Tips
Hyourclothesand household
itemsdon’tlookclean and fresh
after washing,you will probably
re-washthem..●nd thatmeans
you’llwasteenergy.Remember
to sortyourclothescarefully,and
load themproperly,selectcorrect
cycles,use enoughdetergentand
chooseawatertemperaturewarm
enoughto releaseand get rid of
soil.
“Use HotWash—140°F.
(60°C.)—-onaregularbasis only
when washingheavily soiled
articles-such as work and play
clothes.
●Under normalsoilconditions,
wash in water above 80°F.(27”C.).
This generallymeans using the
WarmWashtemperaturesetting on
your washer-temperatures
approximately95°F.(35°C.). If
you noticethatsoilhas
accumulatedafter several
consecutivewashings,use Hot
Washoccasionally,if safe for
fabrics.
@Always rinse in Cold Water.The
temperatureof the rinse does not
affect cleaning
sTry to wash lessoften. Save
~articlesof the same type of fabric
until you have afullload.
●If you must wash smaller loads,
adjust the amount of water. Small
loads shou]dhave lower water
levels.
●Wash in off-peak utility hours.
Yourlocal utility can tell you
which are the off-peak hours.

The followingrecommendations

These are generallygood washing
practicesand willgivebetter soil

~Use hotter washwater,for
exampleup to 150”F.for cottons.
This also improvesoily-soil
removal.
~If youwash in cooler waterto
saveenergy, use more detergentto
promotebetter washing.Also be
sure to use bleach on bleachable
fabrics. Use hot water whenever
possible.
~Adddetergentand allowwasher

minutesto dissolvedetergent
beforeadding clothes.
*Incrcasc amount ofdetergent.
