The Electrolux WE170P is a cracking bit of engineering for businesses stepping up from domestic appliances. It strikes a fantastic balance between performance and  footprint, offering serious laundry power without needing a massive utility room.

  • Pros: The speed is remarkable; it genuinely turns laundry around in record time.
  • Cons: While robust, it's a significant investment compared to high-end domestic models.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Old Mill Bistro in Bakewell, Derbyshire, was struggling with an old domestic washing machine that couldn't cope with their daily volume of aprons and  table linens. They upgraded to the Electrolux WE170P to increase their laundry capacity and  speed up the process.

"We used to have a bottleneck in the kitchen every afternoon waiting for the laundry to finish. The Electrolux is brilliant; it just ploughs through the washing. The difference it has made to our daily routine is incredible – we have fresh linens ready in a fraction of the time."

Michael Davies – Head Chef

The bistro now processes its entire daily laundry load before the evening service begins, increasing staff efficiency by an estimated 20%.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the machine is placed on a solid, level floor to minimise vibration.
  • Connect both the hot and  cold water inlet hoses to the corresponding supplies.
  • Position the drain hose securely in your standpipe or drainage point.
  • As it comes with a standard 13 amp plug, simply plug it in and  you're ready to go.

Keeping It Going

  • Regularly check and  clean the pump filter to prevent blockages from lint and  debris.
  • Wipe down the door seal after use to prevent mould and  unpleasant odours.
  • Run a hot maintenance wash cycle once a month with a suitable cleaner to keep the drum fresh.
  • Periodically inspect the water inlet and  drain hoses for any signs of wear or leaks.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Washing Machine

Finding the right commercial laundry machine can be tricky. Here are a few key things to consider to make sure you get the perfect fit for your business.

Capacity vs. Load

Consider your busiest day. An 8kg drum like this is ideal for businesses with consistent, daily loads of towels, bedding, or uniforms. Don't oversize, but don't underestimate your needs either.

Spin Speed (RPM)

A higher spin speed (like 1400 RPM) removes more water from fabrics. This means less time and  money spent on tumble drying – a huge long-term saving.

Drainage System

This model features a drain pump, which gives you flexibility. It can push waste water up and  away, so you don't need a floor-level gravity drain right next to the machine.

Energy and  Water Efficiency

An A+++ rating and  a hot water inlet are massive plus points. They directly translate to lower utility bills, making the machine cheaper to run over its lifespan.

Specialised Cycles

Do you operate in healthcare, care, or hospitality? Programmes like thermal disinfection are essential for meeting hygiene regulations (CFPP01-04) and  ensuring safety.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this machine need to be professionally installed?

A: While installation is straightforward with standard water and  power connections, we always recommend a qualified plumber ensures everything is correctly and  safely connected.

Q: What power supply does the Electrolux WE170P need?

A: It's designed for convenience and  runs off a standard 230V, 13 amp supply, meaning you can just plug it into a regular wall socket.

Q: How is this different from a heavy-duty domestic washing machine?

A: The Electrolux myPRO laundry washer is built with commercial-grade components, designed to run multiple cycles per day, and  features professional programmes that domestic machines lack.

Q: Can it be installed underneath a worktop?

A: With a height of 850mm, it is designed to fit under most standard commercial countertops. Always measure your space carefully first.

Q: Is it suitable for washing heavily soiled items like chef's whites or mechanics' overalls?

A: Absolutely. The professional programmes, hot water feed, and  robust drum action are designed to effectively clean tough stains and  heavy soiling.

Q: What does having a drain pump mean?

A: The drain pump actively pushes waste water out, allowing you to install the machine even if the drainpipe is higher than the outlet, offering much greater placement flexibility.

Q: Is this machine noisy to operate?

A: It’s specifically engineered with shock absorbance and  balanced components to ensure minimal vibration and  noise, making it suitable for use close to customer areas.

Q: How long do the fast cycles take?

A: Cycle times vary based on the programme and  temperature, but it's designed to be up to 50% faster than comparable domestic machines, significantly speeding up your laundry turnaround.

How the Hot-Water Inlet Slashes Your Energy Bills

Ever wondered why your energy bills are so high? A lot of it comes from your appliances having to heat cold water from scratch. The Electrolux WE170P has a clever trick up its sleeve: a hot-water inlet. This means it can take hot water directly from your building’s existing hot water supply. Think of it like making a cup of tea – instead of waiting for a cold kettle to boil, you're using water that's already hot from the tap. The machine's heating element only needs to top up the temperature, if at all. This simple feature drastically cuts the time and  energy needed for each wash, saving you real money on every single cycle.
