Frequently Asked
MLS System Questions
Q. Does the MLS
replace traditional laundry additives like bleach and pretreat sprays
for stains?
A. The MLS System is a laundry
detergent alternative only. Just like when using laundry
detergent, separate products used for other functions must be used
separately, like spot stain treatments, and whitening bleach products.
These are separate from the MLS just as they are separate
from detergent.
Q. Does the MLS kill bacteria, etc. on the clothes?
A. Again, the MLS is a
laundry detergent alternative only. Laundry detergent is not used to
kill microorganisms, and neither is the Laundry System, but the cleaning
process itself washes away most bacteria. However, hot water will kill
most microorganisms in the water, and a little bleach will do the same
(although bleach works best at high temperatures).
An
extremely effective natural alternative: Numerous studies show that
a straight 5 percent solution of vinegar—such as you can buy in the
supermarket—kills 99% of bacteria, 82% of mold, and 80% of germs
(viruses).
Q. Can I use bleach and other chemicals with the
laundry system if I want to?
A. Yes. Honestly, nothing whitens like chlorine
bleach, but there are few chemicals that are more toxic for the
environment and health. Bleach is very harsh and damaging to you
clothes as well. That said, if you don’t mind the tradeoffs, you can
still use diluted bleach with the MLS if you
choose. A great alternative to chlorine bleach is oxygen bleach (like
Oxyclean® and similar products). Borax is also an excellent natural
laundry booster. Some laundry system owners add baking soda or white
vinegar to their loads.
Q. What about smell? Will my clothes have a
nice, perfumey scent with the MLS?
A. There is no scent added when using the
MLS. The truth is, clean clothes smell like nothing. They
don't smell like perfume. And most people significantly overkill with
these scents. They use detergents, spot removers and bleach with
perfumes in their washing machine, then they use fabric softeners and/or
dryer sheets in the dryer which add even more perfumes. Then they wash
their bodies with scented soaps and shampoos, and towel off with their
scented towel (after they slept all night in perfumed sheets and
pillowcases). Then after all of that, they apply perfumed deodorant and
spray on their favorite cologne. This is simply too many chemicals on
the body, and sometimes the body will rebel with rashes, respiratory
issues or illness.
If you absolutely
cannot live without a scent on your clothes, then just use one scented
dryer sheet. There is simply no reason to pile all of the other scented
chemicals on your clothes. And you need to know that most of these are
very unhealthy for your skin and respiratory system, so the less you
use, the better off you are. Some of those red eyes, rashes and runny
noses are not because of allergies, but due to the perfume and
petrochemicals left behind in your clothes.
Q. How long will my MLS system last?
A. The MLS was designed and
engineered to give you many years of service, and save you thousands
of dollars on not buying laundry detergents. In the process, you will
be preventing thousands of pounds of chemicals from being dumped into
our water supply and from being imbued in your garments, which may
create a dramatically positive effect on your family’s health if
eliminated.
Q. What is the limited lifetime warranty and risk free trial
all about?
A. Since the MLS may be a new
concept to you, we take all risk out of
trying the product and comparing it to your favorite laundry detergent.
And
once you’ve tried the product and love it, we also guarantee the quality
of the product with the limited lifetime warranty, and still give it to you at a very reasonable price.
Q. What temperature should the water be? Can I
use hot, warm and cold water at my own discretion?
A. Generally speaking, hot water is always the
best temperature for the cleanest clothes whether you are using the
MLS or detergent. Think about when you are washing dishes in
the sink. The cold water will clean stuck on food, but the hot water
will remove the food more quickly and efficiently with less water usage.
It is the same in your washing machine.
However, different garments and materials may require that you use lower
temperatures, and you may continue to do so. We have had many customers
report excellent results using just cold water with the MLS.
For the reason outlined above, we still like to recommend hot water to
users--but you ultimately have the freedom to test using the product in
a variety of ways, and choose whatever option works best for your
personal situation.
Q. What sort of benefits can I expect with the
MLS?
A. Many benefits. Most importantly if you or your
family suffers from detergent related sensitivities like skin problems
and/or respiratory issues, you owe it to your health to switch to our
non-chemical alternative product. From a financial standpoint, you
should be able to save hundreds of dollars a year on detergents, and
even more if you bypass the rinse cycle since you would not need it any
longer (which would also save 20 to 40 gallons of water per cycle, a
significant amount of our natural resources). You will save time, reduce
your effort with your laundry and avoid lugging a 15 lb tub of detergent
from the store every time you buy it. Your wardrobe (which is a
considerable investment) may last a lot longer because of the reduction
of harsh chemicals. It makes your home more “green” and also more child
friendly by reducing the amount of toxins in the home. It may have a
massive impact on the environment by less chemical dumping and reducing
our dependence on foreign petrochemicals (Yes, your detergents are
petrochemicals derived from crude oil).
Q. What does using the MLS mean
for the environment?
A. The most obvious and important fact is that using
the MLS instead of detergents is preventing petrochemicals
from getting dumped into our fresh water supplies, helping to preserve
our most valuable natural resource critical for human survival.
Furthermore, bypassing the rinse cycle can save massive additional water
usage (20-40 gallons of fresh water per load), electricity (derived
mostly from burning coal and oil which are big pollutants), natural gas
(for heating the extra water) and sewage. It also may possibly help reduce the
causes of global warming--since such a massive amount of detergents are
made and used around the world, significant resources (fossil fuels) are
used in its manufacturing and delivery.
Q. Sometime the Laundry System units end up sticking
together after I run a wash cycle. Is this OK or am I doing something
wrong?
A. This is perfectly fine and will not detrimentally
affect their ability to clean. If you want to separate them, you can put
them in different pockets of a par of pants you are washing to keep them
separated.
Q. Do the MLS units have to stick to the
inside of the water drum to work properly?
A. No. There are a variety of washing machines from
front loaders to top loaders, and interior washing drums ranging across
plastic, iron and stainless steel. The Laundry System works in all of
them. The laundry units just need to be submerged and/or in close
proximity to the water for maximum effectiveness.
Q. I have a newer front loading washing machine that
has electronics on it. Can I use the MLS with my
machine?
A. Absolutely. We just recommend that if you have a front
loader, you place the MLS units in a pair of socks or pants
pockets before running the cycle. This eliminates any noise
the force of the horizontal axis may create. And though magnetic force
should not be in direct contact with electronics, the MLS is
used in the water drum and is far enough away to have zero impact on the
electronic controls if used properly. Just do not rest them on the
electronic control panel. Also, the two MLS units combined
weigh just a fraction of one pair of wet jeans (12 ounces compared to 80
ounces respectively). So you need not be
concerned with any significant added weight.
Q. Can the MLS make my clothes clean and
bright like detergents do?
A. That
depends on your definition of “clean” and “bright”. When comparing the
usage of the MLS with laundry detergent, you need to
factor in a few things. First of all, detergents are not soap. They are
chemical surfactant petrochemicals derived directly from crude oil, and
these chemicals are designed to not be completely rinsed out after
washing your clothes. They leave behind what are called “optical
brighteners” which are synthetic chemicals that reflect more light off
the clothing to appear “brighter” to the eye. We do not
believe that adding what are, in effect, chemical mirrors to a garment
makes them cleaner. These synthetic chemicals convert UV
light wavelengths into visible light, which makes laundered clothes
appear whiter (although does not actually affect the cleanliness of the
clothing). They've been found to be toxic to fish and to cause bacterial
mutations. Furthermore, they can cause allergic reactions when exposed to
skin that is later exposed to sunlight.
In fact,
because these chemicals have the possibility of triggering health
problems and may cause environmental distress, we believe leaving them
on the clothing seriously compromises their cleanliness. Most people
aren’t even aware that potentially harmful petrochemicals derived from
crude oil are constantly on their clothes, possibly causing the wearer
skin and respiratory ailments. We define clean as chemical-free,
non-harmful to the wearer and non-toxic to the environment, in addition
to being optically acceptable. But only you, the user and owner of the
product can determine that. We feel there are many people out these just
like us that don’t want to walk around with petrochemicals and optical
brighteners imbued in
their clothes all day long.
Q. What are the health and environmental concerns
of using Optical Brighteners in my wash?
A. Optical brighteners are not effective unless
they remain on the fabric after washing, whereby they are constantly
being breathed in, and touching and absorbing into your skin. Clothes
washed in detergents containing these agents will have a potentially
health threatening chemical residue left behind on the fabric.
Frequently, skin rashes commonly blamed on fragrance and dyes are
actually caused by optical brighteners, so optical brighteners should
not be used by individuals with sensitive skin.
Optical brighteners contain chemicals that can be toxic to fish and
other animal and plant life. Many have also been shown to cause
mutations in bacteria (seventhgeneration.com). In addition, these
chemicals are not readily biodegradable, so pollution remains in waste
water for long periods of time, negatively affecting water quality and
animal and plant life.
The U.S. military cannot use optical brighteners, because these
chemicals may put their lives at further risk.
So in the supermarket, you may wish to
avoid come-ons like, "Brightens colors!
Whitens whites!", because of the concerns of what you are really
getting.
Q. Will the cost of laundry detergents go up as the
cost of crude oil goes up?
A. This would seem to be a certainty. Detergents are
chemical surfactant petrochemicals derived from crude oil. The basic
building blocks for surfactants, with one exception, are all derived
from crude oil. Unless detergent companies choose to cut their profit
margins to keep the cost of detergent down, you will be paying more and
more for your detergent just as you are paying more and more to fuel
your car. As the raw material cost for detergent escalates, so will the
detergent cost to the end users. In
addition to that, their plastic containers (which are made from only 25%
post consumer recycled plastic) are made from petrochemicals, and it
costs more to ship these bulky and heavy bottles because of record-high
fuel prices. These additional costs end up
being paid for by the end user as well.
Q. What is the purpose of the "enzyme spray", is it
for use on stains, etc.?
A. The enzymes are a natural and non-toxic
spot/stain remover like the "Shout" or “Spray’N’Wash” type products
normally used with detergent. But the enzymes are all-natural and
non-toxic. These types of spot remover products are sold separately of
detergents, and only need to be used on tough stains.
Q. If one kit of the Laundry System is good for
a lifetime, why do you offer a Double Pack on your website? Are double
the units better for large loads?
A. You don't need to order more than one kit. One
kit is perfectly sufficient for a home washing machine. The Laundry
System double pack (2 kits) is available simply if you want one for home
and one for travel, or you want to give one as a gift, if you and a
friend want to order together, etc. There is a special 10% discount.
Once people use this product, many people become evangelists telling
others about it. But you only need one kit for yourself.
Q. I'm somewhat skeptical but keeping an open mind
here - partly because I believe the human race
is slowly poisoning itself through it's food and water supply. And I
have grandkids with signs of what I consider allergies and am concerned
about what goes into their bodies and what they are exposed to. Can you
put my mind at ease about trying your product?
A. You
don't HAVE to be skeptical. We offer an unconditional 30-day in home
risk free trial. We have the unimpeachable credibility of two patents on
this technology, and independent laboratory testing on the product
proving it’s effectiveness as well. The Laundry System is truly amazing
and it really, really works. But the best part is that YOU
ultimately decide if you love the product or not. If you aren’t
completely convinced that the Laundry System cleans as good or better
than your favorite detergent in your OWN washing machine, we don’t
deserve to keep your money, and you are entitled to a full product
refund.
We make absolutely sure our customers
have nothing to lose, and we completely take your risk out of the
equation and put it on us. You, the user, are the ultimate arbiter of
what cleaning solutions you are happiest with using in your home, and we
want you to have the option to continue to use our product if it works
better for you, or the freedom to go back to detergent if you so wish
with absolutely no financial loss on your part. Don’t be afraid to try
something that can significantly improve your life.
Q. I just don't get how you can clean my clothes
without soaps. Can you please explain this to me? It just doesn't make
sense.
A. First of all, you need to know that you are
not washing your clothes with soaps, and you probably never have in your
lifetime. Detergents are not soaps. They are, again, petrochemicals
derived from crude oil. Water is the universal solvent. Water is what
ultimately cleans your clothes whether you use laundry detergents, or
the MLS. All these products do is help water to
clean better. We do it on a chemical-free, completely renewable
magnetic basis, while they do it using non-renewable petrochemicals.
Magnetic force is one of the most powerful natural forces on earth. In fact, the
earth itself is like a giant magnet with a north and south pole. It is
an amazing source of natural energy. Even the weak magnets on your
refrigerator defy the force of gravity without batteries or being
plugged into any power source. We are simply harnessing that amazing
force and focusing it in your home washing machine to affect the water.
At an atomic level, everything is affected by magnetics. All you
need to do it try is for yourself and see the results with your own
eyes.
Q. I think I have heard of "laundry balls"
before. Isn't this the same thing?
A. The MLS is completely
unlike anything you have seen or heard about before. We don't even
like to refer to them as laundry balls because this is such a unique
process and technology. This is a twice-patented technology based upon
harnessing permanent magnetic force to assist the washing process. The
"laundry ball" products you may have heard of are typically little
chemical pellets in a vented, round plastic sphere. These chemical
pellets are used up after a number of washes, and then need to be
refilled. It is still a little better than detergent from an
environmental standpoint, but the process remains a chemical one (very
similar to detergents) and could not be more dissimilar to our patented
magnetic process.
