Elizabeth, intelligent arrangement of laundry room to tackle as much as efficiently as possible. Unfortunately, it's Energy Star guidelines that restrict the availability warm rinses. I have a suggestion you might try, although it's just more "button pushing".
If you want a final warm or hot rinse for diapers my suggestion is to start a new cycle on heavy duty with hot or warm water fill. Let it agitate for a few minutes. Then hit pause or cancel then turn selector to drain & spin and press start. I also think Heavy Duty cycle has 2 rinses as opposed to 1 rinse for Mixed Load cycle. Although the washer's controls are knobs, the machine is still fully controlled with electronics. | ||

There is a gas line to the left of your new washer down by the baseboard coming out of the wall. We were just trying to be helpful because natural gas dryers are incredibly efficient and economical. I understand the relocating frequently thing because natural gas connections aren’t near as common as electric these days.

Gas connection, photo #2 from the OP. Or is it not gas?

 That longer dryer vent is probably unavoidable, but slows down the dryer a little. Do you have clotheslines outside? The last time I went through military-family housing neighborhoods here, all the t-posts had been removed during (much needed) renovations.
Good tip on the 575/576 Maytag models, the longer warranty would be worth the effort to find an independent dealer. | ||
