If you are in the market for purchasing a new washer, it's important to choose a model built for energy-efficiency. Front-load washers may look similar to the traditional top-load machine, but the differences are in the energy bill.
Front load washers hold larger loads, require less water and save energy with reduced water heating. They also help to save time and money as there are fewer clothes to wash and the clothes stay looking good longer.
Switching to an energy-efficient front load washer can save homeowners over $100 per year in energy costs. They require more than 68 percent less electricity used to heat the water and as much as 50 percent less water.
