Saving Calculator
The calculator is used to simulate annual cost/saving of
using your tumble dryer. We assume that
each full load cycle uses 5.36kwh of energy per cycle at a cost of 30p per kwh
(£1.61 per cycle.) The calculation does
not account for machines that use more or less energy nor does it account for
standing charges.
