the OP needed to supply some additional information since there are many
differnet dw on the market and they may vary in the amount of water they use.
My post suggested to the OP to read the manual. If he had posted..'I read the
owners manual and it doesn't say how much it uses..' then I wouldn't have
posted my message Richard.

not find any information. He really didn't give much information now did
he?


No, he did not, but your answer was no help at all was it? When I was
buying a new DW last year I checked a few manuals from different bands that
I was considering. Not one of them had water use ratings. If you had said
my old machine state it uses from 5 to 7 gallons, depending on cycle, that
would have been of some use. Most brands have manuals available on line if
you care to check them out.
