Full Washing Machine
It may sound obvious, but many people ignore it. It is important to only wash your laundry when the drum is at least three-quarters full. Never fill up the machine. This tip can help you save IDR 160.000 to IDR 500 000 per year depending on what cycle or program you are using.
Temperature
The temperature at which you wash clothes can also affect the cost. We have mentioned this earlier.
