Washing Machine & Dryer Maintenance Contracts

Running an onsite laundry is hard work, so the last thing you want is to have a machine breakdown. Machine downtime will have a negative effect on your business, whether it’s lost revenue in a laundromat, resident dissatisfaction at a health care facility, or lost income from the inability to rent out a room in a hotel.

Don’t try to juggle too many things at once. Consider a convenient maintenance contract to take care of your washers and dryers. Giving you piece of mind your laundry operation is performing at its optimum.

The Importance of Servicing Machines

It is easy to forget that commercial washing machines and dryers operate for more hours in a day than the average car which gets serviced more often. To take care of your laundry equipment investment, keep on top of your service history and perform simple maintenance and repairs as required.

For even better and longer-lasting results, you should have your machines regularly serviced by an industry professional.

Regular washing machine maintenance by industry professionals is crucial for enhancing their efficiency, safety, and longevity. The benefits of regular laundry machine maintenance include: 

• Extended Lifespan: Regular maintenance significantly extends the lifespan of both washing machines and dryers. By addressing minor issues before they escalate into major problems, you can avoid costly repairs or replacements. For instance, cleaning components like the drum and lint filter help prevent wear and tear, ensuring the appliances last longer.

• Improved Efficiency: Well-maintained machines operate more efficiently, which translates to lower energy consumption. For example, a clean dryer vent allows for better airflow, reducing drying times and energy bills. Similarly, a washing machine that is regularly cleaned will use less water and energy to perform its tasks effectively.

• Prevention of Mechanical Breakdowns: Routine servicing helps identify potential issues early on, such as worn hoses or clogged filters. This proactive approach minimises the risk of unexpected breakdowns that could disrupt laundry routines and lead to expensive repairs.

• Enhanced Safety: Neglected appliances can pose safety hazards. For example, lint buildup in dryers is a common cause of fires. Regular inspections ensure that all components are functioning correctly and safely, reducing the likelihood of accidents.

• Cost Savings: While there is an upfront cost associated with professional servicing, it often leads to significant savings in the long run. Efficient appliances consume less energy, and catching small problems early can prevent expensive repairs or replacements down the line.

• Preservation of Clothing Quality: A well-maintained washing machine is less likely to damage clothing due to rough edges or malfunctioning parts. Regular maintenance ensures that laundry comes out clean and intact, preserving the quality of your garments over time.

How Often Should You Service Laundry Machines?

Laundry washers and dryers are built for robustness; however, they are the most utilised appliances in a coin laundry business, for example. To ensure your machines are always operating efficiently, you should check your washers and dryers once a month.

This is as simple as checking the:

• Fixings/anchorage to floor
• Inlet valve filters
• Drain pumps
• Hoses
• Rubber gaskets and drums

You want to be sure there are no loose fittings, cracks, bulges or leaks. If you notice any of these hazards, get them fixed immediately. Even the smallest crack can become expensive to repair. It is recommended that you have your washers and dryers serviced every 3 months and no longer than every 12 months. Regularly servicing your machines can save you time and money. On the other hand, the longer you leave it, the greater the costs will be which can impact other areas of your business.
