Changing Out Dryers at the Tiny Laundromat!

  • It has taken a very long time but we are finally removing the old giant 80 year old Cissell Dryers and moving in some slightly newer Speed Queen stackable dryers! The old Cissells got very hot but were incredibly inefficient and parts almost impossible to get if and when they break. One was already broken and not working. I bought the other machines from a out of business laundromat along with many other machines I am using in my other laundromat.

    Cut the old dryers in half with a sawzall to get them through the door and sell them for scrap.

    This is the moment I’ve been waiting for! I would’ve gone office space on the antique Cissell dyers before they went to the scrap yard.

    Hope get the old ones out. Good thing they were removed due to the wood flooring was falling apart. Can’t wait to see the updated look inside the laundromat. The towns people will be happy to see the new upgrades.

    Maybe use the torch to cut the dryers in half since nobody wants them, nice to see this positive step, looking better, even the flooring has kinda grown on me over the past year, lol.

    Nice! Finally, I've been anticipating for this to happen for a long time! Glad you are finally making progress.
    Crazy idea, but why don't you move the one stack Dexter dryers over to where that gap in the wall is, and put a third set of Speed Queen dryers at the end? I know it would require a lot of reventing and reconnecting, but I think it would be worth it! That's if you want to, of course! ❤

    Wow, you sure have a lot going on! It is really fun to see all these projects and how they turn out! You certainly deserve all your success because you are very hard-working and you just keep going and figuring things out! It’ll be fun to see when you get the entire laundromat all working again with the car wash and vacuum and all that, I bet you’ll see the revenue go way up at that point ! How exciting to be able to rent out that back building as well! Looks like things are looking up at that laundromat!

    A sawzall is surprisingly quick for cutting huge metal things into pieces. Without fire or sparks.

    Wow! The before and after are so different! You've done a great job of rehabbing the laundromat! Can you take apart the old dryers to remove them? I'm not sure if the drums would be larger than the doorway though. I think it would be fun taking a sledgehammer to them 🤣

    They sell a conversion kit change hopper (vs that stacked holder) for the Coffee Inns changer. You can also get a kit to make it take bigger bills.

    Will be interesting to see how much of a difference the new dryers make to the cost of utilities. Do they use less gas / electric? If so, how much will they save you?

  • @jaynecobb3701
    @jaynecobb3701 Před 3 měsíci

    6:09 You could start a wind chime museum. Charge 25¢ and collect a couple more quarters each week. A circular saw with a metal cutting blade could cut those machines down to removable bits pretty quick. That would probably be easier than removing the window.
