Gas, electric or steam? The right commercial dryer heat source depends on your site, not a generic cost assumption.
Before choosing equipment, compare:
• Available utilities and capacity: natural gas service, electrical capacity and existing steam infrastructure
• Infrastructure and installation needs for each option
• Energy cost structure against your facility’s actual local utility rates, considering how it may change as production volume grows
• Service requirements: burners, heating elements, or steam coils and traps
• Dryer performance for your linen mix and production schedule
For hotels, hospitals, banquet halls, resorts, laundromats and commercial laundries, a site-specific review helps align the heat source with operational needs and long-term operating costs.
