Efficient Use of Electricity (modified energy factor): 1.28
This unit's modified energy factor of 1.28 is below average for the washing machines that we track. Our washing machines range from a minimum efficiency of 0.77 to a maximum of 2.86. The average washing machine has an efficiency of 1.7.
The modified energy factor is a way to compare the relative efficiency of different washing machines that takes into
account the amount of energy that the dryer will need to use to remove the remaining water from the washed items.
The higher the Modified Energy Factor, the more efficient the washing machine.
Efficient Use of Water (water factor): 9.3
Water factor is a measure of how much water a washing machine uses to wash clothes. This metric is comparable between
washing machines: it's the number of gallons of water used for each cycle for each cubic foot of capacity. Said differently,
if a washing machine used a single gallon of water for each wash cycle for each cubic foot of space, it would have a water
factor of 1.
The lower the water factor, the more efficiently the washer uses water.
