In the current phase of exceptionality due to drought, and if it does not rain throughout this spring, this summer we could face harsh restrictions. This would mean cuts in the water supply in some areas, limitations in the irrigation of crop fields or public spaces and, obviously, no swimming pools.
In fact, Samuel Reyes, director of the Agència Catalana de l’Aigua (ACA), told La Vanguardia that in the metropolitan region of Barcelona it remains to be seen “when these water cuts will begin, because if we lower consumption and make a responsible use, maybe you don’t have to make cuts and maybe you don’t have to lower the water pressure; Or maybe the reduction in water pressure would only affect the tallest buildings.”
Given this statement, it is clear that we must all do our bit and save as much water as we can.
Appliances such as the washing machine and the dishwasher have different programs depending on the user’s needs, and some are more efficient than others in terms of time, water and energy consumption.
If you think that short programs are more efficient, you are very wrong. These programs need more water to get the job done faster and therefore also consume more energy.
It is also important to note that now many household appliances have an ECO program that, although it is longer, consumes much less water and electricity.
The Bosch brand is one of the pioneers in the manufacture of efficient washing machines and dishwashers. Models that save up to 50% in energy and water consumption. For this reason, at El Comprador de La Vanguardia we encourage you to get one and thus contribute to a responsible consumption of water resources.
If what we are looking for is a good dishwasher, which has many different washing programs to save water, we should choose this 60cm-wide Series 4.
This model can be controlled remotely or by voice thanks to its Home Connect technology, it is a very sustainable option thanks to ActiveWater technology, which offers respectful consumption of water and energy, guaranteeing excellent cleaning results. Drying is also efficient with the automatic opening of the door after finishing the selected cycle.
Another very interesting aspect is the automatic program, which adapts the temperature range and water pressure depending on the degree of dirt detected, guaranteeing the best results for washing and caring for the dishes.
This Bosch 4 Series is one of the most solid mid-range options and, in addition to many washing programs to choose from, we can program the time we want it to turn on.
This built-in dishwasher stands out above all for its smart Home Connect functions, which offer internet connectivity to facilitate tasks and to be able to access commands remotely by App or by voice.
In addition, ActiveWater technology guarantees a respectful consumption of water and energy, ensuring excellent cleaning results. It is also a very quiet appliance.
The Bosch Series 6 washing machine with a 9kg capacity is a very efficient appliance that will save you money on your electricity and water bills.
One of the most common mistakes when we start the washing machine and that causes us to consume more water than necessary, is using too much detergent for the load of clothes that we are going to wash. For this reason, we would appreciate having a washing machine like this one that has i-DOS technology, which automatically doses the amount of detergent and water depending on the load and the dirtiness of the clothes, avoiding unnecessary rinsing.
On the other hand, by having a SpeedPerfect function, we will obtain a perfect cleaning of clothes in up to 65% less time, regardless of the cycle we choose.
One of the most complete Bosch models that we can choose is this HomeProfessional with a front load of up to 10kg.
As it belongs to the most intelligent range of the brand, this appliance automatically doses the necessary amount of detergent and water. Therefore, we will only have to fill the detergent and fabric softener compartments once, and the i-DOS sensors will take the necessary amount of detergent and water for each wash, depending on the load and the dirtiness of the clothes, avoiding unnecessary rinsing.
Plus, this washer removes up to 16 types of tough stains without pre-treatment or additional chemicals – from chocolate to grass to red wine. Thanks to the 4D Wash System, cleaning will be impeccable on all garments, even when fully loaded.
Nor should we forget that this appliance, which has an ultra-quiet, low-consumption motor and a 10-year guarantee, offers smart connectivity technology to control everything from your mobile.
If we want a model with less capacity, a lower price, but that still offers us water-saving programs, we recommend this Bosch 4 Series model with white front loading.
A washing machine that has a 7kg capacity, and has ActiveWater technology to achieve perfect results using only the water that is needed for each wash cycle.
In addition, it also has a night program to enjoy quieter washes.
