Installing a Splendide

[Pete Masterson]

Why not, indeed? I've seen some coaches (Prevost, mostly) with a
'compact' stacked washer and dryer. These seemed to be "apartment-
sized" models.

The downside is that they would take much more room (and probably use
more water -- but thats not a problem when you have shore connections).

A 220V dryer would require a minimum of 50A service. If you get a
gas dryer, you can make it work on propane with the appropriate
burner adjustments.
