I want everyone to learn from our mistake. Two weeks ago we had a bad dryer fire in the middle of the night. It all started with WDF of a restraunts towels. We did the wash and had no problems. We then dried them, it was real late that night so after they finished drying we made sure the dryer was off and let them stay in the dryer for th AM shift to fold.
Well there was some sort of chemical on these towels that we were un aware of and through the night they smoldered and 2 hours later we finally had ignition. Luckly our ADT system caught it before the whole place went up. We had to replace 3 dryers and the dividening wall.
This was a really horrible error we made, I hope everyone will take my expierence to heart and avoid one of their own.
CHECK ALL DRYERS BEFORE YOU CLOSE!
GET A MONITORED SMOKE ALARM SYSTEM!
Good news is that our insurance covered most of the repairs and after a week of being closed we bounced right back.
