Energy Saving Tip of the Day (for your Washer): About 90% of the energy used for washing clothes goes to heating the water. Washing your clothes in warm water instead of hot will cut energy use by as much as 45%. Washing in cold water can save as much as 90%. Simply switching to cold instead of hot water in the wash cycle can add up to big savings each year.

Energy Saving Tip of the Day (for your Dryer): Clean the lint filter after every load. Your dryer works less efficiently when it has to push air through a full lint screen. If you use dryer softening sheets, they can cause a waxy build-up that isn’t always easily seen, but it’s there. Wash the lint filter with warm, soapy water occasionally to keep your dryer working well. A toothbrush or other soft-bristle brush also can be used to clean the filter. These cleanings can actually extend the life of your dryer! If your machine has a moisture sensor, clean it occasionally so the waxy build-up from dryer softening sheets doesn't interfere with the sensor’s ability to detect moisture. If the dryer stops when it’s supposed to, you save electricity.

The generally recommended temperature is 78° F to 80° F for summer and 68° F to 70° F for winter months. For each degree your thermostat is set below 78°F, your electricity use increases by about 3%.
