Answer 1

If you wash your hands in a bucket of hot water the grease will come of rather quick, but there’s a cost of heating the water.

Eco mode is like using a bucket of colder water to wash your hands in, the cost is less but you need to work your hands longer in the colder water before the grease comes of.
