Reasons to Choose a Rubber Washer and Dryer Mat
A rubber mat for washer and dryer use is ideal for several reasons.Anti-Slip Design
Rubber has a natural anti skid property that can help to keep your washer and dryer in place. Rubber’s non-skid surface can effectively grip your subfloor and the feet of your washer and dryer. Using a rubber mat under washing machines and dryers can help to keep those machines in place, so you don’t have to worry about trying to reposition them after use.
Anti Vibration Properties
Rubber offers excellent shock absorption, which makes it a great choice as an anti vibration mat. The shock absorption helps to not only reduce the vibrations that you feel in your home, but can also muffle the noise of your washer and dryer for a quieter operation. Choosing a thick rubber mat can enhance these effects.
Subfloor Protection
Using a rubber mat for washing machine and dryer areas also helps to protect your subfloor. The mat can help to prevent your floor from being scratched or worn by the vibrations of the machines.
Durability
Rubber is a highly durable product. A washing machine rubber mat can last for years and can be a long-term investment in your laundry room.
