How it works

OxyCasa produces TRI-ACTIVE Oxygen and Plasma and mixes them with incoming water together with silver nanoparticles, removing dirt, bacteria and fungi. A UV probe then sterilises and strengthens the oxidising action against organic molecules — a main cause of stains and bad odours.

The principle

Oxygen does what detergents used to do

OxyCasa is installed upstream of the washing machine and releases TRI-ACTIVE Oxygen directly into the water hose. You only decide the amount according to the load. No modification to the appliance, and negligible consumption: it is rated class A+++.

Stage 01

Active oxygen

Active oxygen is a natural gas that forms in the atmosphere in the presence of strong electric charges — in the mountains, or after a thunderstorm. Its disinfecting power exceeds that of chlorine by about 52%, with a strong oxidising effect on metals.

It decomposes in water to form oxygen and monoatomic oxygen, which reacts quickly with the dirt trapped between tissue fibres. Penetrating the cell membrane, it changes the shape of the cell until its death. It leaves no residue, no toxins and no odours, and is extremely effective against viruses, bacteria, fungi, moulds and microbes.

Stage 02

Infrared

The infrared is activated by the active oxygen generated by OxyWash, producing powerful infrared rays that break the hydrogen combinations of water molecules into small groups.

These small groups are activated and increase molecular movement: the penetration force and the washing power of the water both increase.

Stage 03

Negative ions

The negative ions generated weaken the surface and the connection between tissues, causing an easy removal of dirt and favouring the action of TRI-ACTIVE Oxygen.

This is precisely the action normally carried out by the surfactants contained in conventional detergent. They also change the pH level in an alkaline way — another job usually done by chemical detergents.

Stage 04

Chlorine neutralisation

Inside, the mechanism is fitted with a chlorine neutralising system that removes the chloride compound from the water and its deposit on clothes.

The side effect is just as useful: it loosens the surface tension of the water and further increases its cleaning force.

Stage 05 — the result

TRI-ACTIVE Oxygen

Active oxygen, supported by the power of hydrogen and by the activating properties of the infrared system, generates the effect we call TRI-ACTIVE Oxygen.

Stage 06

UV-C rays

Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) is a sterilisation method that uses ultraviolet light at the UV-C wavelength.

It alters the DNA of micro-organisms — bacteria, viruses, moulds, algae — inactivating them and preventing their reproduction.

Light radiation

No chemical substance circulates inside the washing machine: only natural processes of oxidation and bactericidal sterilisation.

What you get

Four effects, one device

Cold water

Only cold water saves you more energy. 90% of a washing machine's consumption goes into heating water.

Oxygen

Delivers water enriched with TRI-ACTIVE Oxygen and treated with Plasma and negative ions.

Cleaning

Washes and disinfects garments without detergents, softeners or sanitising additives.

Sterilisation

A UV-C probe sterilises and strengthens the oxidising action against organic molecules.
