Live Chemical Free with the lotus Sanitizing System
Take a step towards healthier living! This amazing Sanitizing System from Tersano lets you turn on your faucet and treat your home to an effective sanitizer that safely wipes out germs, odors, stains, mold, mildew and pesticides -- all without chemicals.
When you use lotus, you turn ordinary tap water into the world's most powerful sanitizer in about two minutes, for a fraction of a penny. Studies have shown that ozone is 50-percent more powerful and more than 3,000 times faster acting on bacteria than chlorine -- at 100 times the strength. Water treated with this system will kill 99.9 percent of germs on any surface it contacts.
Use the lotus to clean countertops, appliances, floors, high chairs and other baby items, upholstery, windows, cutting boards, and any surface that attracts mold or mildew. Even carpet and laundry stains -- including red wine and pet stains -- are easy to remove, with no harsh fumes or residue. Lotus also eliminates germs and pesticides from your food. It even extends the shelf life of fruit and produce up to four times longer than if they've been rinsed with tap water.
The lotus system can even be used to freshen and deodorize pet areas, or other potentially smelly places. |
How It Works
The system has two main purposes: (1). to disinfect surfaces and (2). to remove pesticides and kill germs on food. It does this using ordinary tap water.
The lotus patented Oxyshield technology infuses cold tap water with an extra oxygen atom, creating a natural sanitizer. By passing air through 4,500 volts of electricity, the lotus system splits oxygen molecules into atoms and forces this extra atom to combine and form super-oxygen, or ozone. The third oxygen atom becomes the sanitizing agent, a natural oxidant -- which kills bacteria and viruses, and neutralizes pesticides.
Using the lotus spray bottle, it takes about two to three minutes to turn tap water into antibacterial lotus water with 100-percent potential (this is indicated on the unit); and then it remains fully effective for about 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the contents begin to revert to plain water. A countdown timer on the unit tells you when it's time to reload and recharge.
Once the tap water reaches its fully transformed potential (in about five minutes, if you're using the bowl), maximum bacteria and pesticide reduction is achieved after two minutes of soaking. That same helpful countdown timer tells you when your food is completely sanitized and cleansed of pesticide residues.
The lotus Sanitizing System was recognized as one of the Best Inventions of 2006 by Time Magazine. It was also recognized by Donny Deutsch as The Big Idea of the Month.

I LOVE this product and the company who makes it!!!
I have had my Lotus Sanitizing System for a little less than a week now and I love it!!!
I am a cancer patient, recently diagnosed, and also a vegan who eats a great deal of fresh vegetables and fruit. I juice approximately 50 lbs. of carrots per week just for starters. I will be starting chemotherapy this week and the doctors have all emphatically told me that I cannot eat fresh fruits and vegetables unless they can be peeled, but generally not to eat them at all, because of potential bacteria that can lead to infection in chemo patients who have lower immune system functioning. That was shocking to me because those are the foods that we are told are the healthiest for us. I looked around on the web to find out how to wash my produce and quite readily came across the Lotus Sanitizer. Why the physicians don't know about this I'll never know!
I am also a single parent who works the equivalent of 2 full-time jobs, doing low-paid work (teaching and caring for infantren) so the medical expenses that I currently have, even with self-purchased insurance, are insurmountable. The Tersano Company most graciously donated their Lotus Santizer to me, and had it shipped overnight so that I could have it before I started the chemo treatments. They have been the kindest, most helpful folks that I could ever imagine and I am deeply grateful to them!!!
I have been using the Sanitizer daily since it arrived and it works beautifully! Although I buy organic produce, I have been peeling carrots before I juice them, and when I scrubbed the first batch to put in the sanitizer, I had to run it through twice, because I got the F1 code that says all of the bacteria is not gone (thank goodness for that feature!). However, I bought a stiffer brush to wash the carrots and since then I have only had to run them through the sanitizer once. I have sanitized about 7 very large bunches of spinch and 3 large heads of leaf lettuce and they came out great! Everything I have put through has done very well, with the exception of organic strawberries, and I read somewhere that the little seeds might be a problem, plus berries tend to be the most contaminated. I already can see that I will save a lot of money on produce, because I won't have to peel and throw away all of those peelings from 50 lbs. of carrots per week, plus all of the lettuce and spinach, etc. that goes bad in just a couple of days after I buy it, won't be the case since the Lotus helps produce last longer.
I've also been using the spray bottle attachment to clean my counters and wipe down the bathroom every day. I cannot say enough good things about this system. I wish I had known about it long before, because I could have used much less bleach and ammonia for cleaning purposes. I don't have the mop, but I am going to use the sanitized water today to clean my kitchen floor using the microfiber cloth that came with the system.
This is an awesome product, I am so glad I discovered it and I am so very grateful to this company for their kindness and helpfulness. I am recommending this to everyone I know!!! I am not affiliated with this company in any way, I had never even heard of them until I did a web search trying to find out how to effectively wash produce.

Great invention!
We love this thing and use it almost every day. We feel good about the fact that this removes all the pesticides and kills all the bacteria on our produce. We also love using the spray sanitizer in place of chemical cleaners and sanitizers which are not safe for people or the environment. There is a nice clean and fresh smell left behind after cleaning with it which is better than anything made from chemicals. We are definitly going to purchase the mopping system as well as the water purifying system after using this wonderful product. The only down side for us is the fact that we eat a LOT of produce and it takes many 'loads' to clean it all. Also, the bowl is not large enough for some things unless they are cut up which is not recommended in the instructions.

The product works well. It is critical that one used the right level of water, too little doesn't fly. Also, as indicated in some of the other reviews, strawberries (berries in general) and grapes often need more than one cycle. This doesn't seem to be a product issue but an issue with pesticides and the surface volume of the fruit. Organic grapes did not have the issue.
