...and silly me. I know that Maytag and others had gasolne engnes for their rural customers. I thought the gas in this case was refernce to a gas bunsen burner or other jet/burner to keep the water hot. As people transitioned from boiler tubs for their laundry to semi-automatics, I would assume they were used to super-hot water. Here in the nation's largest city most folks had gas for lighting and eventually cooking, very early-on. Before the utilty of natural gas was known/harnessed it was burned off at the source as a nuisance! Gas was manufactured/ made by the gassififcation of coal.

I have an Easy service manual that has care and use instructions for the Easy Gasoline Engine, made for all models of Easy washers. There is a strange bracket below this eBay machine that might have at one time held a gas engine. It's possible that it was converted to a standard electric motor later on...

Super Hot Water
Was needed because up until the mid-1940's or 50's soap was the primary cleanser for laundry. The hotter the water, the better soap works/dissloves. One would start with hot/boiling water for whites/lights and by the time it cooled down one could do the "darks" (what there was of them). Mind you when washing jeans and overalls caked with farm muck, one probably was better off using hot or very warm water to help get them clean. Launderess | ||
