Tour of the Master Bedroom

In the master bedroom Bob notes the soothing putty wall color and green-painted nook that houses the bathroom's glass block wall. He shows us the antique style Regency ceiling fan and how it fits the home's original time period. Outside the master bedroom, Bob opens up the laundry closet housing a new Energy Star compliant Kenmore Calypso washer and dryer. Down the hall, he peeks into the guest bathroom with its tumbled travertine tiles, and Kohler Memoirs water closet and vanity.

" The master bedroom itself is painted in a very soothing kind of putty color and it gives on to a little section where you see the glass block wall from the shower and some green paint in -- so all of all the choices work together very nicely.

Energy Efficient Washer Dryer Set Installed

Bob and Ryley install a Maytag Neptune washer-dryer set. Manufacturer's representative Jay Klosterman describes the product's energy saving features. The Neptune is a horizontal-axis (also called front-loading) washer that uses half the water of a conventional washer, saving energy and money. They also use less laundry detergent, and still get clothes cleaner with less wear. Consumers should save up to $100 per year. The Neptune Washer qualifies for Energy Star and cash rebates from many utilities. The cycles of the washer and dryer are synchronized so that you can move a load from the washer to the dryer without waiting.

Elm Court's Utility Room and Washer and Dryer Hookup

Donald Brazie from D & B Plumbing demonstrates how to hook up a washer and dryer in a utility room that was formerly a bathroom on the Elm Court's second floor. Bob also reviews the high-efficiency Energy Star washer and dryer from Whirlpool. The washer uses one-third the amount of water necessary for a standard wash cycle. It also removes more water than standard washers during the spin cycle. As a result, the dryer runs for a shorter amount of time, using a reduced amount of energy compared to typical models.
