Laundry

Cut your heat and water bills and still enjoy clean, fresh laundry:

  • Reduce the amount of hot water you use by washing clothes in warm or cold water.
  • Wash only full loads of laundry and set the water level according to load size.
  • When drying clothes, hang them outside whenever possible.
  • Be sure the dryer is vented to the outdoors.
  • Set the air temperature as low as possible on a tumble dryer, if you have to use one, and keep drying times short.
  • Try not to overload or under load your dryer or your washer.
