Washing Machine
- Choose energy efficient washing machines. Washing machines with "Grade 1" energy label are the most energy efficient.
- Choose a washing machine that meets your household's needs. If your normal laundry loads are small, choose a smaller model that uses less water and use a public laundromat for large items like comforters.
- Fully load the machine – washing a half load of clothes consumes about the same amount of energy as a full load.
- Separate clothes according to fabric, colours and dirtiness; and wash the clothes using appropriate washing programmes to save energy and water.
- Washing in cold water is not only more energy efficient, it's also better for your clothes. Use hot water only when necessary.
