Key Advantages of the Woodway EcoMill electronic treadmills

  1. EcoMill treadmills – are all ecologically friendly as they all consume 0% in mains power Note - all motorized treadmills are a major part of any gyms power bill cost

  2. EcoMill treadmills require no electrical wiring connections to any power points. This also means no more electricians call out costs re tripped out treadmill switch circuit breakers, motor repairs etc.

  3. EcoMill treadmills all come with 100% user powered alternator that fully recharges the battery from the energy the EcoMill user provides

  4. EcoMill treadmills have no running belts to replace – the EcoMill slat belt running deck – designed to last for over 320,000 Km / unit - no other treadmill running deck can do this!

  5. EcoMill treadmills pay for themselves over 3 – 4 years (based just the mains power cost savings that all the powered treadmills cost all commercial fitness centres)

  6. EcoMill treadmills all come with a Cardio Theater ® connection on the back of the Controller Panel (CSAFE RJ45 connector.) Powered by the EcoMill users’ energy! Also EcoMill treadmills all come with a USB Port so users can connect their own IPod or re-charge their mobile phone during their EcoMill workout - using their own workout energy too!

  7. EcoMill treadmills all have a foot print size of 1.7 Metres x 0.85 Metres which is at least 1/3rd less than other commercial treadmills = 1/3rd saving on expensive treadmill rental space area required

  8. EcoMill treadmills are portable & can be tipped up & moved anywhere on their rollers to any position in any gym as no mains power connection is required

  9. EcoMill treadmills (unlike all other motor driven treadmills,) are all exempt from Portable Appliance Tag testing so more cost savings here too!

Calculate Your Running cost and Greenhouse gas emission savings
   
Step 1: Enter the number treadmills you are currently running or intend to replace.  
Step 2: Enter the Continuous rating horse power (CRHP) of your treadmills.  
      You will find this in your instruction manual & on each treadmills’  Serial No. & Model ID plate.  
      All commercial treadmills are either 3HP (2.2kW) 4HP (3kW) or 5 HP (3.7kW).  
      Mostly 4 or 5 HP Electric Motors  
Step 3: Enter the Cost per kW/h as stated on your last power bill.  
Step 4: Click on the Update Button.
