Zac and Nicole's place has a washer and a dryer made by LG Electronics/Tromm.
The Washing Machine model number is:
WM1832CW
The Washing Machine model number is:
DLG2532W
In 2004, the washing machine had the highest water efficiency and energy efficiency I could find on the Energy-Star database. There's nothing special about the dryer. It uses an energy hog "hot surface igniter" that draws 400 watts to start the fire! Not solar home friendly.
In July, 2007, I did some research on washing machines for a new member. I recommend the LG brand WM2016CW front loading washing machine. The matching dryer is the DLG2526W. You will need to a propane conversion kit, part number 4948EL4002B for the dryer.
Washing machines have obviously been improving greatly over the last few years in terms water use and energy use. See the www.EnergyStar.gov for the latest. |
