When it comes to choosing the right equipment for your on-campus laundry, there are a number of important factors to consider. In addition to considering the type of payments you want to integrate into your laundry room, you'll also need to take into consideration the types of machines you want to include. Before you begin to select the equipment for your facility, you will need to carefully consider the amount of space you have available for equipment, the types of equipment you will need, and whether the existing layout of your laundry will remain the same. If your college or university needs laundry equipment in North Carolina, T & L would be glad to help you. Call us today for a free estimate!
Outfitting Laundry Rooms at Colleges or Universities
While the idea of completely renovating your existing laundry facility or putting in small laundries on each floor can seem daunting, there are many benefits to making these changes for both students and the school's bottom line.
These are some of the important things to consider when choosing the equipment for your on-campus laundry needs.
Laundry Location
Most college dormitories and student housing units have their laundry facilities in the basement. However, new smaller stackable machines no longer mean that the basement is the only place you can set aside for your students to do their laundry. Stackable machines offer good load capacity while requiring a small amount of space. Height is the most crucial consideration when it comes to selecting an installation location for one of these stackable units. With a few of these machines on the dorm floors, students can quickly and easily access washers and dryers.
Laundry Layout
The existing layout of your campus laundry room may not be taking full advantage of the space available for laundry equipment. The commercial laundry specialists at T & L Laundry Equipment can help you evaluate your existing layout and equipment. By rearranging the equipment in your laundry room or renovating the space, you may find that you are able to offer your students a more diverse selection of washers and dryers which can give them the ability to wash larger items like comforters or loads of towels without overfilling machines. Renovating your on-campus laundry can also help improve the energy efficiency of your laundry room. New Energy-Star rated washers and dryers from Speed Queen can help shorten laundry cycles, improve energy usage, and deliver a higher quality clean.
