[RE-wrenches] Front Loader Washing Machines and Modified square wave inverters

[Michael Welch]

Hi gang. I wanted to add to this that one of FP's engineers is himself a solar bozo. 

I have not had contact with him in a few years, but way back when, he did send me the enclosed document which outlines FP washer requirements on inverters. Wonder if the models have changed, and how much. I have Bcc'd him, so maybe he will get back to me with the latest info.

>I have a client that just purchased a Fisher – Paykel, F-P claim it is “inverter friendly” and the washer has great specs, runs up to 1000 RPM in the final spin. And it runs pretty fine on a SW4024.  Purchased @ a local appliance center, so if it needs repair you are not your own repair person. Cost was $600+ and is ½ of a Staber at $1200 plus freight, which I used to sell.
