Energy Reductions using Cold Water for Laundry

File upload: 
Abstract: 
The purpose of this project was to design an energy reduction program for residence hall laundry facilities. The project group worked to set the framework for such a program, including planning methods for collecting baseline data and monitoring program progress. The project group also proposes a behavior change campaign that involves encouraging student residents to use the cold setting on their washing machines.
Problem Statement: 
A University-sponsored program that encourages student residents to launder with cold water is a yet unexploited avenue for energy conservation.
