Latest News...

In 2020 and 2021 Soap Opera Laundromats began transitioning all four laundromats to the new San-O3-Wash System.

The San-O3-Wash System is an innovative new system that uses a perfect amount of ozone in every wash cycle, giving customers peace of mind, knowing that the washers have been completely sanitized!

Adding ozone to the wash allows the use of lower-temperature water (if desired) in a hot cycle; which will substantially reduce the carbon footprint of the store and reduce the wear on fabrics!
