[A/S] laundry options for '79 international

[Chris & Ruth Koehn <timberguides@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've only been a member of this forum for a few days, but already I have
come to greatly appreciate the spirit and and advice offered. Thanks!
We recently purchased a '79 International center bath. We are planning to
full time next year, and are doing some rehabbing this winter. We have two
young boys, and are concerned about laundry. I suspect we'll be spending a
fair amount of time at places that don't offer laundry services, and dread
the thought of a day a week at the Laundromat.

I've been surfing various combo washer and dryer machines. I'm looking for
any practical advice, specifically re: recommended models, hot and cold
water supply issues, venting vs. non-venting, location, etc.
If it makes sense, I'd like to mount the unit in the closet area, and supply
it with cold water only (some heat their own water). It appears to be most
practical to vent the dryer conventionally (out the side wall), rather than
self condense, which I would think uses a bunch of cold water (and thus fill
up the gray tank quickly).
Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,
