Does it save more water if you use a dish washer?

I am single so I do not have alot of dishes to wash. I used to was them all and put them on a drying rack, though I do have a dishwasher. Does it save water though if you just do it all in one load or if you do them by hand?Does it save more water if you use a dish washer?
it does. but paper plates save even more:)Does it save more water if you use a dish washer?
a dish washer will make your meter spin like crazy. if you don't want to run up your power bill i suggest hand washing.
hmm. really?? i think it saves by doing em all by hand. plus it also saves electricity =]

  • Whats it mean when you have water coming underneath your washer?

    I did a load of laundry and water started pouring out from under the washer ,please help,and thanksWhats it mean when you have water coming underneath your washer?
    your drain line or water supply line may have come off.Whats it mean when you have water coming underneath your washer?
    Before you make any decisions, you need to find out where the water is coming from. Pull your washer back from the wall as far as you can, remove the front, and put a large sheet of paper or cardboard underneath your washer. Then run a load and watch your washer.





    The first suspicion would be the hoses (which would be the easiest fix so hope its a hose). Check to see if there's any leaking at attachment points. If your hoses are dry, then watch for where water is dripping (this is where the large sheet of paper comes in handy for isolating exactly where.





    Other leaks could be a pump, it could be a tub seal. Based on your mechanical ability, you may just want to call a repairman, but your diagnosis will help them. Repair help and parts are available on the internet.





    We have a small tub leak on our second-hand washer. We might fix it someday, but its small enough that we have a bunch of cheap bar towels and just throw one in front of the washer to catch any water. The wet towel gets thrown in with the next wash.

    Is it ok to run a Craftsman gas powered pressure washer in the rain?

    Just bought a Craftsman pressure washer. Gas powered. Briggs %26amp; Stratton engine. I believe it's a 190cc. Using it on a huge fence and deck. Forecast is for rain for the next few days. Really want to get the job done. Rain doesn't bother me, but is it bad for the motor?Is it ok to run a Craftsman gas powered pressure washer in the rain?
    The heat produced from the device running is enough to evaporate any moisture it comes in contact with, ie, light rain storm, inadvertant spray. Is it ok to run a Craftsman gas powered pressure washer in the rain?
    The rain will not hurt it at all just don't spray water down into the Carburetor and you will be fine.
    it should be fine, if it breaks take it back to sears, they take anything back
    wont hurt it if its running,i wouldn't leave it out in the rain

    How can I wash my clothes without a washer?more info please help!!!?

    It now too late to go to the basement. i have this shirt and a sweater i need to wash. ill wash it by hand(used to that since my country in the old days) so how can i wash it?or what should i use on it thank you soo much..How can I wash my clothes without a washer?more info please help!!!?
    The bathtub is a good place. If you can not bend over good, sitting in a chair is good.


    Your regular soap will do.


    Hanging them on the curtain rod will do and some towels under the floor under what hangs over.


    Or the kitchen sink will do.


    You have to swish them real good in the rinse water to get the soap out.How can I wash my clothes without a washer?more info please help!!!?
    I hand wash certain shirts all the time because the washer may ruin them. I wash them in the bathroom sink basin. I take a sponge and quickly clean the sink itself. I close the drain and add laundry detergent and swish the item in there and let it soak an hour or so. I rinse it thoroughly and then hang it on one of those special hangers they use for hanging wet items.... you can get in bed bath %26amp; beyond. It has a thick top so it won't get hanging marks. Even better is getting a drying rack you can put across your tub, but that can be a pain in the neck.





    I keep a small bottle of laundry detergent in my upstairs bathroom that I transferred from my big bottle downstairs.





    It comes in handy for stains too. My son's will get ketchup on their shirt and I put a tiny amount of laundry detergent on the stain and rub it off right away so it doesn't set in.





    If you don't have laundry detergent upstairs yet you can use dishwashing detergent or shampoo, but I wouldn't use hand soap or it will leave a scum. RINSE even more thoroughly if using any of these.
    Take a clean bucket and baby shampoo or dish soap and lukewarm water and mix in the bucket. Use one quick squirt of either soap and if you feel you need more soap, add more. Put the clothing in the bucket and dunk the clothing up and down several times and then leave to soak for a few minutes (3 to 5) and then dunk up and down several more times. Dump out the soapy water and allow the water to run into the bucket while you begin rinsing the items out in cool, clear water. Dunk the clothing into the water until no more soap appears in the water. Squeeze, don't wring, the clothes out. Take a couple of clean bath towels, lay one item on each towel and then roll the item up in the towel to get rid of the excess water. Hang to dry or put in dryer.
    Aaa, you might try using soap and water. Then you might try rinsing it in water.
    Shampoo works quite well when hand washing.

    lowes
    I used a stove knob, and it worked.
    Look in the phone book for an appliance service that has refurbished or used appliances. I bet you can find one for just a few dollars
    Take the knob from your temperature selector and put it on


    the water level switch.
    You can also contact frigidaire directly. They might give you one for little to no cost.

    Will a power washer do the work of a sandblaster?

    Hi.





    I am a sculptor. I have some cast iron sculptures heavily encrusted with ceramic shell investment mold. I was considering buying a sandblaster unit, but I have a small studio and I don't like the idea of dust in the air. I wondered if a high powered pressure washer would have the same affect of blasting off the investment. Ideas?Will a power washer do the work of a sandblaster?
    Not normally - and not without introducing some abrasive which will probably be as bad. Another option is bead blasting, but quite honestly given all the health and safety implications plus buying kit you may never use again it would be better to send them off to a specialist shot/sand blaster.Will a power washer do the work of a sandblaster?
    not sure but i can tell you a pressure washer works great to take the dull weathered look off wood like porch decks and if you are not careful it will dig a groove in the wood from the force. i think it would do that job but even if not it is a very useful tool to have around the home
    I used a power washer recently that had the power to remove varnish of a wood. I doubt your run of the mill will be strong enough you probably will need something industrial.
    You can also use the dry ice plaster it the same as sand plaster but no mess because the dry ice dos not leave anything behind.
    they make a kit for the presure washer so you can use it as a sand blaster

    you would have a lot of water to contend with unless you did it outside

    Are Marine snipers as good as those people who can shoot a bullet through a washer?

    As in, on TV yesterday, they were showing all the gun people who were sharp shooters from the wild west, until today. And they could take a little washer, through it up and the air and shoot right through the middle of that nickle sized hole. And they also showed someone who could shoot and arrow right through another arrow like Robin Hood was potrayed as doing.





    Can Marine Force Recon Snipers or Navy SEALS Snipers do that with their rifles?Are Marine snipers as good as those people who can shoot a bullet through a washer?
    hard to say where fantasy takes over and reality fades away in the scenario you just outlined for us. one thing for sure, i would not care to be 1000 yards down range from a u.s. marine sniper, give him an obscene gesture, and not expect to get drilled between the eyes. they use, for example, remington 700s, 30-06 or 7.62 nato rounds, with high power scopes, and have been trained to dope the wind and elevation to a fare-thee-well.Are Marine snipers as good as those people who can shoot a bullet through a washer?
    I guess the only thing these two groups have is accuracy.





    But the showman has the time and a number of slow motion video takes to keep doing it until he get's it 'right'. The sniper doesn't have that luxury, - and has to make it count the first time.





    Hats off to the sniper for content, - the showman for style.
    Probably not, but the important thing is that they could kill you from a great distance, which is what their job requires. So what does it matter?
    no, u been watching to much television
