there are Laundry Systems of sorts that supply places like Restaurants, Nursing Facilities, Hospitals, Military, etc.....
they also supply Laundromats, and units needing coin/card vending..... in my neck of the woods, for the Eastern Coast, Caleco located in Pennsylvania provides these machines and service....and usually put into use for about 5 years, the length of the warranty period....then exchanged for new ones under a contract..... the old ones as I lucked out was able to purchase for 25.00 a piece, they were used for the Military....I got these in 2010, the ECO versions were the replacement at that time...I bought 10 sets, still plenty of life in them.... its a constant turn around with these machines and the company that supplies them, there has to be others located across the United States.... find out if these were a flat out purchase, or under a lease/contract, and who supplies them to the facility..... and as I did, paid 50.00 for a set.....sold them for 400.00, nice profit margin

I had no idea that SQ retained the same knob and dial design from the last version of Raytheon machines for so long. Based on first glance, I'd have advised to run away from those washers. I'm still skeptical about how well they rinse. That's one thing that Alliance hasn't improved upon.
It's safe to say the clicking sound you're hearing during agitation is coming from a chewed up belt. We had a '97 Raytheon Amana that ate through belts on a regular basis so I'm familiar with that sound. |
