A high-efficiency clothes washer uses 15 to 25 gallons of water per load, compared to 40 to 45 gallons used by older, non-efficient washers. A high-efficiency washing machine reduces energy use by up to 70% and water use by up to 50%. This means lower water and energy bills.  Rebates are now being offered to Miami-Dade County single family homeowners when they purchase and install a High-Efficiency clothes washer.
