Now, we all know washing machines use water but have you ever stopped to think about just how much it uses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The water a machine uses, depends on both the model and cycle, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whirlpool.com\/blog\/washers-and-dryers\/he-washing-machine-water-usage.html#:~:text=ENERGY%20STAR%20states%20that%2C%20on,of%20water%20per%20load1.\">a single load can use anywhere from 15 to 45 gallons<\/a>. It\u2019s a lot of water, especially when you\u2019re running multiple loads a week. And with water shortages becoming more of a concern in many places, it just makes sense to be a little more mindful of how we use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Laundry is actually responsible for around 16 to 22 percent of household water use in the U.S., which is a lot. I never really thought about it before but once I did, I realized I could make a few small changes to cut back on water wastage. It\u2019s nothing too complicated, just simple habits that can help without making laundry any harder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, I\u2019ll share some easy ways to save water while still getting your clothes clean. We\u2019ll talk about things like washing full loads, using the right settings, and even choosing the best machine. Let\u2019s not wait any more and get right into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/hookedhome.com\/criterion-washer-reviews\/\">Criterion Washer Reviews<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_83 ez-toc-wrap-center counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-white ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/hookedhome.com\/how-i-save-water-during-washing-machine-usage\/#Strategies_To_Save_Water_During_Washing_Machine_Usage\" >Strategies To Save Water During Washing Machine Usage<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/hookedhome.com\/how-i-save-water-during-washing-machine-usage\/#Wash_full_loads\" >Wash full loads<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/hookedhome.com\/how-i-save-water-during-washing-machine-usage\/#Use_cold_water\" >Use cold water<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/hookedhome.com\/how-i-save-water-during-washing-machine-usage\/#Use_the_%E2%80%9Ceco%E2%80%9D_setting\" >Use the &#8220;eco&#8221; setting<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/hookedhome.com\/how-i-save-water-during-washing-machine-usage\/#Choose_the_Right_Detergent\" >Choose the Right Detergent<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/hookedhome.com\/how-i-save-water-during-washing-machine-usage\/#Regular_Maintenance_for_Efficiency\" >Regular Maintenance for Efficiency<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/hookedhome.com\/how-i-save-water-during-washing-machine-usage\/#Choose_an_efficient_machine\" >Choose an efficient machine<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/hookedhome.com\/how-i-save-water-during-washing-machine-usage\/#Pre-Treat_Stains_to_reduce_the_need_for_heavy-duty_wash_cycle\" >Pre-Treat Stains to reduce the need for heavy-duty wash cycle<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-9\" href=\"https:\/\/hookedhome.com\/how-i-save-water-during-washing-machine-usage\/#Conclusion\" >Conclusion<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Strategies_To_Save_Water_During_Washing_Machine_Usage\"><\/span>Strategies To Save Water During Washing Machine Usage<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are plenty of ways to cut back on water while doing laundry, and most of them take almost no effort. We\u2019ll talk about simple habits like washing full loads, using the right settings, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thisoldhouse.com\/laundry\/21016424\/how-to-maintain-a-washer-and-dryer\">keeping your machine in top shape<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019ll also share a few tricks that go beyond just pressing a button, like reusing water and picking a washer that won\u2019t drain your wallet or harm the planet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wash_full_loads\"><\/span>Wash full loads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Washing a full load is one of the easiest ways to save water. Your machine uses nearly the same amount whether it\u2019s half full or packed, so might as well make it count.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But wait there\u2019s something to consider and that\u2019s overloading, it\u2019s a problem. If clothes are crammed in too tight, water and detergent will not be able to circulate properly, leaving them less clean.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aim for full but don\u2019t stuff it, so everything is able to move freely. A simple change like this can help you save thousands of gallons of water over time without changing your routine much at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_cold_water\"><\/span>Use cold water<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hot water used to be the go-to, but honestly, it\u2019s not necessary most of the time. Cold water works just as well for everyday laundry and saves a ton of energy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">About 90% of the energy a washing machine uses goes to heating water. So, to save that, I switched to cold water, and my clothes are just as clean. Plus, they last longer since heat wears fabric out faster. Unless you\u2019re washing something really gross, cold water is the way to go.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_the_%E2%80%9Ceco%E2%80%9D_setting\"><\/span>Use the &#8220;eco&#8221; setting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choosing the right cycle makes a big difference in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluebot.com\/how-much-water-does-a-washing-machine-use\/\">how much water does a washing machine use<\/a> during each load.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most washing machines today come with an \u201ceco\u201d setting, but I used to ignore it, thinking it\u2019s not that important. Once I figured it just made the cycle longer without actually doing much.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But then I found out, it can cut water use by up to 50%, and that\u2019s a lot over time. I started using this setting for regular loads, and honestly, my clothes still come out fresh.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If something\u2019s really dirty, I just make adjustments in the settings, like hotter water for towels, shorter cycle for delicates, and that\u2019s it. With these few small changes, you save water without even trying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Choose_the_Right_Detergent\"><\/span>Choose the Right Detergent<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I used to think more detergent meant cleaner clothes, but it\u2019s not like that. Too much soap actually does the opposite and high-efficiency washers don\u2019t use a lot of water. So that extra detergent just sits there, making clothes feel stiff or even smell funky.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is not good because the machine might add extra rinse cycles which then wastes more water. I then decided to switch to a concentrated, low-suds detergent, and suddenly everything felt cleaner, and that too without all that extra rinsing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your clothes ever come out feeling soapy, you might be using too much, try to use less detergent.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Regular_Maintenance_for_Efficiency\"><\/span>Regular Maintenance for Efficiency<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your washer smells weird or takes on forever to drain, that\u2019s usually a clogged filter. I got to know this when my machine started leaving clothes soaking wet. But then I checked and realized there\u2019s lint, stray socks, and who-knows-what, building up inside and slowing everything down.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A quick clean-out every month keeps water flowing right. While you&#8217;re at it, check for leaks too, whether they are tiny drips or just a small crack, seal it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And if you\u2019ve got hard water, descaling every few months helps keep things running like they should. You can also call a professional to help you out if you are unsure about something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Choose_an_efficient_machine\"><\/span>Choose an efficient machine<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re looking to save water and energy, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespruce.com\/high-efficiency-washer-versus-traditional-washer-1908401\">high-efficiency (HE) washer<\/a> is the way to go. And if it\u2019s ENERGY STAR certified, that\u2019s even better because it uses about 25% less energy and 33% less water than standard models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, the big debate, should you go for front-load or top-load? Front-loaders generally win in water savings since they don\u2019t need to fill up as much. But if you prefer a top-loader, pick one without an agitator, it\u2019ll still get the job done without wasting extra water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pre-Treat_Stains_to_reduce_the_need_for_heavy-duty_wash_cycle\"><\/span>Pre-Treat Stains to reduce the need for heavy-duty wash cycle<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stains have a way of showing up at the worst times, whether it\u2019s coffee on a white shirt, ketchup on jeans, it\u2019s like they aim for the most visible spots. The best way to remove those stains is by pre-treating them, this saves you from running a heavy-duty wash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019ve learned that rubbing in some liquid detergent or baking soda paste on stains right away makes a huge difference. Studies say stains set in as fast as 5 minutes, so acting fast matters. This means you will have to do less scrubbing, there&#8217;ll be less water wasted, and your favorite clothes can last longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plus, if you\u2019re washing a\u00a0shirt custom print, pre-treating stains can prevent excessive washing that might fade the design over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Saving water while doing laundry isn\u2019t hard. Small changes like washing full loads, using cold water, and pre-treating stains can make a real difference. That you can use less water, less energy, lower your energy bills. These small steps really help and soon you will start seeing differences too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I used to run extra rinse cycles, thinking my clothes needed it, but they really didn\u2019t. Cutting that out saved me gallons of water every week, now imagine if we all did that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This way we can save our planet, also help you save up money on those energy and water bills, and honestly, your clothes will last longer too. It\u2019s the best decision to make this habit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/hookedhome.com\/which-type-of-sink-is-used-for-dumping-mop-water\/\">Which type of sink is used for dumping mop water<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, I want to talk about something that might not seem like a big deal at first and that\u2019s water usage when doing laundry.
