How This Dishwasher Water Calculator Works
This calculator uses average water consumption values for modern dishwashers commonly used in Indian and international households.
Eco mode uses the least water (8–10 L per cycle)
Normal mode balances time and water usage
Intensive mode uses more water for heavy grease
