At Richard Jay, we often receive inquiries about why we exclusively offer LG commercial washers and dryers as part of our commercial laundry solutions. It’s a valid question, and the answer lies in our commitment to providing you with laundry equipment that not only meets but exceeds your expectations.
- Durability and Longevity
LG commercial laundry equipment is built to endure the demands of commercial use, which is designed to last 10,000 cycles in the right conditions. This translates to 3 to 4 times longer durability compared to most domestic washer and dryer brands. LG is a manufacturer that produces around 14 million washers per year, ensuring you receive a reliable and robust product. - Multiple Capacities
Our LG washer range includes two capacities – 10 kg with a 100-litre drum volume and 15 kg with a 147-litre drum volume. These options cater to various business needs.
Now, let’s dive into the standout features that set LG washers apart from the competition:
- Direct Drive Motor
LG’s direct drive motor is not only more reliable but also quieter than belt and pulley alternatives. The precise control of drum action results in superior wash performance. - Advanced Balancing System
The accelerometer in our washers manages vibration during the final extraction, optimising G-force to reduce residual moisture and subsequent drying times. This smart balancing system minimises maintenance and maximises extraction, ensuring a reliable and efficient product. - Twin Spray Technology
LG’s Twin Spray uses a pump located at the base of the drain cavity to recirculate water back into the drum. This speeds up saturation times, prevents chemical buildup, and enhances cleaning results while conserving water. - Tub Clean Feature
To maintain a hygienic experience for your customers, LG washers come with a unique Tub Clean feature. It uses a 2000W element to heat and with aggressive water agitation, removes build-up. We recommend using this program every 50 cycles with vinegar to ensure the best customer experience. - Cost-Effective Spare Parts
LG offers low-cost spare parts, prolonging the lifespan of your equipment without straining your budget. This approach ensures the lowest total cost of ownership for our customers.
LG commercial laundry equipment is versatile and suited for various business applications:
- Student Accommodation – Our stacked washer/dryer combo provides outstanding capacity in a small footprint, making it perfect for student accommodation. The direct drive motor ensures quiet operation, allowing students to focus on their studies or rest.
- Mining Camps – Mining camps appreciate LG’s reliability, compact design, and minimal water usage. In remote locations with limited tech support, reliability is essential for maintaining clean gear. LG’s low water usage helps conserve precious resources.
- Touristic Parks – In touristic parks, our washers and dryers, available in coin or cashless configurations, serve park visitors effectively. The accelerometer technology improves spin-outs and reduces energy usage, making it ideal for mixed or underloaded machines.
- Correctional Facilities – Reliability and low repair costs are crucial in correctional facilities, where access for technicians is challenging and equipment abuse is high. LG equipment’s durability and affordability of spare parts minimise maintenance efforts.
- Apartment Buildings – LG is a popular choice for shared laundry facilities in apartment buildings. The quiet operation and advanced balancing technology ensure happy residents, freeing up space in smaller apartments.
