If your clothes and household
items don’t look clean and fresh
after washing, you will probably
rewash them... and that means
you’ll waste energy. Remember
to sort your clothes carefully,
and load them properly, select
correct cycles, use enough
detergent and choose a 
temperature warm enough to
release and get rid of soil.
● 
Use Hot Wash—up to 
 a regular basis
only when washing heavily
soiled articles-such as work
and play clothes.
 
● 
Under normal soil conditions,
wash in water above 
 This generally means
using the Warm Wash
Temperature setting on
your washer—temperatures
approximately 
 
 or hand
comfortable. If you notice
that soil has accumulated after
several consecutive washings,
use Hot Wash occasionally, if
safe for fabrics.
● 
Try to wash less often. Save
articles of the same type of
fabric until you have a full load.
● 
If you must wash smaller loads,
adjust the amount of water.
Small loads should have lower
water levels.
● 
Wash in off-peak utility hours.
Your local utility can tell you
which are the off-peak hours.
