The Hidden Washing Machine Button That Can Save You Up to 65% on Electricity
Good news: you can.
Many people overlook a simple feature built into most modern washing machines — one that could seriously cut your energy use without sacrificing clean clothes.
🧺 The Secret Is… the “Eco” or “Energy Saver” Button
That’s right — the “Eco,” “Eco Wash,” or “Energy Saver” setting (depending on your model) is often hiding in plain sight. It might be a button, a mode, or a setting buried in your washing program options.
💡 What It Does:
- Washes your clothes at lower temperatures (typically 20–30°C instead of 40–60°C)
- Extends the cycle slightly to give detergents more time to work
- Uses less water and less electricity overall
📉 How It Saves Electricity
Heating water accounts for up to 90% of the energy a washing machine uses during a cycle. By washing at a lower temperature, the Eco mode cuts that number down drastically.
🧾 Real-World Impact:
- A typical household could save 40–65% in energy use per wash
