Washing and Drying Clothes
- Don't overwash clothes.
- Use the right water level for the size of each load.
- Wash lightly soiled clothes with cold water.
- Place your dryer in a heated area of your home.
- Don't overdry clothes - use the automatic drying cycle if your machine has one.
- Have your dryer vented to the outside to prevent moisture build-up in the laundry area.
- Remove clothes from the dryer immediately to prevent wrinkling.
- Dry all clothes in succession to use retained heat.
- Clean your dryer's lint filter after each load.
- Wash and dry full loads rather than partial loads when possible, but don't overload your washer or dryer.
