Unless it's all white laundry, warm water is best.
No. A dishwasher will not sanitize dishes unless the option is turned on. A normal cycle will use very hot water to wash and it’s good enough. A sanitary cycle heats water to 170 degrees. You should have a good reason to use this cycle.

The wash water temperature in a dishwasher should be 140oF to 160oF to avoid baking the food on the dishes. The rinse water needs to be 82oC (180oF) for 60 seconds.

Boil it. The old fashioned "green" way of sanitizing laundry without bleach is to simply boil it.New front loading washers have a sanitizing cycle where the water is heated and sanitizes your clothes.The little brown bottle of Lysol, add one cup to your wash load. It too will sanitize your laundry. However, the odor from the Lysol will need to be washed out, and then add some fabric softener to mask any residual odor of the sanitizer.Pine sol original type, added to HOT water only wash load will sanitize your laundry. But there are issues with the smell, though not nearly as bad as the little brown jug of Lysol!
You may have a small hot water heater in your house or apartment, this will use up all the hot water in doing laundry so the tank needs to fill up and heat again.

Most laundry detergents work just as well with cold water. By using cold water you will save money and reduce environmental damage. It depends.If you are putting laundry in the washer then use hot water.If you are washing laundry that stains its colour or just washing by hand then use cold water.
yes but it may cause burn markes to it swager1
Mix it with hot water, prior to adding it to the machine.
The Minnesota Department of Health says that to sanitize items by immersing them in hot water, the water temperature should be 171F. The boiling point of water is 212F.
No, bleach will work in any temperature water but it will work best in hot water with white clothes.
no because the air freezes the water when its cold but if its sunny and hot it evaporates the water
