How to use this tool

  1. Enter the measured quantities and your own planning assumptions.
  2. Review all calculated outputs and the stated limitations.

Try this example

{
  "load": 30,
  "washer": 8,
  "wash_time": 60,
  "dryer": 6,
  "dry_time": 90
}

Accuracy and scope

Reports machine occupancy, not a complete overlapping schedule. Fabric care and actual dry load limits must be checked separately.
