When fan performance is critical to your uptime and profits, you want it to provide years of reliable service. That’s why you should never send a commercial fan to do an industrial fan’s job.
I bought a new washer and dryer a few months ago. The stacker model I used previously lasted about 15 years, which is pretty good. If you haven’t looked at washers lately, then you may not know that most of them don’t have agitators. To me this doesn’t make sense. How do the clothes get cleaned without being agitated?
