    Who is the real manufacturer behind the Wascomat Crossover/Encore washers.

    To me it's not as good as with a transmission but the customers love them. They are quiet. Have two upcharge buttons so allot of my customers are paying $5.50 for the longer wash sand extra rinse. So far so good.

    Dexter T-400 Washer Install Torture

    What you are describing will not work. I have owned laundromats with hardmount machines in them for the last 36 years. The machine must be mounted to a concrete floor and pad. The pad must be poured so that it has rebar in it attaching it to the floor or it will walk. If you anchor it to studs...

    Huebsch?!

    The spray rinse is what is set by the factory. The owner of the machine can program it for a deep rinse, however the end user is stuck with whatever the owner has it set for. I have had them in my laundromats but mine I programmed for a deep rinse.

    Encore Pro Commerical Washer

    I've seen those Encore Washers labeled Haier for residential sales, but only the front load version. Wascomat markets them but there is no claim to making them.

    If you look in the Automatic Euphoria section under Speed Queen you will see these were made as early as 1974 by McGraw Edison. Raytheon continued to make them until sometime in early 1990's. I had many of these washers in my laundromats over the years. They were very simple machines to keep...
