The laundry chute (sometimes known as laundry shoot or clothes shoot or shute) or the laundry jet is a great way to keep your home clean and tidy. It’s a simple solution that will save time and money. There are many types of laundry chute solutions available, some are made of plastic, others are metal (stainless steel is the type of laundry chute we recommend the most ). They come in various sizes and shapes. Some are designed to fit under the sink or inside cupboards, while most are built into the wall. Preferably a laundry chute door can be accessible for everyone in the house. Ideally the door should be in a hallway close to the bedrooms with the laundry chute behind the wall in a cupboard or boxed in.

A modern laundry or linen chute is a tube or duct that runs from one upper part of a home or building to another lower part. The purpose of the chute is to allow a person to safely drop clothes or linen from a higher level of the home or building down into a lower level or basement where the washing machine and dryers are located. Our system is made of stainless steel grade 316L seamlessly welded and smooth on the inside and outside. Ideally the laundry chute should run straight down although it can be offset to a maximum of 45 degrees. Modern laundry chutes in the UK and Ireland are becoming more and more popular.

You can also find out more information on why you should buy one, here, Reasons to Install a Laundry Chute.

The laundry chute is a simple device used to move clothes from the upper floor to the washing machine. It consists of a tube which runs through the floor of the house to the area where the laundry will be cleaned. This tube is made of stainless steel and is secured to the wall with wall brackets. There are two types of laundry chutes; gravity fed and suction driven. Gravity fed laundry chutes use the force of gravity to pull the clothes down the tube. Power driven laundry chutes use a motor to suck the clothes down the tube, making it easier to load and unload the clothes.

This is an important question. If you are considering buying a house, then you should know if there is a laundry chute available. This is because a laundry chute is a great way to save time, space and money when doing your washing.
A laundry chute is a smooth stainless steel tube which leads from an upper floor of your house down to a lower floor. If you don’t have a laundry chute, you are at risk of tripping or falling downstairs due to carrying dirty clothes and baskets then you need to consider installing one. There are many benefits to having a laundry chute installed. For example, it saves space in your laundry room, you can send clothes down and carry on cleaning. You can't have a laundry chute if it's a bungalow (unless you are considering installing a power driven Laundry Jet; laundry jet is a chute that transports laundry for rooms with ports installed and is a vacuum powered laundry chute). You can check out a review for the popular Laundry Jet make here, Laundry Jet Review. Suitable residential homes in the UK range from 2 to 7 floors. New builds and renovation projects can accommodate a laundry chute easier as there is already ongoing building work. Ideally a straight vertical drop into the utility room is the perfect situation. However, slight offsets or even angles up to 45 degrees can be fitted without laundry getting stuck halfway down. So, if you are thinking about buying a house, then check if there is a laundry room available. Contact us and we will be able to offer some advice about the ideal location and size of the laundry chute in your house.

Consider ending the laundry chute in a tall cupboard that hides the pipe and the dirty clothes. The end of the laundry chute ideally should be just inside the top of the cupboard with a shelf to accommodate a basket as high as the user is comfortable with. You can then fit shelves with baskets below this to separate the colours and whites. You may also want to keep the pipe on show as a feature. The laundry would then drop straight into a basket. Or you might prefer to have the pipe hidden away with a door at the bottom of the chute. This way the laundry is hidden away until you are ready to do the washing.
Features:

Floor to ceiling cupboard
Pipe visible or hidden
Laundry basket
Door at the bottom

Benefits:

Chute and laundry hidden away
Keeps the washing area tidy and free of smells
More space for other items
Less mess

We recently had a large hotel group purchase a linen chute but they wanted to install themselves in different stages of the hotel build. We supplied an engineer to train their tradesmen in starting the chute and how to complete first fix. He will return on completion of the installation to test the interlocking doors and integrity of the chute prior to final fix.

If your business is going to be successful in this competitive market, it’s important that you have enough storage space for all of your equipment. You need to make sure that there are plenty of shelves and racks for storing everything from washers to dryers to hampers to clothespins to detergent to cleaning supplies to boxes of clean laundry to empty bins to dirty laundry to folded. The average size of a commercial laundry room is approximately 7,000 square feet, according to the National Cleaners Association (NCA). That means if you have two floors, you should plan on having at least 14,000 square feet of space. If you have three floors, you should plan for 21,000 square feet. And if you have four floors, you should plan to have 28,000 square feet.

We have a huge range of laundry chutes available for purchase online. Our laundry chutes come in different sizes and styles, including 250mm to 400mm for domestic, 500mm to 900mm for commercial. All of our laundry chutes are made from high quality materials and are designed to last. You should determine the total volume of laundry produced by your operation in order to work out what size of laundry chute to go for. Once you know the total amount of laundry generated by your facility, divide this figure by the total cubic footage of space available to store the laundry. This calculation gives you the approximate cubic feet needed to store the laundry. You can also maintain your laundry chute with us, you can find more information on that here, Laundry Chute Maintenance Checklist.
