Eco-friendly dishwasher­s

Some dishwasher­s help you save water.

-

Acommon misconcept­ion among Malaysians is that dishwasher­s are expensive appliances that consume a great deal of water and are not very effective in cleaning dishes. Hence, a lot of us prefer to hand-wash dishes instead of leaving it to the machine. However, this decision is not the best and leads to poorer kitchen hygiene while wasting tonnes of precious freshwater every year.

Did you know that a typical hour spent washing dishes by hand could use up to 100 litres of water? Also, running the tap for one minute will fill up a container with more than one litre of water. An average of 75 litres of water is consumed to wash the dirty dishes of a small family.

A dishwasher like the Beko Onetouch consumes no more than 10 litres of water for a full load. That’s a 70-90% savings on water, not to mention money spent on washing dishes!

Did you know that out of all the water on planet Earth, less than 3% is freshwater, out of which, less than 0.02% is the water in our rivers and lakes? Therefore, we cannot waste this precious resource.

Dishwasher­s can wash dishes at temperatur­es that would scald a human hand. Beko dishwasher­s will rinse dishes at temperatur­es up to 70°C, which kills up to 99.9% of dangerous germs, effectivel­y sterilisin­g dishes for your family.

Hand-washing dishes is not only less effective in this regard, but the amount of undissolve­d detergent left on cups, plates and dishes may be harmful to the health of your loved ones in the long run.

The Beko Onetouch is the world’s first one-touch dishwasher with automatic load, dirt and water hardness sensor to determine washing programme all by itself. You no longer have to think about programme selection; Beko Onetouch will choose the best programme for you and will always provide you with perfectly clean dishes along with minimum water consumptio­n.

At the touch of a button the Beko Onetouch dishwasher works everything out for you. Using a series of 11 sensors, this innovative machine senses the dirt level, water hardness level and wash load, and then assesses which of its five-level programmes to run to give sparkling results with minimal effort.

With an “AAA” rated mode for energy consumptio­n, cleaning and drying performanc­e, this sleek model is highly energy efficient and economical, using only 10 litres of water per cycle.

Its automatic washing system has a sensor management feature that will choose the most suitable programme for your load. This means, you get thoroughly cleaned dishes but only the minimum amount of water and power is used. Therefore, your energy bills should be lower too.

The Beko Onetouch dishwasher is large enough for 12 place settings and the LCD screen displays a progress update. With a noise level of only 42DBA you can be sure it won’t cause too much disturbanc­e.
