Chute

Our Linen Chutes are fully factory fabricated with all joints welded or lock seamed. There is one slip joint per floor. All chutes have a flush interior and are assembled without bolts, rivets or clips protruding into the chute opening. Chutes are equipped with chute support clips pre-positioned at the factory to insure proper chute alignment. The adjustable intake door and frame are securely fastened to the intake throat. If required, off-sets will be reinforced and supported in impact areas.
