You can reduce this cost by washing full loads, which results in using less water overall.
- Use cooler water -- switching the temperature setting from hot to warm cuts a load's energy in half.
- Reduce drying costs by cleaning the lint filter after every load to improve air circulation.
- Don't overdry clothes.
- Use the cool-down cycle to allow clothes to finish drying with residual heat.
