Energy Efficient Washer Dryer Set Installed

Bob and Ryley install a Maytag Neptune washer-dryer set. Manufacturer's representative Jay Klosterman describes the product's energy saving features. The Neptune is a horizontal-axis (also called front-loading) washer that uses half the water of a conventional washer, saving energy and money. They also use less laundry detergent, and still get clothes cleaner with less wear. Consumers should save up to $100 per year. The Neptune Washer qualifies for Energy Star and cash rebates from many utilities. The cycles of the washer and dryer are synchronized so that you can move a load from the washer to the dryer without waiting. More information
