direction to circulate liquid in the first duct and is operated in the second direction to circulate liquid in the second duct.
