Dishwasher Rebates
ENERGY
STAR labeled dishwashers save by using both improved technology
for the primary wash cycle, and by using less hot water to
clean. Construction includes more effective washing action,
energy efficient motors and other advanced technology such
as sensors that determine the length of the wash cycle and
the temperature of the water necessary to clean the dishes.
Significant
savings can be realized by minimizing the amount of hot water
needed. The water temperature in a dishwasher should be at
least 140 degrees Fahrenheit to clean your dishes. The ENERGY
STAR qualified models with internal water heaters boost the
water temperature inside the dishwasher. This allows you
to turn down the thermostat on your household water heater
to 120 degrees, reducing your water heating costs by 20%.
Using your dishwasher's heater to dry dishes consumes a
significant amount of energy. Federal law requires that all
new dishwashers have a no-heat drying option. This is often
called the "energy saver" feature. This takes a
little longer, but dries the dishes as well as the energy-guzzling
heat drying operation.
