Dishwasher and energy

Dishwasher and energy

A dishwasher consumes one-third less hot water than hand washing so using the dishwasher saves you money. Additional ways to save are:

• Avoid pre-rinsing dishes in hot water. Use the rinse cycle until it’s time to clean a full load.
• Use the energy-saving cycle to shorten the run time and save gallons of water.
• Run your dishwasher with a full load and use the air dry option, if available.

When buying a new dishwasher:

• Compare features. Look for models that are ENERGY STAR® compliant and offer energy-saving features.
• Compare operating costs using the Energy Guide label.
• Consider water use. More than 80 percent of the energy used by dishwashers is for heating the water, so look for models that use less water.
