What is the correct use of "have to"? Is it compulsion in general, like as in "I have to wash cloths daily" OR or at one a single instance, like such as "I have to save that drowning man"? Which sentence has correctly uses of "have to"?

Please satisfy my query. Ungrammatical and unnecessary.
Please note my corrections above, and that I have changed your thread title. I have no idea what "I have to wash cloths daily" means. Cloths are simply pieces of material, usually used for cleaning or wiping surfaces. Is it possible you meant "clothes" (shirts, dresses, trousers, etc)?

The use of "have to" is correct in both sentences.
 
The phrase "have to" can mean compulsion, but it can also mean necessity.
