Steam Boilers for Laundry Facilities
Quality, Reliable Steam

Laundry services and dry cleaners, both small storefront operations and large industrial facilities, need quality, reliable steam in several ways. For laundries across North America Miura boilers play a crucial yet often overlooked role. Some large laundries who process linens and uniforms for hotel and healthcare facilities can cycle through over 1 million pounds of laundry per week. Often these organizations are on the leading-edge regarding initiatives to reduce their carbon footprint and limit their water waste, a once-through Miura boiler system can help them achieve these goals.

Commercial laundry and dry-cleaning services require massive amounts of water, and often the steam boiler is used to heat up the water that’s used in the washing machines. Often thousands of pounds worth of steam every hour is needed to heat the water used in a large-scale commercial operation. While it may seem counter intuitive to the home clothes washer, steam dryers are a common piece of technology in commercial laundries. Using steam often helps to reduce wrinkles and can also help the laundry to smell fresher than if dried with hot air. If the facility has a boiler that can produce quality steam at a high rate, you can use that steam to dry clothes and improve the quality of your laundry services.

In addition to washers and dryers, most laundry services also use specialized steam powered equipment for finishing like irons and presses. These all require steam that can be produced from the boiler system, larger and much more powerful than the average steam iron that people use at home they require more steam, higher pressure and often a central hook up to operate.
