Don’t make this mistake before turning on the washing machine: it will double your bill. (Page 2 ) | July 10, 2025

Using hot water significantly boosts energy consumption, as the washing machine needs to heat it.

Tip: For most garments, washing in cold or warm water is sufficient. Check the clothing labels and adjust the temperature accordingly.
5. Ignoring drum maintenance

If the drum is dirty or has residue, the washing machine will be less efficient and will require more cycles to clean the clothes thoroughly.

Tip: Run a wash with white vinegar and baking soda once a month to keep the drum clean and odor-free.
6. Using too much detergent

More detergent doesn’t mean better cleaning. On the contrary, it can leave residue and require more rinsing.

Tip: Use the amount recommended by the manufacturer and, if possible, opt for organic or concentrated detergents.
Extra tips to save

Wash during times when electricity costs are lower (if you have a differentiated time-of-day rate).
Spin clothes well to reduce drying time.
Check the labels and group clothes by fabric type and soiling to examine the washing program.
