A
irsled, Inc., the first company to develop and introduce appliance
movement solutions based on low-pressure air film technology, is
making another critical leap forward with its "air dolly" systems. Since
their introduction in 1982, all Airsled appliance movers were controlled by a
toggle ON/OFF switch. As appliances started getting installed in tighter cavities
with limited overhead clearance, the lifting action of Airsled systems had the
potential to wedge these appliances in place. The potential risk of damage to
overhead cabinets and countertops also increased. Airsled is solving this
problem by introducing a Variable Speed option for all its systems.
Unlike a toggle ON/OFF switch which activates an Airsled system,
immediately leading to an appliance being lifted up to 2" off the ground, systems
with the Variable Speed option are controlled by a dial that the end-user turns to
regulate air flow into the air beams. This allows the end-user to control both the
speed and height of air beam inflation, making Airsled systems, already famous
for their load movement and flooring protection capabilities, even safer and
easier to use in situations with tight overhead clearance. The best way to
illustrate this superior performance, which no other Airsled competitor offers, is
to view a short video on Airsled's YouTube channel or the company's website.
"Airsled's mission remains to be the global leader in this solution space," said
Stan Kanevsky, Airsled President & CEO. "We listened to our customers and
used that feedback to drive our R&D which led to the development and
introduction of a new spacer kit for appliances on legs, a new, compact Light
Duty Appliance Mover model rated to lift 450 lbs., and now most significantly,
the introduction of Variable Speed performance which addresses a potential
challenge our customers face when using Airsled systems."
