energy right: energy saving ideas

washing machine Is Lint A Renewable Resource
and Can I Stop My Subcription?

Now before you turn off your computer monitor
( You DO turn off your computer monitor, don't you?) and go do a load of clothes or something, we have a few more tips to run by you. Your clothes dryer and dishwasher are two more areas where you can save.

43. Besides cleaning your lint filter after every load, make sure you dry full loads of clothes without overloading. If the preceding sentence confuses you, don't be ashamed. Just read it again.

44. Stop the dryer as soon as clothes are dry, or use the moisture sensor control to automatically shut off the dryer. Overdrying wastes energy and sets in wrinkles. And who needs that.

45. Dry loads one right after another. You'll use less energy because the dryer is already heated.

46. Select a cycle with no final drying time or stop the dishwasher after the final rinse. There's no wrinkle problem here, but you could save electricity.

47. It's always a good idea to hang on to appliance manuals so you can refer to them for care information and possible energy saving tips. Of course, you can give yourself four brownie points if you actually remember where you put them.
