This week, we’ll explore closer into the advantages of only doing complete loads of laundry. Only doing full loads of washing means it limits the need to do multiple loads. However, do not overload, as it can cause the detergent to stain clothes as well as impacting the washing efficiency and eventually damaging the drum. If you cannot place your hand into the top of the machines drum, it is too full.
Washing your clothes at 30 degrees instead of 40 degrees uses up to 38% less energy so not only are you saving on utility costs but you’re also doing your part to lift the strain on our national energy supply.
