No More Detergent?

Last Friday we learned of yet another neat green feature in our house. On top of cool things like solar panels, geothermal heating and cooling, a hot water recovery stack, on-demand water heating, 2" foundation foam, tiles made out of recycled light bulbs, and others, we have a LaundryPure laundry system.

LaundryPure is a small gadget that mounts to the wall behind almost any regular washing machine and eliminates the need for detergent, fabric softeners, bleach, and hot water. Cold water goes to the LaundryPure first and UV light bulbs oxidize it eliminating the need for detergent. Oxygen and peroxides lift dirt and odors away from clothes. Clothes are supposed to become softer, fluffier, and last longer.

More info and a demonstration can be seen here.

I have to admit I'm a bit skeptical but hopeful. I'll post again after I've used it!

  1. Any comments after using laundry Pure for a few months? I am JEM Solar in Neenah on the SMA sight. Looking at the system and wondering how it works.
