The washing machine is one of the most used appliances in a home and it directly affects energy consumption. Next, we give you some recommendations to save on the bill with the correct use of your washing machine:

1. It is recommended to use machines that have the energy labels A +, A++ or A +++. It is true that the purchase of these appliances is more expensive, but it is an investment that ends up being profitable.
   
   
2. We must fill the drum of the machine as much as possible. Leaving a little space so that the garments can be washed well, but taking advantage of each cycle to avoid putting in more washing machines.
