Our Ozone Laundry System
Don’t just wash your laundry, disinfect and sanitize them!
This system injects ozone into the cold water to disinfect and sanitize your laundry during the rinse cycle. Additionally, our machines also benefit from disinfecting and sanitizing during every wash.
What is Ozone?
Ozone is a molecule that occurs naturally. It is created when oxygen interacts with sunlight or electricity. It’s what you smell in the air after a thunder storm.
Ozone acts as a natural sanitizer. It is extremely effective against germs that cause illness and is considered the strongest reproducible sanitizer known to man. Ozone is frequently used in the food processing industry to disinfect and kill bacteria and the technology is now available to laundromats specifically to help clean and disinfect clothing.
How Does It Work?
Explaining ozone is a little complicated, but the simplified version is this:
Because heat breaks down ozone molecules, the Ozone Laundry System is connected to the cold water line. When a washer calls for cold water, the ozone generator kicks on and injects ozone into the water. We have a visual display in the customer area, when it lights up blue and the “fish” start to swim, the system is working.
The Ozone Laundry System creates an electrical charge that interacts with the oxygen in the air to form ozone molecules. The molecules dissolve into the wash water and rapidly oxidize organic materials which purifies the water and reduces odors. As a result, your clothes are cleaner, smell fresher and feel softer.
