HIGH EFFICIENCY (HE) WASHERS
High efficiency clothes washers save water, energy and space in your home. Most are front-end loaders that use tumbling action to get clothes clean. They can cost a bit more but you’ll enjoy significant savings on your water and energy bills that will really add up over time. Look for the Energy Star Label to ensure that you’re buying the most efficient product possible. Consider this:
• High efficiency clothes washers use 30% - 50% less water, that’s 5,000 gallons per year!
• They use 50% - 60% less energy to run.
• They require 1/3 less detergent.
• Your clothes will get less wear and tear in a high efficiency washer.
• They’ll need less time in the dryer, too.
