PHS Laundryserv Helps Save Money, Energy and Water with the Latest Range of FX Washing Machines
Cardiff (PRWEB UK) 23 July 2013 -- With the constant increases in water, electricity and gas prices, reducing your utility usage can create substantial savings on your bills, therefore it’s more important than ever that your laundry isn’t equipped with utility guzzling machines. Making changes in your laundry can make a big difference to the bottom line, which is why PHS Laundryserv, one of the UK’s leading suppliers of commercial laundry equipment, has introduced the energy saving FX range of Primus washing machines.
Laundryserv’s FX washers can create substantial savings as they use 15% less water and 20% less energy without compromising on wash quality and with the enhanced water extraction reducing the residual moisture, the energy required for drying can be reduced by up to 25%.
As the latest addition to Laundryserv’s range of commercial laundry equipment, the FX washers have been ergonomically designed, making the equipment easy to use with intuitive digital controls. However it’s the new and unique drum design that has been the catalyst for the utility savings.
The patented Cascade drum has been designed to both maximise water extraction whilst also minimising the amount of water required for a cycle. The inner surface of the drum has a unique undulating surface design, which when combined with the large number of perforations, helps to remove the maximum amount of water, leaving fabrics with much lower residual moisture levels. This design also ensures that linen doesn’t stick to the surface of the drum despite the 400G extraction cycle, which when combined with the large door opening makes unloading an easy task.
Changes have also been made to the location of the heating elements, which means that less water is required, and with the Powerwash perforated lifting ribs which increase the wash efficiency by increasing the spray movement of the water onto the linen, there is no compromise on the wash quality. And because less water is required, the energy required to heat it is also reduced.
Lynne Vanes, Laundryserv’s Managing Director explained, “We’re really pleased to be able to offer the FX washers, as they offer businesses real savings on their energy and water bills, without compromising on wash quality, and with the range available in capacities from 8 to 28kg they’re ideal for any size hotel business.” She also added, “Sites may also be able to make even greater savings using the FX’s Eco programmes, which offer cycles with even lower water and energy consumption, and have been tested and proven as being ideal for laundry with lower levels of soiling.”
