Lomira Fabricare, Lomira, WI

Augie Luedtke with Huebsch front load washers.

When Augie and his wife Andy Luedtke opened the Lomira Fabric Care Center in 1976 it was state of the art and even offered coin operated dry cleaning. This town of 2,500 in Dodge Co, WI, has enjoyed a modern, clean and comfortable laundry ever since. Through the years, changes have included the addition of large capacity Huebsch washers and tumblers, replacement of all top loaders with efficient Huebsch front load washers and the addition of air conditioning. Since selling their farm supply business last year, the Luedtke’s have enjoyed semi-retirement and have traveled the country from Maine to Arizona. Augie has served his community in many ways including a long term as Village President. Minnesota Chemical and the vended laundry industry is lucky to know the Luedtke’s and wishes them the best!

Possible Warranty Parts Claim — I want to help

Top of the morning Lassies and Lads!

I would like to discuss parts under warranty.

The first thing that I need to process a warranty is the make, model and serial number of your machine. You will find them located in the rear of the machine. There is a metal plate that is stamped printed with this information. I also need the install date- many times I can find this information on our computer system. When you purchase a part, it is important to mention that it could be under warranty. Sometimes customers do not realize the warranty length until I inquire. The factory pays the warranty claims but not the shipping charge.

The warranties submitted from us on your behalf must be reviewed by the factory’s experts. Usually this is done in a timely fashion. You can call me at 651-288-4849 or e-mail parts@minnesotachemical.com With machine information and I will register it. With every claim I will do my best to get the warranty paid.

Fun fact: Leprechauns are a protected species in Europe. – Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

Water Conservation for On-Premise Laundries

Milnor’s 60 lb. capacity washer-extractors feature RinSave® water conservation technology standard

Current economic conditions have forced healthcare facilities to focus on operating costs,
particularly back-of-the-house operations – including the on-premise laundry, according to healthcare operators.

This innovative process called RinSave® eliminates up to two high level rinses (.33 gallons per pound processed) and up to 10 minutes in the wash formula. It saves labor, water, sewer and electricity which are the largest direct operating expenses in the laundry. RinSave® conserves water, further substantiates your facility’s green program and is infinitely sustainable, without further investment.
