IMEF 1.24 filed efficiency; the yearly figure is computed from it
A compact top-loading washer (under 1.6 cubic feet). Drum: 1 cubic feet.
Not published: A current DOE listing
DOE's Compliance Certification Database no longer lists this basic model: it was missing from the registry on Oct 11, 2026. DOE does not publish why a listing ends.
What stays: the figures it filed up to , and its rank in its class as of that date. It no longer counts in class ranks, comparisons or the selector. See what replaces it today.
If you are checking XPB28-78S, it uses 238 kWh of electricity a year at DOE's test use, with an electric water heater and an electric dryer. It uses 3,334 gallons of water a year at the same test use. Its IMEF, the cubic feet of laundry washed per kilowatt-hour, dryer included, is 1.24, below its class median of 1.25.
Energy and water per year
238 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
Not published: The washer's own share, without the dryer
DOE's database files IMEF, which folds the dryer in; only ENERGY STAR splits the machine out, and it lists this model under no matching rating.
The total above, and the IMEF it comes from, stand as filed.
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.
3,334 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.
Its IMEF, 1.24, is below the class median of 1.25 and ranks 29th of the 47 top-loading, compact washers on file, highest first.

Installed cost and service life
Not published: Installed cost range
NLR REMDB's cost model needs the washer's own yearly energy use, which only ENERGY STAR files — and it lists no matching rating for this model.
Ask retailers or installers for a written quote that names this model number. The yearly energy, water and running cost on this page do not depend on it.
Service life: DOE’s cost database assumes 11 years for top-loading washers. That is a class assumption, not this model’s rating or a warranty — no registry publishes either.

The 238 kWh figure is calculated by this site, not by the registry. It combines the model's IMEF of 1.24 with its capacity, the drum's volume in cubic feet, of 1. Both ratings come from the DOE CCD, retrieved 2026-10-09, and are applied at DOE's test use. Because IMEF folds the dryer in, the yearly figure is not the washer's own consumption. It applies only with an electric water heater and an electric dryer; no figure for other setups is available here. The machine's own share is not published for this model. ENERGY STAR is the only source that splits the machine out, and it lists no matching rating for the XPB28-78S. The calculation behind the yearly energy and water figures shows each step.
Read the rest
The 3,334 gallons figure is also this site's calculation. It starts from the model's IWF, the gallons of water used per cycle for each cubic foot of drum. For this model that rating is 11.3. The site combines it with the 1 cubic foot capacity at DOE's test use. A household that runs more or fewer loads than the test assumes will use a different amount. The page shows no water cost for this model. No free national source publishes local water and sewer rates, so any cost figure would be an estimate. An installed price range is also not published. The cost database needs the washer's own yearly energy, and ENERGY STAR lists no matching rating for this model.
The XPB28-78S is one of the 47 models registered as top-loading, compact. Among them, it ranks 29th highest by IMEF. Its IMEF of 1.24 sits below the class median of 1.25. It is rated above the federal minimum IMEF for its class, where 10 of the 47 models sit. The rank uses IMEF alone, so it does not compare water use or IWF. The running cost is not given in this text. It depends on the reader's own electricity tariff, so the page calculates it from the reader's ZIP code. Other registered models, compact and larger, are listed under all clothes washer pages.
