Benefits of Ozone
The staff at Great Wolf Lodge noticed a huge difference
after installing the EnvirO3matic® Advanced Laundry
Oxidation System. Terry Cook, Laundry Manager, stated
that “Not only did management see a reduction in hot
water, utility and chemical consumption, we also noticed
an increase in production as we can now wash over 100
loads a day with the ozone system.”
The EnvirO3matic® system automatically injects ozone
directly into the wash wheel throughout the wash cycle.
Ozone is a natural disinfectant enhancing the performance
of chemicals during the wash cycle, allowing the towels

2. and linens to be washed in cold water. This process
significantly reduces energy costs by cutting hot water
usage. With cold water and ozone infused into the wash
cycle, the standard wash temperature at Great Wolf Lodge
is now a cool 68 degrees from a very hot 140 degrees. The
drop in temperature allows staff to remove the towels
and linens immediately after the wash cycle and put them
directly into the dryer creating faster throughput. Fibres
are lifted during ozone cleaning, producing a softer, fluffier
feel to towels and linens and reducing dry times.
Introducing ozone at Great Wolf Lodge reduced the wash
time by 5 minutes and the dry cycle by 10 minutes. Best
of all, the process of the ozone system extends the life of
linens and disinfects 1.5 times faster than chlorine but,
unlike chlorine, leaves no harmful or toxic by-products
behind.
“Not only did “Many guests have called and asked what are we washing
our linens with as they smell fresh and clean,” says Terry.

Work Environment
An added bonus for Great Wolf Lodge is the enhanced work
environment for its staff. “Our employees are extremely
satisfied with the ozone system. Guests and employees
from other departments are noticing the fresher air but
it’s the 20 degree drop in the laundry room temperature
that has changed the atmosphere, says Terry. The room
is cooler as we are using much less hot water and have
decreased drying time. There used to be a wall of heat and
humidity as we walked towards the laundry room.”
