A standard household washing machine will not be suitable for most hotels; so, youll need to invest in an <a href=\"https:\/\/washstation-trade.co.uk\/products\/washing-machines\/industrial-barrier\/\">industrial washing machine<\/a> or something which has the capacity to handle this demand. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/washstation-trade.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Untitled-design-68_11zon.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Laundry Equipment For Hotels&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Laundry Equipment For Hotels&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;1px&#8221; border_color_all=&#8221;#1c0700&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;4c43b4b6-66bf-432d-959a-705bda24a650&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;14px|||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; ul_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; ul_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>Energy-efficient washing machines<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to the size of your machine, youll want to consider its energy efficiency and durability. Having a machine designed to perform 40,000 large washes in its lifetime is not energy efficient if you are a small B&amp;B that only does a few cycles a week. Choosing the right machine will ensure the correct water consumption, meaning you wont waste money on every wash.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Its also important to keep in mind that you need to fill the washer for every cycle; under loading can cause unnecessary strain on the mechanics of the washer, not to mention it will waste water. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take a look through the manuals below to see which option will be right for the size of your establishment:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/washstation-trade.co.uk\/products\/washing-machines\/industrial-barrier\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Industrial Washing Machines<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/washstation-trade.co.uk\/products\/washing-machines\/commercial-washers\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Commercial Washing Machines<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/washstation-trade.co.uk\/products\/washing-machines\/heavy-professional-washers\/\">Professional Washing Machines<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All of the above washing machines can be used in hotels, B&amp;Bs, restaurants and other establishments.
