How long (in days) does it take to get an accurate yearly usage? Concerned about accurately measuring that is used a few times a week like the washer.

I used it on a refrigerator for about two weeks. For a washer I might leave it on for a month to account for different usage. Then average it out for the year.

Hello, I've had mine for a little over a year and feel it's a good tool for the household electrical measurements. I started out measuring my fridge, washer & dryer, computers etc;. My main concern was the lighting in the house. At about 6 months I was getting a pretty good idea that this was a valuable tool for me. It was this tool that convinced me to change the way we do laundry with how much clothing to wash and dry at on time. Also changed to LED's for lighting. The Belkin wised me up to the coffee maker using power when not in use. At about 12 months I realized a 41% decrease in my electric bill. Accurate, I think so. Especially when your on a fixed income like me. I hope this helps you. Thank you. Dave

Every six months for two users. Well ....sensibles users. :-). If you frequently run out of hot water in long showers it will be six months for one user. :-)

There is a little variation with some but, on average, I would say about three weeks. I've used them for about a year in two separate locations in the house. Hope this helps.

45 loads in a non-high efficiency washer and 90 loads in a HE washer. I never counted the loads but I could go for 2 months in my non-high efficiency washer before I would run out. I wash my cloth diapers every other day

Hi DR....The washer has 22-44 min. cycles. You can choose the water level for very small washes as well. 2 wash/rinse each. Hope this helped...I love this unit.

In my opinion, I think it will need to be used continually. You may not have to use it every day, but it will take trial and error to see how often you will need to use it.

It is difficult to say since I have used once,washed it and have kept aside for future use. So I have no clue how many times it is safe to use. Once you find out, please let me know. I am curious to know. Thank you.

We make several batches per day and clean it maybe once a week. You will be fine with an end-of-day cleaning.

I think about a year. I've used mine several times (several times a day for a few days in a row), over a period of 9 months and it's still fine.

Sorry, I did not keep an exact count. I have a HE front load washer and average two loads per day (some days zero loads, some weekends none stop) and I remeber the bottle lasting about two months for me so it should have been around 120 loads. Hope this info helps!

I use it in mine, I stopped measuring how much a long time ago. I fill the soap dispenser half way with it, turn on the machine, then add the soap after it's been washed into the machine before the water has stopped running.

As long as you can keep it clean, basically! I'd say average a few days to a week. But if you're meticulous and keep it clean you could go longer.

Thats a good question I am not sure I use the professional cleaner a couple times a week, but have only used the Refresher every six weeks or so

I usually have mine on for 15 - 20 minutes at a time. I use it about 3 times a week. I have used the current one for at least 2 months.

a lot. I never kept count. I have a He washer, and a bottle lasted me over 3 months. I do at least one large load of laundry a day.

I would think that a paper towel every day would eventually add up, if you are looking at $. I also have filtered water, and for that reason, I just use the same filter for months and months.

that depends how long you use a day... for example, I only used at the shower, and thats takes 1 month to empty.. but if I use in my bedroom that takes 4 days to empty...
