Detergentless Laundry Systems from RainSoft of NE Iowa
RainSoft of NE Iowa offers the CleanStart Laundry System, which harnesses ozone (O3) oxidation technology to help cold water clean more effectively. The system connects directly to your washing machine and introduces controlled ozone into the water supply during each cycle. This adds cleaning power to cold water without relying on hot water or as much detergent.
After it does its job, ozone naturally converts back to oxygen, leaving no chemical residue in your clothing, washing machine, or drain water. The result is a cold-water laundry process that cleans effectively without adding another chemical to the wash.
For homeowners comparing ozone laundry systems or looking for a better way to wash in cold water, this is what makes CleanStart different. The ozone is generated during each cycle, providing consistent treatment every time you run the washer.
Benefits of the CleanStart Laundry System
Some laundry problems that seem like appliance or detergent issues can actually be related to water quality. Hard water minerals can interfere with detergent performance, leave residue behind, and make it harder to get the results you expect from each load.
CleanStart helps address:
Detergent Buildup: Ozone-treated water lets you use less detergent, helping reduce residue left in clothing and washing machine components
Chemical Irritation: Using less detergent means less chemical residue against your skin, which can be helpful for users with sensitive skin
Color Fading and Fabric Wear: Washing in cold water is gentler on fabrics than repeated hot-water cycles, helping clothing retain its color and condition longer
Cold-Cycle Performance: Ozone adds cleaning power to cold water, helping tackle odors and everyday soils without relying as heavily on heat or detergent
CleanStart works with top-load, front-load, and high-efficiency washing machines, so you don't need to replace your existing washer or make major plumbing changes.
How the CleanStart Laundry System Can Help You Save Money
CleanStart laundry systems use less electricity than a 40-watt light bulb. Because it lets you wash in cold water and use less detergent, it can also lower some of the ongoing costs of doing laundry. A typical household using CleanStart may reduce detergent use by 60 to 80 percent.
RainSoft of NE Iowa also offers flexible financing options, including instant approvals and no-money-down options for qualified customers, so you don't necessarily need to pay the full cost upfront.
Commercial-Grade Technology for Northeast Iowa Homes
Ozone laundry technology is used in commercial environments where large amounts of laundry are washed every day. Hospitality brands such as Hilton and Marriott have used ozone-based laundry systems to reduce reliance on hot water and traditional laundry chemicals.
CleanStart brings that same basic approach into the home. Ozone is generated as you wash and converts back to oxygen afterward, so there are no added chemical residues left behind. You get the benefits of ozone-based cleaning without changing the way you normally load and run your washing machine.

Our Testimonials
We live a considerable distance away from the city where Rain Soft is located but have never had any problems with the system itself. We were proud to recommend it to our son when he brought the place from us. He has no problems as of this date. Thank you for your service!
Rainsoft is a great product that comes with great service. We feel it was an investment, but we feel it was worth it. We have the Ultrefiner Drinking Water System that we use for all of of water bottles on the go - they stay clean - no yellow or pink film…. The Water Conditioning System is efficient and we used about 6 bags of salt in the last year - active family of 2 with family stopping in. Would highly recommend Rainsoft.
We have been with Rain soft since 1999. We recently purchased a new softener and decided to stay with Rain soft because of their excellent service and quality of product. We have had the reverse osmosis system since the beginning and have also added the chlorine removal tank. We enjoy having the quality water that our system provides us with. Thanks to rain soft. Brent and Carla Whitlock.
Will make this short. Had some problem with our water softener. Had water on the floor. It would make all kinds of noise and the our water softness was inconsistent. Lucas came and took the time to fix it right! Our water softener has never worked this well. Be sure to let Lucas know much we appreciated his work!!
RainSoft has delivered excellent service and products since we installed a whole house water system more than 20 years ago. We recently replaced our refrigerator and RainSoft came the next day to connect the new water line for our ice/water. Prompt and friendly service!
Blake was awesome and the warranty on the products is very good. Blake took the time to replace all potential problem parts in the system at no additional charge. Living in the country with well water is hard on the system but I don’t know what I would do without it. Blake also had some extra bags of salt on hand to save us a trip. Very professional and obviously took pride in doing things right!
