What is an Ozone System?

In the commercial laundry world, businesses are always looking for more efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly solutions. For companies in Alberta and beyond, one solution that ticks all these boxes is the ozone laundry system.

This advanced technology cleans and disinfects laundry more effectively than traditional methods, offering significant energy and water savings. Let’s explore ozone systems, why they’re ideal for commercial laundries, and how Coronet Equipment’s range of ozone systems can help you choose the best business washer.

Understanding Ozone Laundry Systems

An ozone laundry system is specialized equipment that injects ozone (O3), a naturally occurring molecule, into the water used for washing clothes. Ozone is a powerful oxidizer that breaks down organic matter, including bacteria and viruses, making it an excellent solution for businesses requiring high cleanliness levels and disinfection in their laundry processes.

Unlike traditional commercial clothes washers that rely heavily on hot water and chemicals to clean laundry, ozone systems use cold water and require fewer chemicals. This reduces energy consumption and lowers the environmental impact, making ozone systems a sustainable choice for businesses in the laundry industry.

Why Ozone Systems are Ideal for Commercial Laundries

One of the most significant advantages of ozone laundry systems is their ability to deliver superior cleaning and sanitization while saving both water and energy. Here’s a deeper look at why they are becoming a preferred choice for commercial laundries:

Energy Efficiency
Ozone systems are designed to work effectively with cold water, eliminating the need for heating large amounts of water for each laundry cycle. This can result in up to 85% of energy savings compared to traditional laundry solutions. This is a major benefit for businesses looking to reduce their utility bills while maintaining high standards of cleanliness. Additionally, the reduced use of chemicals means less wear and tear on fabrics, extending the lifespan of linens, towels, and other textiles.

Sanitization Power:
Ozone is an incredibly effective disinfectant, killing up to 99.99% of bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. This makes it ideal for businesses that require a high level of hygiene, such as healthcare facilities, gyms, hotels, and sports teams. The ozone system breaks down organic matter during the wash, providing a cleaner result than traditional washers that rely on hot water and detergents alone.

Key Considerations When Choosing the Best Business Washer
