System 2000:
Top-Load Horizontal Washing System
Save Money and Resources by
Doing Laundry
The Staber System 2000 is a top loading
tumble action washer that offers consumers savings of up to $340
or more each year compared to traditional agitator washers simply
by using fewer resources.*
For the average family doing 8 loads per week,
this means savings of over 11,000 gallons of water, 800 kWh of electricity,
and 10 gallons of liquid detergent each year compared to a traditional
agitator washer. This means less work load sent to an individual
septic system or community sewage treatment plant. Only 1 ounce
of detergent is needed due to the use of only 15 gallons of water
per load (compared to about 45 gallons and at least 4 ounces of
detergent per load for a traditional agitator washer).
Saving all of these resources really helps our
environment. By using up to 66% less water, 75% less detergent,
and 50% less energy, consumers save on detergent costs and resources
used throughout the year for the life of the washer. There is much
less hot water to heat, less washer operating energy, and less drying
time due to the faster spin speeds.
INNOVATIVE DESIGN ALLOWS BETTER CLEANING ABILITY AND LARGER CAPACITY
People are also able to wash more laundry in one load because of
the unique top loading tumble action design and clean the laundry
better due to the patented polygon-shaped tub design. Instead of
a round tub, the Staber System 2000 uses an eight-sided outer
tub with a six-sided inner tub that tumbles the laundry down repeatedly
into a bottom pool of water.
This creates a unique pumping action that forces
the water through the clothesbasket and gently tumbles the clothes
to clean better. No agitator means you can wash large items, like
blankets and rugs, which you would never fit in an agitator washer.
The Staber System 2000 spins at a higher RPM than most agitator
washers; this extracts more water which leads to less drying time.
EXPERIENCE AND RECOGNITION
The Staber System 2000 is designed and manufactured with
innovation, quality, and durability in mind. Over 20 years of detailed
laundry equipment re-manufacturing experience has guided the development
and production of this new approach to the old concept of cleaning
our clothes. Most importantly, the Staber System 2000 offers
immediate environmental and financial advantages when compared to
the traditional agitator washers currently on the market.
Staber System 2000 has been featured in publications such
as The Wall Street Journal, Popular Science ‘Best of What’s
New’, Consumers Digest ‘1998 Best Buy Issue’, Country
Living, and Home Power magazine. It is a family owned business in
operation since 1976; originally a re-manufacturer of coin operated
laundry equipment. In anticipation of upcoming Department of Energy
guidelines on the efficiency of washing machines, it designed a
top loading version of tumble action washers that is more efficient
and exceeds these standards.
A WASHING MACHINE THAT CAN PAY FOR ITSELF?
Many people are not aware of how much resources a washing machine
uses, such as how many gallons of water are used in each wash cycle,
or how many gallons of detergent are used each year. These costs
are "hidden" in our utility and market bills. Simply because
of the efficiency and design of the Staber System 2000, your
savings in operating costs pay the initial price back in a short
amount of time and continuously save literally thousands of dollars
through the life of the machine.
This is the same as purchasing an investment with a guaranteed high
rate of return. There will always be utility and detergent costs;
therefore if you know you are using less resources compared to your
current washer, you will pay hundreds of dollars less every year
to use a Staber System 2000.
BENEFITS FOR THE SOLAR MARKET
This innovative washing machine made by Staber Industries also gives
alternative energy users an attractive option for handling their
laundry needs. The Staber System 2000 runs very efficiently
for consumers using solar power, operating on only 110–130
watt-hours of electricity per wash load. Unlike other washing machine
manufacturers, the warranty is not voided when used on a solar power
source.
DURABILITY AND MAINTENANCE SAVINGS
Since the Staber System 2000 has such a simple design and
no transmission to break down, it is built to last 20-25 years.
Also, maintenance is so much easier because of this simple design
and total front access to the belt and motor. Service is handled
directly through the company, and most repairs are resolved with
advice over the phone from the factory. This saves expensive maintenance
calls and an expensive return trip for parts replacement. Parts
are shipped to the consumer within two business days.
EFFICIENCY AND EASE OF USE
When you begin using the Staber System 2000, you begin saving
money as well as the environment. The Staber System 2000’s
reversible, variable-speed motor eliminates the need for a non-efficient
transmission, meaning less energy used. Reduced water and detergent
consumption already surpasses expected future Department of Energy
mandates, helping reduce the harmful effects of chemical release
into our water supply. In addition, all of the components can be
recycled in the future.
The Staber System 2000 is very easy to use. Load up to 18+
pounds of dirty clothes into the large, top loading tub. Latch the
tub’s doors, add detergent to the automatic dispensing system
and close the lid. Then, program temperature, water level, and cycle
settings on the user-friendly panel.
During the wash cycle, clothes are tumbled with
reversing action, creating a passive pumping force, which is more
effective in cleaning than the agitation of traditional washers.
You will also notice less residual detergent found in your clothes
due to the two full deep tumble rinses. This helps people with allergies
related to excessive amounts of detergent residue left in clothing.
Naturally, you have saved money, your clothes look and feel better,
and you have taken a step to improve our environment.
ENERGY STAR PROGRAM
As an ENERGY STAR Partner, Staber Industries has determined that
its Staber System 2000 meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines for
energy efficiency. The ENERGY STAR label has been created by the
U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) to help consumers quickly and easily identify home
appliances and other products that save energy. ENERGY STAR is the
symbol for energy efficiency.
