Millers UK Upgrades Haydock Nursing Home With Miele Commercial Laundry Equipment

Haydock Nursing Home at Ramsgreave near Blackburn is a privately owned, modern, purpose-built home registered for up to 50 residents - all of whom enjoy the comfort of their en-suite rooms. Bright and spacious, Haydock Nursing Home has comfortable, well-furnished lounges and dining areas which provide a meeting place for residents to relax and enjoy the open aspect views of the surrounding countryside.

The nursing home runs twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Caring for over fifty patrons on a daily basis produced a significant strain on their current laundry capabilities. The nursing home needed a practical solution for drying significant amounts of laundry. 

Haydock were looking for productivity benefits but also the long term economic benefits from a commercial dryer. Chris Holden, the Director at Haydock Nursing Home sought the expertise of Scott Miller at Millers UK.

Chris understood that Millers UK had a strong partnership with Miele. A world-renowned manufacturer in the production of commercial laundry equipment. With Millers UK’s strong ties to Miele, Chris was confident that he would get the best advice, products and solution for the company.

All of Miele’s dryers are built to last up to 40,000 cycles. This is the equivalent of up to 18 years of service. Miele Professional laundry machines have very low consumption values and are known for maximum efficiency. Miele’s standard is applied right from the product development stage, they achieve perfect results by using recyclable materials and no more water, and energy and than needed.

Millers UK Ltd is a UK company based in Lancashire that provides the sales, service and installation of commercial catering & laundry equipment. Millers UK has very high standards in the laundry sector. The quality of Miller's service is seen with their 28+ years in business. During this time Millers UK has developed strategic partnerships with specific industry leaders. One connection that stands out is their Miele Professional Partnership.

Millers UK And The Miele Professional Partnership 

Scott Miller said, “We partnered up with Miele over 10 years ago, and the partnership has grown from strength to strength.” “We currently have eight service engineers active, and we cover all of Lancashire and the whole of the North West of the UK.” “We work in the laundry sector which, includes hospitals, NHS sites, care homes and veterinary practices.”

Millers UK carried out the installation of a Miele PT 8303 vented dryer for Haydock Nursing Home in Blackburn. One of the main reasons that Haydock Nursing Home choose vented dryers is due to its lower cost compared to the condenser or heat pump units. Miele has designed the PT 8303 vented dryer to provide the customer with space saving solutions.

The Benefits Of Miele Professional Laundry Equipment 

Miele is always improving on their design and technology. Innovation is a crucial ingredient of what makes Miele successful. The patented Honeycomb Drum is one of Miele’s flagship signatures. This unique design is more than just aesthetics, the honeycomb drum’s sole function is to protect both the machine and your laundry.

Just like Miele commercial washing machines, the drum creates a thin barrier of air between the machine and the laundry, which prevents the laundry from creasing.

The deep drum capacity of the Miele commercial dryer gives the user a substantial amount of space for a large load of laundry. The unit has a load capacity of 12 to 15 kg and a load ratio of 1:25 to 1:20. The PT 8303 has a drum volume of 300 litres.

The Miele Profitronic B Plus controls on the PT 8303 show the residual moisture, the remaining cycle time and the programming stage: Heating up, cooling down and anti-crease action. It is also possible to set the programme parameters individually as required. For delicate fabrics, it is possible to reduce the temperature from high to medium with the “low temperature”​ option.​​

Miele has incorporated its patented perfect dry system, which helps control the residual moisture of the clothes even when there is a change in the water quality. The perfect dry system can also control the conductivity of the water, which helps the machine’s ability to adapt during the drying process. The predefined residual moisture level is achieved precisely, preventing under or over-drying.

This vented commercial dryer is a part of Miele’s slimline range. The image below shows an installation that Millers UK did at Haydock Nursing Home. Here you can visualise the space needed for a vented dryer in your business.
