- Whether it is a top-loader or front-loader

Local Notes for Bronx
New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), which supplies Bronx, reports hardness of averages about 25 mg/L as CaCO3 (roughly 1 grain per gallon; sampled range 16-90 mg/L), which the report classes as soft. Minerals affect how detergent works and can build up on washer inlet screens, which is worth mentioning when you book a washer repair.
