Washing laundry in cold water saves money and protects your clothes – here’s how
Washing your laundry in cold water is a total win-win! Not only does it save you money, but it also keeps your family’s clothes looking fresh and clean.
Cold water uses less energy, is gentler on your fabrics, and reduces your environmental impact.
For parents dealing with increasing laundry loads, it’s a practical choice that helps protect your baby’s clothes as well as the planet.
Here’s how cold water washing can save you money, extend the life of your clothes, and make a positive impact on the environment.
The benefits of doing laundry with cold water
Cut energy costs with cold water laundry
Want to save on energy bills while caring for your family’s clothes? Switch to cold water! It’s not only easier on your wallet but also kinder to the delicate fabrics of your baby’s tiny clothes.
Using the cold water cycle can slash your washing machine’s energy use by up to 80%. That’s a major win for your family’s budget and the planet! You’ll cut down on energy bills and shrink your carbon footprint. So, next time you’re doing laundry, turn that dial to cold – you and the Earth will be glad you did!
Cold water is gentler on fabrics, and gentler on your baby’s skin
Cold water is not only kind to your baby’s clothes but also gentle on your baby’s delicate skin. Washing with cold water helps protect the soft fibres of your fabrics, keeping them smooth, vibrant, and less likely to shrink. This gentle care means fewer rough fibres in contact with your baby’s sensitive skin, making Cold Power an ideal choice for families.
Best practices for cold water washing
To get the best clean with cold water, proper laundry practices are key. Mary Gagliardi (aka Dr Laundry) recommends using a liquid detergent since powdered formulas may not fully dissolve in cold water. Also, pretreat stains before washing and avoid overloading the machine to ensure every piece gets the attention it deserves.
For more sustainable laundry tips, consider air-drying your clothes. It reduces energy use and helps prevent colour fading and wear.
And if you’re in the market for a new washer, opt for a high-efficiency model to make your laundry day even more eco-friendly.
