Tips to Save Energy

Dishwashers

  • It pays to read the manufacturer´s instruction on plates, glasses and cutlery when loading your dishwasher. Correctly placed items increase dishwasher efficiency and ensure the best cleaning results. You should also check that nothing is preventing the wash arms from rotating before you start the dishwasher.
  • Be patient and wait until you have enough dirty items to fill the dishwasher before operating. Partial loads waste water and electricity.
  • Make the most of all functions on your dishwasher. Small load or half load options, short wash cycles, rinse-only cycles and mid-cycle turn off are features designed for energy efficiency as well as convenience.
  • For extra energy savings, make sure you use the cold water cycle when rinsing dishes.
