Households should consider washing clothing at lower temperatures with their washing machine in order to save money on their energy bills.
By heating the water up in your washing machine to a lower temperature you will use less electricity and become more energy efficient.
Washing machines have lots of difference washing cycles and settings, so it might be an idea to wash some clothing on a warmer wash, rather than a hot one.
