What Southampton does
to a washer.

Its first settlers built their homes at the head of what is now Old Town Pond.

The Census Bureau's 2020–2024 estimates put the median year built for the village's housing at 1985.

About 17 percent of its housing units went up in the 2010s, while roughly 18 percent predate 1940.

Seasonal houses

A washer in a seasonal house can sit for months with water in its sump and a closed door trapping moisture in the boot. The first load back is when a musty smell, a stiff pump or a hose that has quietly cracked makes itself known.

On the water

Salt air corrodes the metal on a washer's cabinet, its hose fittings and any exposed connectors, particularly in laundry areas open to the outside. Stainless hose ends and a quick look at the fittings each season prevent the slow drip that turns into a stain on the floor.

Pool and beach towels

A backyard built for entertaining means the washer takes pool towels, cushion covers and swimsuits load after load. Sand, grass and chlorinated water all find their way to the pump filter, which needs clearing more often than in a house without a pool.
