Moving In-House
On-premise laundries allow businesses to manage their own laundry, giving them more flexibility and control. On-premise laundries allow managers to oversee the laundry process and ensure it is completed to the highest standard.
Many businesses are limited on space and, as such, may not feel that they have the space required to accommodate an in-house laundry, however bringing laundries in-house can make a huge difference to costs. Miele Professional’s Little Giants and the washer-dryer PWT 6089 are machines that offer high-performance laundry on the smallest of footprints; the PWT 6089 is a stackable unit that stands less than 2m tall and has a 1m2
footprint. The machines
easily fit through a standard doorway, making them easy to install in the most challenging of spaces – in fact, they could even be installed in a store room – and if the machines were in use every day with cycles running continuously, it would take just one hour a day to load and unload.
Speed and reliability are also both important factors. Miele’s PT 8257WP heat pump dryer has a drum volume of 250l and a load capacity of between 10kg and 13kg of laundry. This model excels in terms of short cycle times: 10kg of laundry is completely dried in only 44 minutes (with a reduction in residual moisture level from 50% to 0%). So, the high volume and fast rotation demands of this industry are perfectly accommodated through the heat pump machine.
In these sites, machines run for long periods of time continuously throughout the day and any downtime has to be minimised. Of course, cost effectiveness does

Miele Professional are here to explain why their commercial laundry products are the ones to beat when it comes to being economical as well as eco-efficient.
play a key role, but businesses are increasingly interested in looking at lifetime costs and purchasing machines that last longer and are more reliable in the long run. Miele Professional’s ethos is ‘Forever Better’, and all products have a proven life of at least 20 years.
Businesses are increasingly interested in looking at lifetime costs and purchasing machines that last longer and are more reliable in the long run.
At the same time, energy bills are soaring and businesses need to find ways of cutting costs. At the end of 2012, Miele Professional launched new commercial tumble dryers, called H2O dryers, which are heated using only hot water. This water can come from a variety of sources, but it is used to heat-process air in a heat exchanger in a H2O dryer with programmes specially designed to take gentle care of laundry at lower air temperatures. This new type of heating is available on tumble dryers with various load capacities, ranging from 325l to 800l models for 10kg to 32kg of laundry – all models also feature Miele's patented honeycomb drum.
The H2O dryers reduce heating costs to virtually zero if the source of heat is a co-generation plant: in this case, the hot water is a by- product of cooling the generation plant, so doesn't need to be heated separately. This approach also offers the additional benefit of cooling the water in the H2O dryer for reuse as cooling water in co-generation.
Miele Professional’s uniquely gentle fabric care, fast cycle times and products that save money and adapt to their environment: these are all key for any business looking to install an on-premise laundry.
