Is there any problem with the front loader washer using hot water since it draws a smaller amount of water at a time to sense how much water it needs?

No problem at all. I have front loader and my tankless supplies it very well. This model has a very low minimum flow (.25 GPM) to start the heater and the washer will fill at about 2 GPM.

We haven't noticed a problem. The heater kicks on with a really small water flow. Compared to a tank type heater, there is a slightly longer wait until the water gets really hot. After all, in both cases the water in your pipes is cold and must be flushed out with hot water. If it's a concern, run a tap near the washing machine to get the pipes hot before you start the washing machine.

I don't have a front loader, but I put mine in the softener thing in the middle. When I talked to the man from the company, that's what he told me to do. Hope this helps.

Mine does exactly the same thing, there is a floating piece in the tank that goes down and triggers a sensor to tell the machine the water is to a certain level. On mine that is when there is about three inches of water in the tank. Yes it seems like it should use that water but it wont. I just learned to keep mine full. My guess is that it is that way becase if you leave the machine on it keeps heating water in the internal tank and this way it has water to replenish the internal tank if it needs it. Either way, your machine is working normaly.

Thanks, Wesley. How long did your front loaders last? I used this'd detergent on my last front loader, but it crumped out after 6 years. It seems like an expensive he washer should last longer... I've been using he detergent on my new he washer now, but I really miss the A&H; detergent. (And I have several boxes left!).

I dont have a front loader but i do have a machine without an agitator. If you are are worndering about the sudes- the soap nuts are low sudsing and ahould be fine in a Front loader.

There is about a half-inch of overlap on the side of the washer, you can't really see it from the front. So unless the side of your washer is heavily exposed that shouldn't pose a problem.

I did a little test to find the low spot that water will flow to around my washing machine and hot water heater by pouring a little water in the area where they are located. The water will pool in that low spot and that is where I placed the sensor. I just have it sitting on the floor in these low spots. I know it works because my wife was doing some hand wash in the sink which is right next to the washer and some water spilled on the floor. She was on the phone to me asking "how do I shut this thing off???". They work. Hope this help.

I have been using it for years with my front load washer. Use 1/2 a scoopful. Also used it with my cloth diapers on the same machine - works great!

In a front loading washer, definitely yes. In a top loader, I'd use the gentle cycle. And as another person commented, avoid putting it along with anything which might puncture it.

we use ours in a high efficiency washer, it lasts us 2 months. we do a small load about 3-4 times a week. I use a teaspoon the night before I wash it in a soak (outside the washer). when we first got it we had to run a few loads a couple times. the soaking helps with not having to do that any more.

One that doesn't use enough water to clean your clothes. I have a newer whirlpool top load and absolutely hate it. I do a couple of articles at a time and select the large load try to fool the sensor by having something stick up as high as possible just to make sure everything gets wet lol. I can use a pod if I put it in first. They will stain your clothes if you add them later. I did have a front load GE -HE that did a decent job. It went when we sold the house. Really miss it just toss in the pod and away you go!

Barbara, sorry you are having this issue. The main reservoir door opens on top. I use the steam feature but find I can iron several shirts and pants without refilling. I found the reservoir to be more than adequate. 10-4/5 ounce water tank. Are you adjusting the heat temp based on your clothing type? If the temp range falls into the steam area, then you will only need to press the steam button on top occasionally.

I have not had this issue with my washer. I own a Whirpool washer and live in Washington State.

I have not used it for a washing machine, but i imagine it wont work because of the way most washing machines work by cycling between hot and cold water the unit wont work properly like this

I don't own a front loader washer machine, but I do use it in my trash cans around the house. The kitchen trash can especially! It eliminates the odor quickly. If it can work for a kitchen trash can, then it very well could be a good product for your front loader washer. I've used this product for years and I highly recommend it. Good luck!

Never saw anything in the manual concerning your issue, I would assume as long as the water is heating and the steam is working it could be just a blip in the wiring. I've had my steamer for about two years and haven't had a problem. You didn't say how old your steamer is.

That's what I have and before I got this I burned up 2 outdrive pumps because the single feed does not supply enough water. I have had no trouble since purchasing this unit.
