A commercial washer running 10 or 12 cycles a day takes on stress a laundromat machine never sees. That workload is exactly why the UniMac washer warranty deserves a close look before you sign a purchase order. Hotels, nursing homes, correctional facilities, and fire departments run these machines hard, every day. Our team at RJ Kool has sold and serviced this equipment long enough to know what holds up, what wears out, and what coverage actually protects your investment.
What the Standard UniMac Washer Warranty Covers
UniMac is the robust line we sell to operations that cannot afford downtime. The components reflect that. Water valves are brass instead of plastic, and the build quality is engineered for heavy daily use.
Three-Year Parts Coverage
On our UniMac and UW line, we offer a standard three-year parts warranty. That covers the components most likely to see wear in the first few years of hard service.
Ten-Year Bearing Coverage
Bearings carry a 10-year warranty. Bearings are the expensive failure point on any commercial washer, so a decade of coverage says a great deal about how these machines are built.
Key Takeaway: Standard coverage on a UniMac washer includes three years on parts and 10 years on bearings, which is strong protection for equipment cycling 8 to 12 times per day.
The Five-Year Bumper-To-Bumper Upgrade
For very little additional cost, we can extend that coverage to a five-year bumper-to-bumper parts warranty. A large share of our customers take it.
Why Our Customers Extend the UniMac Washer Warranty
The upgrade is time-based, not hour-based. Facilities running machines 18 or 20 hours a day benefit most from that distinction, because the clock does not penalize them for volume.
A Low-Cost Insurance Policy
Paying out of pocket for major parts in year four or five gets expensive fast. The extended plan also gives you a cushion if something outside normal operation happens, such as an electrical strike.

Which Parts We Actually Replace
Experience with real service calls tells you more than a spec sheet. Here is what we see in the field.
Water Valves and Drain Valves
- Water valves wear from hard water and calcification over time. The brass housings hold up well, though the internal guts need replacement now and then.
- Drain valves fail because of what ends up inside them. We have pulled knives, forks, false teeth, pens, safety pins, and clothing out of drain valves that nobody checked for before loading.
Door Locks and Dryer Components
Door lock issues show up occasionally, and UniMac has significantly beefed up that design. On the dryer side, igniters, burners, and ignition wires behave more like consumables and wear out with use.
Pro Tip: Train your staff to check pockets before loading. Foreign objects in the drain valve are one of the most preventable service calls we run.
How Maintenance Protects Your Investment
Coverage is valuable, and clean equipment keeps you from needing it in the first place.
Keep Lint Out of the System
Lint buildup traps heat and causes major components to fail early. Regular cleaning keeps motors out of the repair conversation entirely.
Stay Ahead of Small Leaks
Consistent upkeep makes a real difference in preventing water leaks before they reach parts that cost real money.
