Although generally underestimated, solar water heating and cooling is by far the most widely deployed solar technology with an estimated capacity of 154 GW as of 2007. The International Energy Agency has said that solar energy can make considerable contributions to solving some of the most urgent problems the world now faces:
Washing Machine Capacity. The general rule of thumb is that a front-loading washer with a tub that holds at least 3.7 cubic feet or greater can safely handle washing a king-size comforter.Do not put anything else in the washer when you wash the comforter, or it stands a chance of not coming clean.efore the newer models with upward of 3.7 cubic feet area were available, you had to take a king-size comforter to the local laundromat to wash it. To wash your comforter, you need a machine capable of fitting between 11 and 14 pounds of bedding inside easily.
Heavyweights: Front-Loaders Vs Top-Loaders. Common washer capacity size ranges from about 3.9 to 5.1 cubic feet with a popular width being 27 inches, regardless of whether the machine opens on top or in the front.Using the median point of 4.5 cu ft -- or any size you're interested in knowing more about -- compare a few front-and top-loading styles; for example:onsidering this conversion, do the math: An old washer -- predating 1998 -- fills with about 40 gallons or 332 pounds of water to wash and rinse clothes, while a new standard model uses 27 gallons or 225 pounds, and the energy efficient ones just 14 gallons or 117 pounds -- or less.
