A Yes. In addition to the electricity required to operate its pump, j there is usually a booster hot water ; heating element. An average dish washer uses 14 gallons of hot water per load; next to heating and cooling your home, heating your water is the second largest energy consumer. To economize, be sure that your dishwasher is full, but not overloaded, before you turn it on. Scrape your dishes before loading, j When rinsing is necessary, use cold water. After the final dishwashing rinse, ; and before the drying cycle begins, a small amount of electricity may be saved if you turn off the dishwasher and I open the door, allowing your dishes j to air dry.

A A conventional refrigerator freezer requires less electricity than j a frost-free model. A 15 cu. ft. two-door i conventional refrigeratorfreezer requires i approximately 1200 kwh per year, as compared to 1800 kwh per year for a similar frost-free model. However, a conventional refrigeratorfreezer must be defrosted frequently to operate most economically. Many refrigerators have heating elements in their walls to prevent condensation on the outside. These heaters need to be on only when the air is extremely humid, so you can save energy if the refrigerator you buy has a switch to turn off the heaters.
