fast-cleaning machines from decades-old rules, a rollback lauded by the president at a recent Nevada campaign rally.<\/p>\n<p> The Department of Energy final rule creates a separate \u201cproduct class\u201d for dishwashers with a short cycle, classifying that setting as the \u201cnormal\u201d cycle and setting no limit on energy or water use.  <\/p>\n<div class=\"paywall\">\n

we saved, by the way.

In the end, this rule will neither make dishwashers perform better nor offer quicker cycles.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dishwasher water and energy use have declined by more than 50% over the past three decades because of federal standards and manufacturer innovations. Congress set the first energy efficiency standard for dishwashers in 1987; the governing body has updated it once and the Department of Energy has updated it twice since then, most recently in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>Cleaning performance has improved in the same period.
