[irishwashguy]

I was googling and found this webside. One way they say to reduce your carbon foodprint.I personally Love to Boilwash my whites. Has anyone had some expierience with Nutek or knows all about the ins and outs of it. Should this be something we all have, or all should avoid?

Nothing NEW at all

They and many other have tried to get a foot hold in the hotel and hospital laundry for 8 or 10 years now.. Some did buy it. it worked for a short time and gives and causes untold of problems.. Dont know of any one that has had one in use for more than a year with anything GOOD to say about it.A lot of the mfgs. are pushing it on the new washers just a sign of the times.. Requires much higher water levels and a lot of maintaince almost need a full time maint. man.. (but if hes cute enough not a thing wrong with that)

I remember seeing articles in Laundry Today about the wonders of Ozone washing... a few years ago... but not much since. The article was a bit puzzling because it spoke of treating the post-rinse water... I guess if you're going to re-use it, ok, but who wants to re-use rinse water in the first place?

I also recall seeing a counter-top ozonated water generator at Costco about five or six years ago. It was pricey - about $150 - but it touted how ozonated water could kill all germs in a few seconds while a chlorine bleach solution would take 15 minutes to an hour to do the same. That product also had a short appearance in the stores - haven't seen it since.

That is what it looked like to me, it seemed like something

Since everyone is already using it, why shouldn't everyone else. It sounds like there is a catch, which I am really not that supprised.
