That's completely normal. Bubbles come from detergent—not from the cleaning process itself. Since the Oxileaf cleans without traditional detergents, you won't see suds even though your laundry is being washed.
Can I use warm or hot water?
The Oxileaf is designed to operate with your washer's cold-water supply. For best results and maximum energy savings, use cold-water wash cycles whenever possible.
Is ozone left on my clothes after washing?
No. The Oxileaf uses O₃ (ozone) during the wash process. Ozone naturally breaks back down into oxygen after use and does not leave detergent residue behind on your laundry.
My unit won't turn on.
First, check these common items:
Make sure the unit is plugged into a working outlet.
Verify the outlet has power.
Confirm the power button is turned on.
Make sure the display is illuminated.
Start a wash cycle using cold water to verify operation.
If the unit still does not power on, please contact Customer Support with your purchase information for warranty assistance.
Is the Oxileaf safe for my washing machine?
Yes. The Oxileaf is designed for residential washing machines and installs between the cold-water supply and the washer. It works with:
Top-load washers
Front-load washers
High-Efficiency (HE) washers
Most municipal and well-water systems
Can I still use bleach, fabric softener, or laundry additives?
Yes. The Oxileaf is designed to reduce or eliminate the need for these products, but you can still use them if desired. Many customers find they no longer need fabric softener after switching.
My towels still feel stiff.
This is usually caused by detergent and fabric softener residue that has built up over months or years. As that residue is gradually removed, many customers notice towels becoming softer after several wash cycles.
Can I wash heavily soiled work clothes or greasy items?
Yes, but heavily soiled clothing may benefit from pre-treating stains or using a small amount of detergent. The Oxileaf is designed for everyday laundry, while extremely dirty loads sometimes require additional stain treatment.
It doesn't seem like the unit is doing anything. How do I know it's working?
The Oxileaf only operates when your washing machine is drawing cold water. During the fill cycle, verify that:
The unit has power.
It is plugged into a working outlet.
Your washer is filling with cold water.
The cold-water hose is connected through the Oxileaf.
Because the cleaning happens inside the water, there isn't always an obvious visual indication during operation.
Can I still use detergent if I want to?
Yes. While the Oxileaf is designed to greatly reduce or eliminate the need for detergent, you're always free to use detergent if you prefer. Many customers use none for everyday laundry and only add a small amount for heavily soiled items.
My clothes don't seem cleaner after the first wash.
Many customers notice an improvement immediately, but clothing that has years of detergent and fabric softener buildup may require several wash cycles before the residue is removed. Most users report the biggest difference after about 3–5 washes.
My clothes don't smell like detergent anymore. Is something wrong?
No. This is actually one of the biggest differences you'll notice. The Oxileaf Laundry Wash System cleans without adding perfumes or fragrances, so your laundry will smell naturally fresh instead of having a strong scented-detergent smell.
