"You reduce the use of water because of the ozone, and UV takes care of the bacterial and virals," said Tim Clancy, business development manager at Omni Solutions.

These washing machines are different because they can perform to specs that ones at home can't reach. Dillon said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say the coronavirus will die at 160 degrees, but home washing machines can only get up to 120 degrees.

Dillon said the technology works like bleach — only more powerful. And it won't have any negative effects on your clothes.

Customers at Arcade Laundromat won't notice a difference in pricing, Dillon said. The business has also rearranged its tables so customers can maintain a safe distance of 6 feet apart.

Clancy said the technology used at Arcade could one day be available for home washing machines, but not for several more years.
