If you are checking the Amana H18vD744(3B) against the registry, here are its figures. At DOE's test use, with an electric water heater and an electric dryer, it uses 460 kWh of electricity and 4,059 gallons of water a year. Its IMEF, the cubic feet of laundry washed per kilowatt-hour, dryer included, is 2.76, equal to its class median.
Energy and water per year
460 kWh a year with an electric water heater and an electric dryer
Computed by this site from the registry's IMEF and drum capacity at DOE's test use of 295 cycles a year. IMEF counts the washer, heating its water electrically, and the electric dryer's work on what the spin leaves wet — so this is the total for that kind of home. How it is calculated
The machine and its hot water alone, dryer not included: 123 kWh a year, as ENERGY STAR files it.
Not published: A home with a gas water heater, a gas dryer or line drying
DOE's rating assumes electric water heating and an electric dryer and files no split between the machine, the water heating and the drying.
Such a home uses less electricity than the total above; how much less, no registry says for this model.
4,059 gallons of water a year
Computed from the registry's IWF and drum capacity at the same 295 cycles a year.
Not published: What the water costs
water and sewer rates are set by thousands of local utilities and no free national source publishes them.
The gallons above are the figure to multiply by your own water and sewer rate.
This model is rated above the federal minimum IMEF for its class.

The 460 kWh total was calculated by this site. The registry does not publish it. It applies the registry's IMEF of 2.76 to the capacity, the drum's volume in cubic feet, of 4.3, at DOE's test use. The total covers the washer, its electrically heated water and the electric dryer. ENERGY STAR files a separate machine-only figure of 123 kWh a year for this model. That value counts the machine and its electrically heated water alone and leaves out the dryer. The difference between 123 kWh and 460 kWh is the dryer's share under DOE's test use. That difference is not published as a figure of its own. The registry data for this model comes from DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-10-25, and the model is also sold as NFW5800H**. The steps behind both totals are set out in how the yearly energy and water figures are calculated.
Read the rest
The 4,059 gallons figure comes from the registry's IWF, the gallons of water used per cycle for each cubic foot of drum. This model's IWF is 3.2. This site applied it to the 4.3 cubic foot drum at DOE's test use, so the yearly total is the site's calculation. The registry does not supply a yearly water total. The page does not state what 4,059 gallons of water costs. No free national source publishes local water and sewer rates, and a cost without those rates would be an estimate. A household that runs more or fewer loads than DOE's test use will see a different yearly total. The same applies to the 460 kWh electricity total.
This washer is one of 360 models registered as front-loading, standard size. Its IMEF of 2.76 equals the class median of 2.76. By IMEF it ranks 101st highest of 360. It is rated above the federal minimum IMEF for its class, and 37 models in the class sit at that minimum. The minimum value itself is not available in this page's data. The yearly running cost is not given in this text. It depends on the reader's own utility electricity rate, so the page calculates it from the reader's ZIP. The installed price range appears in its own block with its source and date. It is a modeled range and not a quote. Other models in the class are listed on all clothes washer pages.
