How much detergent should I use per washload?
The maximum amount of detergent that should be used per washload with a traditional top load agitator washer is two ounces (two depressions with the dispensing pump). Reduce the amount used for soft water or low water volume washing machines such as a Staber washer. Maximum usage amount with a horizontal-axis washer (such as a Staber washer or a front load washer) is typically one ounce. Use less detergent when not washing heavily soiled clothes.
