Make More and Spend Less – Planet Fitness and High Sierra

Make More and Spend Less - Planet Fitness

Planet Fitness chose High Sierra Showerheads as their partner to equip their locker room shower heads across the USA. Our products are helping the company and its franchisees “make more and spend less.”

Yes, it’s that Planet Fitness: one of the USA’s largest and fastest-growing fitness center chains. This chain now has over 2,100 club locations globally and 15 million members, “more than any other fitness brand.” They’ve chosen High Sierra’s 1.5 gallons per minute (gpm) low-flow shower heads for retrofitting existing locations, plus installations at newly-opened locations. (As of this writing, several hundred of their clubs already feature High Sierra’s products, a number that’s been growing rapidly.)

In American Builders Quarterly, Russ Kletke outlines how Planet Fitness has turned itself into a sustainability powerhouse by going green. Part of their business strategy is taking over old retail stores and turning them into green-friendly fitness centers. Hence, they’ve employed “the best-available technologies in heating and cooling, lighting, and water use that takes these old stores from the 20th to the 21st century”.

One of Planet Fitness’s key goals is to help their franchisees “make more and spend less money.” Their managers found “sustainability measures, particularly those that involve efficient heating, lighting, and water use, are consistent with customer satisfaction and profitability.”

At High Sierra, we’re gratified to help Planet Fitness and their franchisees meet their sustainability and money-savings goals!

How to Make More and Spend Less in Your Commercial Business

Like Planet Fitness, other leading enterprises chose High Sierra’s shower heads as their best option for retrofit and construction projects. By doing so, they realized significant savings not only on water and energy use, but also on routine maintenance. They, too, “make more and spend less.”

Four reasons why:

  1. High Sierra’s 1.25 and 1.5 gpm models save the absolute maximum amount of water and water heating energy possible, while still making a drenching, luxurious spray of large, heavy, high-energy droplets. These flow rates save 50% and 40% on water and water-heating energy, respectively, over most shower heads in service in the USA today. That saves you the largest possible amount of money from the start. Better yet, you won’t need to swap them out later due to changing sustainability requirements or regulations. Also, their return on investment (ROI) is extraordinary. In some commercial building scenarios, they can entirely pay for themselves within just months.
  2. They’re made from sturdy all-metal components for long field life. (Many competing models are instead made mostly from breakable plastics.) High Sierra’s product durability significantly reduces ongoing maintenance and replacement costs.
  3. They won’t clog up over time due to hard water minerals. That’s because of their globally unique nozzle design, with a straight-through water path. Plus, it has larger openings at both water entrance and exit than any other shower head. This saves you maintenance time and costs by no longer having to clean or replace clogging shower heads.
  4. They’ve been reviewed as Best Picks by CNET, Wirecutter (a New York Times company), Popular Science, CNN Underscored, Good Housekeeping, and many other reviewers. Your customers, residents, and/or employees will find their spay extremely satisfying. And your facilities managers and maintenance professionals will get compliments, rather than complaints.
