Tip of Buying Dishwasher

There are two dishwasher classifications: compact capacity and standard capacity. Compact models use less energy, but they hold fewer dishes. A compact model may actually result in greater energy use if you have to operate it more frequently.


Choose a dishwasher that provides several different wash cycle selections. If your dishes are only slightly soiled, you can use a "light wash" or "energy-saving" wash cycle and save energy by using less water and operating for a shorter period of time.

Look for a dishwasher that allows you to choose between heat-drying and air-drying. Heat-drying elements draw considerable electricity; circulation fans for air-drying use very little.

Keep in mind that EnergyGuide ratings for dishwashers are based on washing 322 loads annually using the normal settings. If you are considering a model with other setting options that you would use most of the time, your energy use could vary substantially.
