MRL ELEVATORS: THE ECO-FRIENDLY OPTION

The compact design of Federal Elevator’s machine room-less home elevator requires less energy to operate and the variable-frequency drive that powers the motor and gives a smooth ride also reduces electricity consumption. MRL elevators don’t rely on hydraulics to power the elevator system, so there’s no oil required.
