CUSTOMER CARE CENTER 800.898.1879 TECHNICAL DATA WHAT IS A COMBINATION WASHER AND DRYER PRODUCT? The ASKO combination washer and dryer product is a “unique laundry solution” for households that can not accommodate traditional laundry products. The large capacity tub provides an impressive 15 lb (Full Load) wash capacity or 7.5 lb (Half Load) drying capacity. This laundry solution provides the customer with the convenience of a 120V in-house laundry product that is designed to wash and dry smaller loads of laundry on a regular basis. Our washer and dryer combination product utilizes a condenser dryer technology (vent-less) allowing for seamless wash to dry performance without the need for special electrical requirements or an external vent. These features make this product convenient for multiple applications where traditional laundry solutions (separate washer and dryer requiring 220V electrical) will not operate. This product features a large 2.5 cubic foot drum (largest in its class) which features more capacity for wash AND dry performance. Keep in mind it uses a standard household current which limits the wattage available for the dry performance, which results in longer total cycle times (3-4 hours). The 1200 RPM spin provides the maximum moisture removal to reduce the drying times along with the Heavy Stain cycles that provides a 140 degree temperature boost for improved stain removal.
