Is it still possible to buy a washing machine that will take a hot water feed, or do they all just take cold and then heat it themselves in order to achieve their energy ratings ?
Just curious - our non brand machine is going strong despite the fact I only ever do 30 minute washes at 30CC, use liquid and I've not done a "service" wash in the 15 years I've had it. We have solar water so it would be silly to use electricity to heat the water when there's a tank heated by the sub just metres away...
