In pounds washers to dryers:
Loc. 1 930 lbs. to 1380 lbs. = 1.48
Loc. 2 569 lbs. to 690 lbs. = 1.21
Loc. 3 1158 lbs. to 1225 lbs. =1.06
Loc. 4 540 lbs. to 780 lbs. = 1.44

What you actually need and what customers will use may be different I think. when we installed new dryers we installed more than we needed but customers love to have lots of dryers and if they want to spend more it's OK with me. Also, people hate waiting for a dryer! I would go for 1:1 ratio (a triple load would use 3 for instance)

I hate that ratio crap.

Add up all your wash capacity, then devide it by 25. The number will show you how many 30# dry pockets you need. Even more, better.
