What is Ozone?
Ozone, or “active oxygen”, is a gas which is composed of three oxygen atoms (O3). In a laundromat environment, Ozone helps to destroy bacteria, viruses, mildew, mold, and also helps to eliminate contaminates like fungus, spores and oil. This ultimately leaves your laundry items cleaner and clearer.
The Ozone is injected into the water used to fill the washer at a level high enough to meet set government sanitizing standards, so you can be sure that it’s a safe and effective sanitizing method.
Is Ozone Green?
Absolutely. Ozone occurs naturally in the atmosphere and reacts so quickly with contaminates that it converts within minutes or less back to oxygen. In the case of Ozone molecules that break free, they also convert quickly to oxygen and don’t reach the atmosphere. Ozone removes the need for hot water, which in turn saves on electricity.
