Hi all

I have a 3 month old Hoover 7146 washer dryer. I usually only use two or three of the available programmes but recently had cause to use a few others.

During a standard wash cycle at 40 or 60 degrees the machine uses very little water for the rinse cycle. However, on the quick washes designed for smaller and light soiled loads the machine uses quite a bit more water for the rinse. It also uses more water for the "rinse only" programme.

Whilst I understand that modern machines use a lot less water than older ones, I was wondering if the variation of water usage I mentioned above should be expected. I've tried the cycles with an empty machine, as I thought that maybe it was the load displacing the water, but the same applies to an empty machine.

Regards
Neil
