In the market for new commercial laundry equipment, either because your current systems need an upgrade or you just need a new supplier to shop for price and quality?
You probably already know this but restrict your scope to commercial systems only, as they are substantially different from domestic/residential systems. Here are some things to know.
What Is Commercial Laundry Equipment?
Commercial laundry equipment chiefly consists of commercial washers and dryers that can handle high load frequency and continuous use. They’re also sometimes high-speed and can handle larger loads than their domestic counterparts. The machines and systems destined for hotel laundry facilities are also built to a higher standard of quality and performance than those intended for residential use, although that will be investigated more fully below.
How Is It Better?
There are several ways in which commercial laundry equipment for hotels exhibits better quality than domestic equipment. Here are some of the main takeaways.
- Commercial equipment is built to handle more cycles. Domestic equipment might only be used once or twice per week, but hotel laundry facilities may be used nearly round the clock. Commercial laundry equipment is intended to be used near-constantly and to handle much higher load volumes. Consequently, commercial laundry equipment will last many years longer. Domestic systems generally last around 5 years, but commercial equipment can last 20 years or longer with proper care.
- Commercial equipment is made with higher-quality components. Commercial equipment is made with higher quality components, such as stronger, more durable motors and more robust heating elements, which can help facilities adhere to increasingly stringent standards for disinfection.
- Various sizes and configurations are available to meet the different needs of establishments. Commercial laundry equipment comes in a wide variety of specifications and configurations to meet the needs of varying customers. As a general rule, though, even the smallest commercial machines are much larger than somewhat comparable domestic versions.
- Unique system settings. Some commercial laundry equipment offers unique settings and features, such as hot fill (for faster cycles and lower energy consumption) and auto-dosing, ensuring the proper administration of detergent and other cleaning chemicals. These can optimize energy, water, and other consumable use, increasing efficiency, resulting in higher turnaround and lower operation costs.
