Used towels and linens shall be laundered by

• A. Domestic Washing
• B. Non Commercial Laundering Process With Commercial Laundry Detergent, Used According To The Manufacturer's Instructions
• C. Hand Washing In Cold Water
• D. Dry Cleaning

Answer: (B)

The main idea is that used towels and linens must be cleaned in a way that reliably sanitizes them for reuse in a spa or esthetics setting. The required method is a non-commercial laundering process using commercial laundry detergent, used according to the detergent manufacturer’s instructions. This combination ensures the items are cleaned and disinfected following established guidelines, producing consistent results and reducing the risk of cross-contamination.

Why this fits best: using a non-commercial process with a detergent designed for laundry, and following the manufacturer’s instructions, provides the proper concentration, temperatures, and cycles needed to achieve effective cleaning and sanitation. Other methods don’t guarantee that level of sanitization: domestic washing may not specify the correct detergents or cycles, hand washing is impractical and unlikely to meet sanitation standards, and dry cleaning uses solvents that aren’t appropriate or necessary for towels/linens used in esthetic services.
