Washing machine efficiency tips

· 80 – 85% of energy used by a washing machine goes into heating the water. Switch the temperature setting from hot to warm and that will cut the energy used in half.

· Small loads use as much energy as large loads, therefore, whenever possible, wait until you have a large load.

· Make sure to select the correct water level for each load.

· Rinsing in cold water (as per Ontario Hydro) could save you up to $23.00 a year in energy cost.

· Check washer hoses and screens for wear and tear, and consider switching to metal hoses.

· “Suds saver” washers reuse water through successive loads, thereby conserving water and detergent.

· Front load machines use up to 40% less energy to run, they save up to 50% on water bills and uses ½ the amount of soap compared to a top loading machine.

· Front load machines also remove more water from clothes, which cuts down on the time it takes to dry clothing.
