insulating a washer, wether its a FLer or TLER, should be nothing to it, or always have on any machine I have done.....
simple and yet effective two ways, one for the insulation of heat retention factor, and second, the noise reduction factor..... two things I have used, thick foam as used for a bed such as eggcrate style.....or water heater jacket type......simple trimming where necessary for hoses, and most important do not cover things like pumps or motors that need air to breathe and cool down...use common sense for each application using either duct tape or aluminum tape to secure it in place, wrapped completely around the outter drum..... others have just glued insulation to the cabinet itself, but thats more for noise control than heat retention... |
