Dishwashers
Dishwasher technology has improved dramatically over the last decade and new ENERGY STAR® certified models include several innovations like soil sensors, improved water filtration, more efficient jets, and dish rack designs that reduce energy and water consumption and improve performance. By reducing water consumption, ENERGY STAR certified dishwashers also help protect our lakes, streams, and oceans. A dishwasher with an auto-sensing cycle means the dishwasher has a soil-sensor and is able to detect if the water coming off the dishes is dirty or clean, which can save water and help ensure the dishes come out clean. If selecting a dishwasher without a soil-sensor, look for models that have multiple cycle options so you can choose the cycle that best fits your load. If your dishes are only slightly soiled, you can use a light cycle that uses less water. (source: energystar.gov)
