Wash Temperature Energy
Hot Water
Hot water will give the best results of cleaning and
sanitizing, but it is not suitable for all items, it is
best for sturdy whites and colorfast items, heavily
soiled items and diapers.
Warm Water
By using warm water, there is less chance of color
loss in items. Warm water also reduces wrinkling in
permanent press items. Use with light and
moderate soils, non-colorfast or dark colors,
permanent press, silks, woolens, nylon, and acrylic.
Cold Water
You can save energy when washing by following a few
guidelines:
7.
Heating water accounts for the greatest
energy expense when washing. Save on heating
water by using warm or cold washes as well as
cold rinses.
2. Wash full loads, but do not overload.
3. Use soak cycles for heavily soiled items to
reduce wash times.
4. Select a shorter wash time for lightly soiled
items.
Cold water is less effective in cleaning than hot or
warm water, but it does minimize wrinkling and color
fading. Use it for washing extra-sensitive clothes
and for the rinsing of all fabrics.
