I think that one uses a 1.5-2HP compressor, probably using R-134a. Therefore, it should be even more efficient than the older models that use solid state heat pumps.

I wish I knew about this 2 months ago when we got a new Washer.

Energy Efficiency:
The LG unit is very energy efficient. Because the Washer/Dryer Combo uses 50% less water, your hot water heater does not have to use as much energy. Also, the unit uses only 1.4 kilowatts per hour during the drying cycle, as opposed to 5 or 6 for a conventional dryer.
