Splendide WFL2500X
328 kWh a year DOE CCD (opens in a new tab) (the U.S. Department of Energy’s Compliance Certification Database) · 2026-10-25with an electric water heater and an electric dryer
IMEF 2.07 filed efficiency; the yearly figure is computed from it
A front-loading washer of standard size (1.6 cubic feet or more). Drum: 2.3 cubic feet.
The Splendide WFL2500X uses 328 kWh a year with an electric water heater and an electric dryer, by this site's calculation. For a second opinion on water, the figure is 2,850 gallons a year at DOE's test use. Its IMEF, the cubic feet of laundry washed per kilowatt-hour, dryer included, is 2.07, below the class median of 2.76.
Energy and water per year
328 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.
2,850 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.

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 front-loading washers. That is a class assumption, not this model’s rating or a warranty — no registry publishes either.

The 328 kWh figure is computed by this site from registry values, not copied from the registry itself. It combines the registry's IMEF of 2.07 with the model's capacity, the drum's volume in cubic feet, of 2.3. Because IMEF folds the dryer in, the yearly total covers the dryer's share as well as the washer's own. Only ENERGY STAR publishes a machine-only figure, which leaves the dryer out, and it lists no matching rating for the Splendide WFL2500X. So the washer's own yearly energy is not available, and no installed price range is shown either. The cost database behind that range needs the machine-only figure, which is missing for this model. The registry values come from DOE's certification database (CCD), retrieved on 2026-10-25. The test-use assumptions behind both figures are set out in how the yearly energy and water figures are calculated.
Read the rest
The 2,850 gallons figure starts from the model's IWF, the gallons of water used per cycle for each cubic foot of drum. This model's IWF is 4.2, and the site applies it to the 2.3 cubic feet of its drum at DOE's test use. A lower IWF would mean less water per cycle for a drum of the same size. No water cost is shown, because no free national source publishes local water and sewer rates. The yearly gallons, like the kilowatt-hours, assume DOE's test use rather than a household's own count of cycles. A household that runs more or fewer loads than that will use a different amount of water.
The class used here is the 360 models registered as front-loading washers of standard size. Among them, the Splendide WFL2500X has the 306th highest IMEF of all 360 models. Because the class median is 2.76, at least half the class washes more laundry per kilowatt-hour than this model. It is still rated above the federal minimum IMEF that applies to its class. In this class, 37 models are rated exactly at that federal minimum. The running cost is not stated in this text, because it depends on your own utility's electricity tariff. The page computes it from your ZIP code and does not estimate a figure in the text. Other front-loading models can be found through all clothes washer pages.
