Cleaner starts early
to beat the heat
Monday, 3 a.m., Carolyn Alley
crawled out of bed, checked the ther-
mometer - 84 degrees F. She decided
not to steam clothes. Alley and her
husband, Hebert, own and operate Su-
perior Cleaners, a dry cleaning shop in
Superior. At noon Monday, it was 94
degrees inside the shop even without
the steam press equipment running.
"One morning earlier this summer,
on a similar day, I started the steam
equipment and it was 100 degrees by 6
a.m.," Alley said. "Hebert and I have
tried to work here when it was over a
100 degrees, but we both felt sick. The
heat drains one's energy."
When the highs started being con-
sistently in the upper 90s, Alley moved
to a summer schedule. She rose early
and opened the shop around 4 a.m.,
shut down steam equipment around
noon and on the hottest days closed
shop in the afternoon. She commonly
works with steam, pressing garments
for customers with temperatures in the
mid to upper 90s in the pressing area.
"I talked with a solvent delivery
man earlier this week and he said most
cleaners are closing in the afternoon
because of the summer heat.
"People come in and say 'Don't
you have air conditioning?'" Alley
continued, "I guess they don't realize
that most dry cleaners do not run air
conditioners. Occasionally they air
condition the part where they wait on
customers, but even in the big cities the
steam pressing areas are not air condi-
tioned.
"Air conditioning the customer ser-
vice part of our shop would only in-
crease our labor costs, because I'd not
be able to see the front counter as I
work."
Summer is generally an intensive
work season for a dry cleaning facility:
winter clothing, school uniforms and
wedding apparel must be cleaned.
"The work has slowed with the sum-
mer. Lots of older folks aren't getting
out as much because of the heat so I've
been able to keep up." Alley said.
Alleys have chosen not to air condi-
tion their home.
"We are able to sleep with wet
linens covering us and fans. It is too
much of an adjustment to live in air
conditioning and work in the heat," she
concluded.
