Central & Multi-Housing Laundries

Proper laundry facilities can be an important part of planning and maintaining any multi-unit housing. Many tenants need and look for laundry facilities when considering housing, and convenient facilities can often impact their leasing decisions. Having an on-premise laundry can help make a great impact in attracting and keeping tenants and can also be a valuable source of additional revenue!

Whether you provide complementary or vended laundry services, SLM offers Dexter Laundry Equipment designed to perfectly fit the multi-housing market and we know you are working hard to minimize your energy and water usage. That's why you'll find Dexter washers and dryers in multi-housing laundries worldwide.

Larger Apartment Facilities

Large apartment structures can house many residents in a small space, and laundry facilities are very important in making your guests feel at home. For bigger apartment facilities, Dexter recommends a central laundry location on the main floor of your structure with one Dexter washer and one Dexter dryer for every 20 units.

High Rise Apartments

High-rise apartments can hold a large amount of residents in a small space, and laundry facilities are very important in making your guests fill at home. Depending upon the height of the structure, the laundry can be concentrated in one large area or in several smaller locations throughout the building. One Dexter washer and one dryer is recommended for every 20 units.

Small, Low Rise or Garden Apartments Complexes

For these smaller housing facilities, laundry locations can vary by layout, but are usually located in convenient common areas. One Dexter washer and one Dexter dryer pair are recommended for every 8 to 12 apartment units. You may also consider using Whirlpool topload washers and Whirlpool single or stack dryers.

Condos, Co-ops, Senior Centers, Assisted Living & Communal Living

For planned communities, centralized laundry rooms or small laundry areas with matching washers and dryers are the most common. Usually these establishments are amenity oriented, offering folding tables and vending machines for the tenant's convenience. One Dexter washer and one Dexter dryer are recommended for every 8 to 12 residences.
