Washer – Not Enough Water / Low Water Levels

The Department of Energy (DOE) sets standards for Washer water usage. Over the years, the amount of allowable water usage has been reduced. With Washers using less water and energy, you will no longer see a wash basket full of water. Most Washers are now programmed with load sensing to adjust water levels based on the cycle and load size, so the amount of water used will vary.

Understanding Water Usage in the Washer

It is not recommended to manually add more water to the Washer. Some models have a Deep Fill option which adds additional water to the wash load, regardless of whether you used a manual or a load-sensing fill.To obtain information on the average water usage of our Washers, please review our Washer - Average Water Usage article.
