Commercial washing machines are commonly used in small to medium laundry rooms such as launderettes, care homes and hotels. In comparison, industrial washers can process larger volumes of laundry and linen in a shorter time and are usually installed within hospitals, central laundries and other businesses of a more extensive nature. One key difference between a commercial & industrial washer is the drum size and capacity of the machine.

On average, the lifespan of a commercial or industrial washing machine is 10 to 15 years which could equal over 100,000 running hours. The duration will depend on how frequently the product is used, and to get the maximum life, you should perform regular maintenance on your equipment.
