“The problem is that the American way of doing laundry is startlingly inefficient. We have favored personalized machines over industrial efficiency. Nearly every house on my block has a washing machine and a dryer, and they’re all idle 99 percent of the time. And when we do use them, we’re using a ton of water: at least 6 billion gallons a week. Per pound of laundry, large-scale industrial washers use less than half of the water required by the best high-efficiency home washing machines available. These industrial washers are commonly used for towels and sheets in the hospitality industry. If all our laundry went through these washers, the U.S. would save more than 3 billion gallons of water per week.”
