When I checked, I first tried looking at specs & info for individual machines. None I looked at specifically said what water consumption was - that I could find. I ended up looking at a general statement about modern HE washers. When I built my home, I had a 1 1/2 in. discharge pipe put in the wall next to the normal discharge for the washer. All I have to do is cut out the dry wall, put in something decent looking to accept the washer discharge, and fabricate a distribution network where it discharges outside the house. I had to have the gray water pipe concealed in the wall because the inspector(s) wouldn't have approved it at the time of construction. The "government" wants water conservation, but puts all kinds of restrictions in place to prevent it.
