Conserve With Your Washing Machine

· Conserve electricity by always trying to use a full and balanced load to wash. Running the washer with only full and a well balanced load will save energy, save water and help you reduce your utility bills.

· Since more than 90% of the energy your washer uses goes towards actually heating the water, you can conserve electricity and save money by using hot water only for heavily soiled laundry or if it is otherwise specified.

· Where hot water is necessary for your washing, you can rinse clothes in cold. Since the temperature of the water used during the rinse cycle does not make the clothes any cleaner, you can save money on your electricity bills by using cold water rinses for each load.

· Don't use too much detergent as oversudsing will make your machine work harder and use more energy.

· Pre soak or use a soak cycle when washing heavily soiled garments. You will avoid two washings and save money and will conserve energy.
