Automatic
Laundry has long recognized that although community laundry rooms require
utilities – water and energy – to operate, installing state of the art
equipment and providing state of the art technology will minimize the
environmental impact of its laundry rooms. Automatic Laundry works closely
with its manufacturing partners and customers to provide the most
technologically advanced and energy friendly equipment available to reduce
the impact laundry rooms have on the environment.
Environmental responsibility begins with laundry equipment. Automatic
Laundry exclusively uses Speed Queen equipment. Speed Queen washers and
dryers are Energy Star ™ qualified and the most energy efficient commercial
laundry equipment available. Speed Queen’s front load washers offer
significant water reduction as compared to water usage in top load machines.
A matched set of Speed Queen washers and dryers provides maximum utility
efficiency. For example, the unrivalled extract speed of the washer spin
cycle leaves considerably less water in clothing at the end of a washer
cycle; therefore, the dryer cycle takes less time to dry clothing, saving
energy in the process.
Automatic Laundry’s entire business operation is cognizant of and
responsive to environmentally conscious practices. As a leader in
technological advances, Automatic Laundry initiated laundry payment programs
that are environmentally friendly. For example, cashless laundry systems
eradicate the need for additional collectors, thereby reducing the need for
collection vehicles. In addition, service calls requesting response to
jammed coin boxes are also eradicated.
Of course, in order to provide proper service to its customers, Automatic
Laundry employs a fully stocked service fleet. In order to reduce gas usage,
Automatic Laundry monitors the fleet through GPS technology and dispatches
calls through its computerized call system. When a service call is placed,
we are able to immediately see which technician is closest to the problem,
and dispatch the nearest service van to respond to the call. GPS eliminates
unnecessarily lengthy travel. We are also able to monitor the manner in
which the vehicles are operated, ensuring that gas mileage is optimized. Of
course, all of our vehicles undergo routine maintenance checks to make sure
that they operate at maximum performance levels.
Our Vent Jet ™ technology cleans
dryer vent systems permitting dryers to dry clothes more quickly, thereby
expending less energy. Clogged vents impede efficient equipment performance
and Automatic Laundry’s routine maintenance schedule makes sure that clogged
vents will not lead to unnecessary energy use.
