Do your bit for the environment.Choose a Siemens dishwasher.98% of all components in a Siemens dishwasher are recyclable. A Siemens dishwasher with Zeolith® drying sets a new standard for energy effi ciency.Zeolith® science combined with our smart energy-saving hydroDry technology help make our premium dishwashers the most energy efficient you can buy, giving great A-rated wash results, and really dry dishes, yet consuming as little as 0.86 kWh* per cycle. That's as much as 20% more economical than required for a European class A energy rating. Connect the dishwasher to a 55ºC hot water supply, and the energy consumption is even lower - a mere0.6 kWh* per cycle. And with a standby energy consumption of precisely nil, no energy is wasted when they are doing nothing!*Based on Economy 50ºC standard programmeSaving water to save energy.It's a popular misconception that washing-up by hand saves water, but the figures speak for themselves. Our most efficient dishwashers use as little as 10 litres of water per wash. On average, that's an incredible 40 litres of water less, per load, than washing-up by hand. And the energy required to heat all that washing-up water? Almost five times as much as a Siemens Zeolith® dishwasher uses on an Economy 50ºC wash programme*.*The energy required to heat 63 litres of water from 15ºC to 55ºC is around 4.2 kWh while theenergy used by a SN26T293GB dishwasher is 0.86 kWh for an Economy 50ºC wash programme.saving-20%Water10 LEnergyefficiencyclassDryingperformanceclassWashperformanceclass5657 The EU energy effi ciency classAll dishwashers, regardless of manufacturer, carry an EU energy label. The label categorises the appliance according to its energy efficiency; Class A appliances being the most energy efficient, Class G the least. The label also provides information on washing and drying performance. All Siemens dishwashers are A-rated in every category.To help you spot the real energy-saving champions, the most efficient appliances in our range also carry a Siemens Silver or Gold Energy Efficiency Award logo. Dishwashers that are 10% more economical than a standard Class A machine carry the Silver award, while those that are a whole 20% more economical have been awarded Gold.
