When to upgrade laundry equipment.

Take a deep look at your business. Does it look old? Are you spending more and more time and money in repairs? Are you just not bringing in as much revenue as you once did? If you’re wondering when to upgrade laundry equipment those should be your first clues.

The most important clue though, it’s definitively revenue. Old machines not only increase your bills, they also drive customers away.

Renovating your store will not only save you money in the long run, it can also bring back clients you have lost and even bring in new ones.

According to the Coin Laundry Association, the accepted standard of useful life for commercial laundry equipment is as follows:

• Top Load washers (12 lbs. to 14 lbs.): 5-8 years
• Front Load washers (18 lbs. to 50 lbs.): 10-15 years
• Dryers (30 lbs. to 60 lbs.): 10-15 years
• Heating Systems: 10-15 years
• Coin Changers: 10-15 years

So… When it’s the right time to upgrade laundry equipment?

If your machines are older than that then it’s time to stop asking and start acting. Then answer is probably: NOW!
