According to the NFPA, a standard called NFPA 1851 “establishes requirements for the selection, care and maintenance of firefighting protective ensembles to reduce health and safety risks associated with improper maintenance, contamination or damage.”
Unfortunately, firefighting gear cannot be washed at home. That means it should be taken to a dry cleaning facility or laundromat. There is another option, however, and many fire departments consider this one to be the most beneficial.
Benefits of Onsite Laundry Equipment for Fire Departments
Having laundry machines onsite for firefighters is key for various different reasons, especially if those machines are made by Speed Queen or Continental Girbau.
Benefits of Having In-House Laundry Equipment
- Ability to add a start and stop time between cycles
- Ability to wash and dry up to three sets of gear per day
- All laundry equipment meets and exceeds MFPA regulations
- Automatic programming can ensure water temps do not exceed standard protocol
- Effectively clean turnout gear without worrying about violating codes and standards
- Eliminates need for expensive outside vendors
- Eliminates the need for an employee that drops off and picks up gear each time the gear is contaminated
- Faster draining time
- Inspect and repair gear quickly, before and after washing and drying
- Little to no maintenance washer extractors and drying cabinets
- Meet the needs to protect the health of all fire department members
- Programming options available to guarantee precise wash formula is dispensed depending on temps, dirtiness and material type
- Quicker drying time without exceeding standards
- Saves a great deal of money, per year
- Specialized drying cabinets specifically made for firefighter turnout gear
- Wash and dry more gear per day, without worrying about violating any codes
