What does ozone water cost per litre of cleaning water?
With ozone water you produce your own surface-cleaning water and can clearly see how the price per litre compares to traditional products.
Discover how the price of ozone water is built up, which costs are involved (machine, water, energy) and why the price per litre for surface cleaning is often lower than with conventional products.
Ozone water price: how to calculate cost per litre
What does ozone water cost per litre?
The price of ozone water focuses on the cost per litre of cleaning water for surface cleaning. You stop paying per bottle of product and instead combine water, energy and maintenance into one clear price per litre.
Our ozone water from the ozone water machine is only intended for surface cleaning. Not intended for consumption or medical use.
How is the price of ozone water structured?
For ozone water, three elements matter most: water consumption, electricity consumption and maintenance of the ozone water machine. You no longer store cans or bottles; the machine produces cleaning water on site. For a technical explanation of the liquid itself, see What is ozone water? and browse our guides.
Water is usually inexpensive and power usage is modest. The main cost is the initial investment in the machine. The more litres you produce during its lifetime, the lower your cost per litre becomes.
Example calculation: indicative price per litre
A frequently used example shows that you can reach an indicative price around €0.0017 per litre, depending on local tariffs for water and energy. The exact number varies per site, but it is typically well below the combined cost of traditional products for the same volume of surface cleaning.
Instead of ordering multiple products and concentrates, you mainly buy wipes, tools and a limited set of specialist products. The ozone water machine supplies the bulk of daily cleaning water straight from the tap.
Why choose ozone water
✔️ You gain a transparent, predictable cost per litre by combining water, power and maintenance.
✔️ You produce cleaning water on demand, cutting back on stock and urgent deliveries.
✔️ You reduce plastic packaging and internal logistics around chemical products.
Two-cloth workflow and consumption
Actual consumption is just as important as theoretical price. The recommended workflow is simple: spray a light mist onto cloth A or directly onto closed surfaces (tables, floors, tiles), clean in overlapping strokes and dry immediately with cloth B. Work from cleaner to less clean zones: touch points, furniture, then wet areas.
For a step-by-step description, read the two-cloth method. By training teams in this procedure you avoid waste and keep real-life cost per litre close to your calculation.
Costs & affordability
You can produce cleaning water for roughly €0.0017 per litre, drawn directly from the tap.
- No storage costs for large volumes of chemical products.
- Simple, repeatable workflow using the two-cloth method.
- Constant availability of cleaning water without separate deliveries.
- Reduced plastic packaging and fewer product types to manage.
- Maintenance after about 1,000 hours or 500,000 litres; budget around €75 for parts.
Common mistakes when comparing prices
A common mistake is to look only at the purchase price of the machine and ignore total cost of ownership. You should spread the investment over the expected lifetime and litres produced, while also adding water, energy and maintenance costs. At the same time, remember to factor in the cost of traditional products you would otherwise buy.
Another pitfall is underestimating volume. Sites with large floor areas or multiple shifts per day consume more litres but also benefit more from the low price per litre of ozone water.
Price scenarios by type of site
Small offices or practices mainly benefit from fewer orders and simpler storage. Larger facilities such as supermarkets, logistics sites or healthcare buildings often see structural savings and easier budgeting because cleaning water is produced in-house at a stable cost per litre.
