Keep your Brisbane laundry up to date with these technologies
A Brisbane laundry renovation is the perfect opportunity to take advantage of the latest laundry room technology and bring your home into the modern age. From the latest in high-tech wizardry to more straightforward quality-of-life improvements, these suggestions will help you create the perfect laundry room design.
Washer and dryer combos
Space is always at a premium in the laundry of many Brisbane homes, with no room for both a washing machine and a dryer. A washer-dryer combo is an excellent choice for getting the best of both worlds. They also come with the added convenience of not having to remember to take the clothes out of the washer.
Wi-Fi-enabled washer-dryers are the ultimate in Brisbane laundry renovation technology. You can check in on your wash from anywhere in the house. Appliances like the GE Smart Front Load can even work out the detergent needs for each wash. Fill up its sizable reservoir just once, and forget about it for the rest of the month.
Hot water systems
Most older Brisbane homes have outdated, inefficient hot water systems. Sure, they do the job, but you can save some money and do the environment some good by updating your hot water system to a newer, more efficient model.
Water heating accounts for around a quarter of total energy consumption in a home. The savings can be quite significant, so it’s a great reason to review your aging hot water system when considering a Brisbane laundry renovation. You have a choice between gas, electric, and solar, but talk to your Brisbane laundry renovator to ensure you get the best option for your home.
Cabinetry systems
One area that older Brisbane homes could benefit from is the laundry cabinets. In many older homes, storage space was more of an afterthought than a serious consideration. However, a well-designed storage system is a key to making you more efficient in the laundry, and keeping the space neat, tidy, and free of pests.
Docks for mobile phones and tablets
In this day and age when we rely on our smartphones and tablets to keep us connected and even control the washing machine and dryer, docks for storing and keeping your mobile technology can come in handy during an extended ironing session.
Built-in ironing boards
Those clunky ironing boards with fold-out legs are a necessary evil for most Brisbane homes. They are a pain to get out and set up every time you want to do the ironing, and they look out of place and ruin your decor when you leave them out for convenience. A built-in ironing board that folds up out of the way is the perfect solution. They are simple to operate and don’t take up any space when not in use.
