Mine is 7kW a day; smallish house, LED lighting, gas heat and stove (though electric oven). I believe a good bit of that is the drier, tho.

Have you looked into heat pump-powered dryers? They cost a little more up front, but seem to be much more energy-efficient.

Due to space/kitchen layout constraints, I've got an integrated combo washer-dryer; I don't think anyone currently makes a heat pump one.
