Abstract

Provided is a washing machine capable of introducing ozone into water at low cost and further promoting dissolution of ozone into water. The washing machine of the embodiment includes a rotating tub, a water supply path that supplies water to the rotating tub, a tank disposed in the water supply path and having a water supply port, a water discharge port, and a gas introduction port that allows a gas to be pressurized and dissolved in water, an ozone generation device that generates ozone, a bubble generation nozzle disposed in the water discharge port of the tank and that generates fine bubbles from the gas dissolved in water, and a control unit that controls water supply and discharge of the tank and the ozone generation device.
