Reducing the washing program’s temperature from 40 degrees to 20 degrees can save up to 62% on running costs.
“This is because washing machines need less energy to heat the water and reduce the temperature,” claims the electronics maker. This has little effect on wash quality because most detergents can disinfect and remove dirt at low temperatures.
Cleaning experts recommend that you wash your garments at a temperature of around 20 degrees. Experts explain: “When it comes to electricity bills, a regular wash cycle can cost you a lot of energy. Choosing to wash in cold water will significantly reduce this cost. Switching from a 40°C to a 20°C wash cycle can save 62%”.
