Cardio Equipment

Duty cycle and warranty. Home machines are rated for a few hours of use per week. Commercial machines are built for continuous use, with heavier frames, better bearings, and stronger motors where a motor exists. Putting a home-rated machine on a paying floor usually voids the warranty and shortens the life of the machine considerably.

It depends on your peak-hour headcount, not your total membership. A common starting point for a boutique floor is two to three treadmills, two bikes, and two rowers, then adding based on what actually queues. Call 866-861-6317 and we will size it against your room and your class schedule rather than a generic ratio.

Yes. Home buyers use Affirm at checkout, with rates from 0% to 36% APR based on credit. Gyms, studios, and clinics finance the whole floor on one application through Brickhouse Capital, Reliant Capital, Acorn Finance, or KWIPPED. Financing the floor as one purchase beats financing machine by machine, because you get a better rate on a bigger number and only one hard inquiry. Financed equipment may also qualify for a Section 179 deduction. Confirm with your accountant.

We handle freight nationwide and support installation on commercial orders. Cardio equipment ships by freight, not parcel, and most machines need liftgate or dock delivery. Tell us the site conditions before the order goes in so the delivery method is right the first time.

Curved treadmills, air bikes, and rope pulling machines are self-powered. They run on user effort alone. That means no electrical run and no restriction on where they sit on the floor, which matters on a build-out with limited circuits.

Wall and rack mounted rope pulling machines take almost no floor space and start well below the cost of a treadmill. After that, upright bikes and rowers are the most space-efficient. Rowers can be stood on end for storage. Treadmills, ellipticals, and climbers all need real footprint and, for climbers, real ceiling height.
