The ozone-filled water is then transferred to the washer on demand with a transfer pump. At the end of the wash process, the water drains to the sewer. As in the closed-loop system, similar additives are placed in the washer, as needed, particularly in heavy soil situations. Conclusion Open and closed-loop ozone washing systems are now in place and processing linen on a daily basis in hotels, prisons, commercial laundries and nursing homes in eight states. More than 40 million pounds of textile have been washed with the systems.

While there is certainly a cost associated with implementing ozone washing systems, in most cases, the return on capital investment can be completed in 15 to 30 months, wholly derived from a combination of savings. In these days of mounting health care costs, the health care administrator needs to look to innovative technologies that reduce overhead while improving quality of service. Ozone washing provides a financially attractive and proven alternative to conventional linen processing while preserving the environment. However, some states regulate long-term care facilities wash water temperature and time requirements. Please Notify Us if you experience any trouble throughout our website.
