Columbus Washing Machine Buying & Disposal Tips

If you’re in the market for a new washing machine in Columbus Ohio then it might be time for you to take a crash course in the best approach to buying that new machine. When it comes to washing machines you are basically dealing two specific types. The most common is the top loading which has an agitator that rotates on a vertical axis. The other option would be a front loading with the agitator on a horizontal axis. So what’s the difference?
First of all, top loading washing machines are often more inexpensive than their front loading counterparts. However, they are also more expensive to operate because they use more water and energy. On the plus side they are generally quiet and can accommodate large loads of clothes. Because they are the most common type of washing machines sold in the United States you’ll also find the most varieties and models to pick from.
With regard to front loading washer machines they are often more energy efficient but come with a heftier price tag. They also will be able to hold the same amount of clothes but are more gentle on delicate fabrics. The front loading washer machines also have longer rinse and spin cycles. Even though these are more energy efficient they are not as common as the top loaders and therefore might be hard to find many options to pick from.
The Federal Trade Commission requires that every washing machine manufacturer place an energy guide label on each one of the new machines. This can help you make a direct comparison between the machines and let you know exactly the kind of energy will take to run them. In other words, you might find that you’re paying more upfront for front loading washers but in the long run it will pay for itself in energy savings.
Is saving energy on a new washing machine really all that important? Consider the fact that your washing machine probably wastes more energy than any other electronic items in your home. If you were to make the switch to a more energy and water efficient type of washing machines you can save anywhere between 30 to 75% on your energy bills and cut your water usage by up to 50%.
When you read that energy guide label you’ll want to look for how much kilowatt hours that machine will use in one year. The smaller the number the better it’s going to be on your electric bill. A machine that has an Energy Star rating could end up saving you significant amounts of money. That’s what you need to be looking out for!
When you make that switch you’ll also need to make arrangements to get rid of your old washing machine. This can be easily accomplished by hiring a team of professional junk haulers like Junk King Columbus to show up and haul away that appliance. Don’t expect your new washing machine installers to take away the old washers.  Simply call 1-888-888-JUNK or book a free on site estimate online.
