Hospital, surgical, and continuing-care laundry operations don't have the option to "let it slide" on cycle quality or equipment reliability. A failure in linen processing isn't an inconvenience — it's a potential infection-control failure that can be a regulatory issue. The equipment, chemistry, cycles, and documentation requirements all reflect this.
The Healthcare Laundry Accreditation Council (HLAC) sets the most widely recognized accreditation standards for healthcare laundries in the United States. While HLAC accreditation itself is voluntary, many hospital systems require accreditation (or accreditation-equivalent practices) from their on-premise and contracted laundries.
For equipment, HLAC standards translate into specific requirements:
UniMac's UniLinc Touch control system is designed to support these requirements with pre-built thermal disinfection cycle templates and chemical-injection logging that can feed directly into compliance documentation.
HM Commercial Laundry has served healthcare facilities across NJ, eastern PA, NYC, and Delaware for 37+ years, including hospital systems, ambulatory surgical centers, dialysis facilities, mental health facilities, nursing and continuing care, hospice, and specialty pediatric care. We understand the operational, regulatory, and infection-control rhythms healthcare operations live under, and we structure service response, parts inventory, and PM cadence to match.
Many healthcare campuses sit alongside hotels, conference centers, and other hospitality properties that lean on the same in-house laundry rooms. For those operations we provide hotel & hospitality laundry repair and emergency service — preventative maintenance, fast washer and dryer repair, and genuine parts on all major brands of hospitality laundry equipment, so a down machine never strands a property mid-shift.
Common questions from hospitals and healthcare facilities specifying laundry equipment with HM Commercial Laundry in New Jersey.
UniMac washer-extractors with UniLinc Touch controls support HLAC compliance through documented thermal disinfection cycles, chemical injection logging, and PM-ready sensor calibration. HLAC compliance itself is an operational designation that depends on your specific cycles, chemistry, layout, and documentation — not just the equipment. We help our healthcare customers configure cycles and PM programs to support HLAC accreditation. HLAC accreditation is voluntary; many hospital systems require accreditation or accreditation-equivalent practices from their on-premise and contracted laundries.
We can document the equipment, calibration, PM history, and cycle parameters that support your audit. Auditors look at the operation as a whole — your chemistry program, operator training, layout, and documentation all factor in alongside the equipment. We work alongside your infection control team and chemistry vendor to ensure equipment-side documentation is audit-ready.
Sizing depends on daily linen pounds processed, operating shift structure, and linen mix (heavy bedding vs surgical vs scrubs). A 100-bed hospital typically processes 1,000-1,500 lb/day, which is most efficiently handled by 60-130 lb capacity machines running a single shift. For hospital OPLs serving 50–250 beds we typically specify 60-130 lb hardmount or softmount UniMac washer-extractors paired with matching tumble dryers, sized to process daily linen pounds in a single shift. We do detailed sizing as part of any equipment quote.
Senior living and continuing-care OPLs are typically 30-60 lb stacked or single washer-extractor / dryer pairs sized to resident population and linen turnover. Surgical and barrier-fabric processing usually needs a dedicated washer-extractor with an elevated-temperature thermal cycle and verified chemistry — often a softmount for the high-G extract that supports faster dry times. Multi-facility healthcare networks often standardize the fleet across sites for parts pipeline simplicity and consistent operator training.
Yes. Steam-injected washer-extractors are common in larger hospital OPLs because they provide faster bath heating and consistent thermal disinfection temperatures. We service steam-injected UniMac machines and can advise on steam supply requirements for new installs.
Healthcare laundries are top priority on our emergency dispatch — typically same-day response anywhere in NJ when called before noon, and emergency response across NJ, eastern PA, NYC, and Delaware. Healthcare PM customers get the highest priority dispatch. After-hours calls to (732) 681-0500 route to an on-call dispatcher, and we treat a healthcare laundry shut down — surgical linen, isolation gowns, or barrier fabric processing offline — as an emergency.
