Selected by BuildingGreen, publisher of GreenSpec, as one of the top 10 green products of 2007, the Evolution 800 series SHE98 dishwasher is both energy- and water-efficient. A wash management system examines each load’s soil level with an infrared beam, and a load sensor determines the weight and amount of dishes to customize each wash cycle. The Aquastop feature automatically shuts off the appliance if water is detected at the base of the unit, signaling a leak. Users can also choose a half-load option to run the dishwasher half full, reducing time, water, and energy by 30 percent. Also, the Quickwash program for smaller loads or less-soiled dishes offers a shorter, 30-minute cycle. The dishwasher can use as little as 1.8 gallons of water per cycle and operates at a 42 dB sound level. Bosch. 800.921.9622. www.boschappliances.com.
