So, related to my washer/dryer purchase question…
Long story short, we are looking to install two washing machines and two dryers. Our existing “laundry centers” (stacked washer/dryer but in a single unit) had a single plug (240v) to power both components. Our laundry room has two 240v 30a outlets, two hot & cold water spigots, two drains, etc but come to find out for some reason we only have one 120v outlet (on a dedicated 20a circuit). Our replacement equipment will have separate 120v plugs for the washers and 240v plugs for the dryers.
So the question is, can you plug two washing machines into one 20a outlet? Or will that draw too much power?
I’m guessing I will need to have a second outlet and circuit installed.
Thanks in advance!
