Washing machines and water conservation

Less than 2% of Earth's water is useable freshwater, and its availability varies across the globe. Some areas have ample, while others struggle to access enough for human needs. Maintaining a sufficient supply of freshwater requires efficient water management, conservation, recycling, and sustainable practices.

One of the ways Australians can contribute to water conservation is by using more water efficient washing machines in our homes.

Appliances Online stocks washing machines from leading brands that have incorporated advanced technology to reduce water usage. For instance, the Bosch 8kg front load washing machine uses a unique ActiveWater™ technology that adjusts the water level by sensing the amount and type of load. This intelligent feature ensures that only the necessary amount of water is used for each wash.

Similarly, the Samsung 8.5kg AddWash™ front load washer has a BubbleWash™ feature. This technology pre-mixes air, water, and detergent to generate bubbles that penetrate clothes faster and more effectively, thereby reducing water consumption.

The Fisher & Paykel 10kg top load washer, meanwhile, features SmartDrive™, SteamCare and Optimise Wash to optimise the wash cycle, thereby conserving water and energy.

By choosing a high-efficiency washing machine from Appliances Online, you can play a part in water conservation. Not only will you be reducing your environmental footprint, but you will also be saving on your utility bills.
