Yes, it is designed for regular professional workloads in ironing services, hotels, care homes, launderettes and garment workrooms. Its 5-litre boiler provides approximately 3–5 hours of use per fill, helping staff complete extended ironing sessions with fewer interruptions. It is best suited to buyers who value repairable, long-life equipment rather than a lower-cost system for occasional use.
The thermostatically heated table helps keep the ironing surface dry, while the foot-pedal vacuum holds fabric flat and draws away residual moisture. Together with 40psi pressurised steam from the boiler, this supports a crisper, more consistent finish on garments, uniforms and linen. The vacuum function is particularly useful for reducing movement during finishing and limiting the need for repeat pressing.
Routine flushing is essential to help minimise scale and sediment inside the stainless steel boiler. The system includes a drain tap, blowdown valve and blowdown bottle to make this maintenance more practical. Using filtered or distilled water where possible, carrying out regular blowdowns and arranging sensible routine servicing can support the stated potential service life of 20 years or more.
Allow space for a 1170mm x 390mm ironing surface, the boiler trolley and safe access around the workstation. The vacuum table folds flat for storage and has three working-height positions of 92cm, 87cm and 83cm, allowing a more suitable setup for different operators. Its iron rest can also be fitted for either left- or right-handed use.
The package includes a 5-litre stainless steel steam boiler, cork-handled professional iron, heated vacuum table, Teflon shoe, blowdown bottle and boiler trolley. The Teflon shoe helps protect delicate fabrics and reduce shine, while the trolley makes the boiler easier to position. Boiler cover is five years, and the heated vacuum table has a two-year warranty.
