Mašina za sudove ili ručno pranje

TL;DR

  • Dishwashers use considerably less water than hand-washing dishes.
  • Hand-washing one set of dishes uses about 4.5 liters of water, while a dishwasher uses around 1 liter for the same amount.
  • Washing 14 sets of dishes by hand uses approximately 63 liters of water, whereas a dishwasher uses about 12.96 liters on a standard program.
  • Eco programs can reduce dishwasher water consumption to about 10 liters for 14 sets.
  • Dishwashers use more energy per cycle (around 1.12 kWh) than heating water for hand-washing (around 12 cents for 9 liters).
  • Direct cost comparison is difficult because dishwashers hold significantly more dishes than a standard sink can accommodate at once.
