RIPON, WIS.—UniMac’s highly efficient drying tumblers and UW washer-extractors with UniLinc control were recently installed in the on-premises laundry at Cavallo Point-The Lodge at Golden Gate, Sausalito, Calif. Cavallo Point employed a broad reaching green strategy in all elements of its major rehabilitation project that turned a historic military fort into a unique upscale resort property.
In the laundry, management utilized a water reuse system to reduce its impact on the environment. With the water reuse system and the advanced programmability of UniMac washer-extractors, the laundry is able to decrease water use overall and reuse 70 percent of its wash water.
“Cavallo Point illustrates perfectly the type of green results that can be achieved in the laundry with the right mix of equipment and features,” said Kim Shady, vice president of distributor sales for UniMac. “Not only is the property reducing its laundry’s environmental impact, but it’s also not sacrificing any finished quality in the process.”
In addition to the water savings, Cavallo Point is reducing utility consumption through super-high G-force extraction cycles. With the washer-extractors’ final spin speed of 300 G-force, drying times are minimized, while finished goods on the ironer are processed faster.
Cavallo Point is currently awaiting LEED certification for its environmental efficiency efforts.
