<section class="lcb-outer"> <div class="lcb-layout"> <main class="lcb-prose" id="lcb-article-top"> <p>A laundromat in North Cape May runs 22 washing machines and 30 dryers. That&rsquo;s not background context &mdash; that&rsquo;s a load calculation. Hot water has to show up every time, all day, without fail. When the aging heating boiler reached end of life, the owner needed a commercial system sized for the job &mdash; not a residential quick fix.</p> <p>Budd&rsquo;s replaced the existing boiler and indirect storage tank, handled the permit, assisted with the financing application, and identified $750 in available rebates. Here&rsquo;s how the job came together.</p> <figure class="lcb-img-wrap"> <img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/650cd965726009dccb50a827/6a19b859fd1695d20c1706a5_IMG_6868.jpg" alt="The original heating boiler at the North Cape May laundromat before removal"> <figcaption>The original boiler before removal. With 22 washers and 30 dryers running daily, a failed system isn&rsquo;t an inconvenience &mdash; it&rsquo;s a business shutdown.</figcaption> </figure> <h2 id="scope-of-work">The Scope of Work</h2> <p>The existing heating hot water boiler was removed and replaced with a Bradford White EBNTZ199NXN3 &mdash; a 200,000 BTU commercial boiler built for exactly this kind of sustained demand. The existing indirect storage tank was replaced alongside it with a Bradford White BM3ST200R5A, sized to keep pace with the load.</p> <div class="lcb-spec-list"> <span class="lcb-spec-list__title">Equipment Installed</span> <ul> <li><strong>Boiler:</strong> Bradford White EBNTZ199NXN3 &mdash; 200,000 BTU commercial heating boiler</li> <li><strong>Indirect tank:</strong> Bradford White BM3ST200R5A &mdash; commercial indirect storage water heater</li> <li><strong>Permit:</strong> Pulled and handled by Budd&rsquo;s</li> <li><strong>Commissioning:</strong> System tested and commissioned on-site before completion</li> </ul> </div> <p>Budd&rsquo;s is an authorized Bradford White contractor &mdash; confirmed through the Bradford White Contractor Finder.

Budd&rsquo;s stayed on top of the process &mdash; consistent follow-up at every step so nothing stalled and the owner didn&rsquo;t have to chase anyone down. A commercial equipment replacement is already a significant undertaking. The financing process shouldn&rsquo;t add to it.</p> <h3>$750 in Rebates</h3> <p>Budd&rsquo;s identified a $750 rebate available on the new equipment and handled the application. The customer kept $750 that might have gone unclaimed if nobody looked for it.</p> <div class="lcb-callout"> <p>Rebates exist and they often go uncaptured &mdash; either because the contractor doesn&rsquo;t know to look or because the paperwork gets left to the customer to figure out on their own.
