All processes are not created equal! Just because you've made Ozone, doesn't mean you'll get enough into the water and in contact with your linens to do any good. So ... how do you get Ozone into your water?

What is Ozone?
Ozone is oxygen (O2) with an extra atom of oxygen attached, thus forming O3. Ozone is formed naturally during a lightning storm. The creation of ozone is nature’s way of purifying the atmosphere, and is what gives clothesline dried linen that ‘‘fresh air’’ smell.
Does Ozone Kill Bugs?
Ozone is an extremely effective sanitizing and disinfecting agent. In fact, ozone kills bacteria faster than chlorine.
How Does Ozone Work?
Ozone carries an electrical and chemical charge in the washing solution, which actually starts to dissolve soil on contact. This process activates the chemicals in cold water instead of using hot water at 140-160 degrees. Sanitizing of your linen is equal to standard laundry procedures.

Ozone Laundry Systems Our ozone washing machines give you several advantages over standard laundry practices. Ozone washing increases textile life, reduces natural gas and energy costs, faster fill rates, shorter wash cycles and even shorter drying times. Whiter, softer, sanitized, fresh smelling and longer lasting linens and clothes results in huge savings!
TEXTILE STRENGTH
Did you know that when chlorine bleach and extremely hot water are mixed together, a chemical reaction occurs that actually damages the fibers of textile? With ozone, this chemical reaction is eliminated.
Our customers have reported that their textile life has increased by 30% or more.
MAJOR REDUCTION IN NATURAL GAS COST
Approximately half the natural gas consumption used in the laundry is for heating water. The other half is used in drying the linen. Ozone Laundry Systems can eliminate 90% or more of your hot water usage. Some facilities have turned their hot water heaters off! An average 100 bed nursing home could save a minimum of $1,200 per month on their utility bills.
FASTER FILL RATES
Ozone Laundry Systems utilize an extra large ozone-resistant water valve to fill your washers. These valves work separately from your existing fill valves, and in most cases will fill your washers in half the normal fill time. This saves you time, which in turn saves you money!
SHORTER WASH CYCLES
Under normal laundry conditions, the ‘‘cleaning window’’ of a wash cycle is only during the detergent and bleach steps. This cleaning window is usually 1/3 of the total wash cycle time. With Ozone Laundry Systems, the entire wash cycle is the cleaning window. When your washer fills with water, in most cases it is cold-ozonated water. This means that every time your washer fills (most wash cycles fill at least 5 times), it is getting a fresh dose of ozonated water. This in effect makes the ‘‘cleaning window’’ the entire cycle. By lengthening the cleaning window, we are able to shorten the entire cycle by as much as 20%.
What does this do for you? 20% faster wash cycles mean the possibility of running your laundry 20% fewer hours per day, per week, per year!
SHORTER DRYING TIMES
Ozone actually penetrates the fibers of your linen. This is evident in the thicker, fluffier towels that are dried after being ozonated. The ozone helps to release moisture in the dryers or on a flatwork ironer, thus creating much faster drying times as well. In most cases, drying time has decreased by 20%. This decrease also reduces gas consumption in the dryers by up to 20%.
