• Water temperature
Choose the Cold Cycle to save energy and prevent clothing shrinkage
• Trips to the laundry room
Only wash full loads to conserve water and time
• Detergent usage
Use only the manufacturer-recommended dose of concentrated HE detergent to reduce the amount of dirty wastewater entering our environment
• Lint build-up
Cleaning the dryer filter before each cycle maximizes air flow; improving drying and saving energy

• Residual heat
Select a recently used dryer (warm to the touch) to take advantage of the heat left in the dryer

• Detergent containers
Doing so helps avert tons of plastic from entering landfills

You will save over 260 gallons of water this year just by doing one load of wash each week*
*Compared to top-loading washers

90% of the energy needed to wash clothes goes towards heating the water, so chose the cold cycle to reduce energy consumption

Using too much detergent doesn’t clean more effectively – in fact it leaves residue on your clothing and causes oversudsing
