QUESTION: WHAT IS OZONE?
ANSWER:
Ozone is sometimes called "activated oxygen". It contains three atoms of oxygen O3 rather than the two atoms we normally breath. Ozone is the second most powerful sterilant in the world and its function is to destroy bacteria, viruses and odors. Interestingly ozone occurs quite readily in nature, most often as a result of lightning strikes that occur during thunderstorms. In fact that "fresh, clean, spring rain " smell that we notice after a storm most often results from natures creation of ozone. Ozone is also created by water falls and other natural sources. We are probably most familiar with ozone from reading about the "ozone layer" that circles the earth above the atmosphere. Ozone is created by the sun's ultra-violet rays. This serves to protect us from the ultra-violet radiation, the ozone itself decays back to normal oxygen rapidly.

About OzoneQUESTION: HOW DOES OZONE WORK?
ANSWER:
While ozone is very powerful, it has a very short life cycle. When it is faced with odors the extra atom of oxygen destroys them completely by oxidation. In so doing, that extra atom of oxygen is destroyed and there is nothing left...no odor....no extra atom, only oxygen. In addition to the effectiveness of ozone, we also know that it is SAFE to use. Note that no one has ever claimed an illness resulting from ozone exposure.

Ozone O3
The three-atom form of oxygen is a naturally occurring compound in the earth's atmosphere. The life cycle of ozone is: generation, oxidation, return to oxygen.Trace amounts of ozone are formed by the sun and by lightning. Ozone cannot be stored or transported because of its unstable tendency to break down quickly, so ozone must be generated on site.
Because gaseous ozone is highly reactive, it readily oxidizes (breaks down) organic matter. When the ozone encounters another compound, one oxygen atom will break away, attach itself to the compound, and oxidize it. Ozone actually breaks down odor-causing compounds, thereby eliminating the odor and changing the ozone back to oxygen (O2).
Ozone acts 3000 times faster than chlorine as a bactericide, and it is the strongest oxidant commercially available for air & water treatment. One of the best features of ozone is its ability to control odors by attacking the offending organisms.

About OzoneHOUSEHOLD ODORS
One of the most powerful and effective eliminators of smoke and a myriad of other odors is ozone. Ozone Generator machines utilize ozone to destroy tobacco smoke and its inherent impurities plus odors from pets, cooking, mold, mildew and other household sources. Elimination of these hazards provides a much healthier atmosphere and a more comfortable living environment.

INDOOR AIR POLLUTION
Indoor air pollution is recognized as one of the major health concerns facing the nation today. This condition has been created by the search for more energy efficient buildings, work places. Through the use of an Ozone generator we can dramatically reduce the pollution contamination, creating a much safer atmosphere indoors. Restaurants, lounges, beauty shops and many other public areas can be cleansed of odors by destroying the source with ozone.

QUESTION: WHAT IS THE RIGHT LEVEL OF OZONE?
ANSWER:
The right level is when all the generated ozone is being used up accomplishing its job. Initially the machine's output is set high to get rid of the problem odor as quickly as possible. As this is being accomplished less ozone is required for the diminishing odor etc., thereby leaving some residual ozone in the air. If the machine output is not turned down after awhile then more residual ozone will be in the air.
If there is a heavy smell of ozone, then there is more ozone present than is required to do the job. Simply turn the output level control down, or the unit off.
It is not necessary that you even smell the sweet smell of ozone (compared to fresh country air following a thunderstorm) for it to be effective. Even roses are an objectionable odor to some people, when in excess.

About OzoneQUESTION: HOW LONG DOES THE OZONE LAST?
ANSWER:
As soon as ozone is formed in the generator and dispersed in a room some of it decays back into oxygen. This step occurs by several processes including the following: Natural decay (or revision to oxygen) due to ozone chemical instability. The natural process is speeded up by the presence of walls, carpets, furniture etc. Oxidation reaction with odor causing organic material, which removes ozone. Reactions with bacteria again consumes ozone by oxidation reactions. Additionally ozone itself has a half life which means that any extra ozone will return to oxygen within at most 30 minutes, in amounts equal to half its level.

QUESTION: HOW DOES OZONE HANDLE TOBACCO SMOKE?
ANSWER:
It eliminates the irritation caused by phenol gasses, by oxidizing them. Phenol gasses are the invisible part of tobacco smoke that cause such offensive odors, and discomfort to one's eyes and nasal passages . Ozone rids any offensive odors in the environment rather than merely filtering out some of the visible particles like other " air cleaners".

QUESTION: WILL THE ODOR COME BACK?
ANSWER:
No. Ozone destroys the source of the odor.

IS OZONE SAFE?
ANSWER:
YES. Ozone is very safe, it only produces trace amounts of nitrogen oxide, and is the safest, most effective air cleaning tool there is. Don't be fooled by other manufacturers claims that ionizers, HEPA filters, and O4 generators are safer and better.
Ozone Generators do NOT put out a high level of nitrogen oxide, as some manufacturers wrongly claim. They also do put out O4, O5, and so on, as well as O3, and millions of negative ions as a by product. The plain and simple truth is there are no more effective air cleaning units than O3 or Ozone generators. Period!About Ozone

OZONE GENERATORS...
Clean the air and reduce the risk of bacterial, viral and other infections. Applications are quick and easy as units are portable and only require 20 minutes to treat the average room. Ozone generators Have proven to be the most effective way to to quick clean the air in any room no matter how big or small.
Even though O3 is harmless to humans and pets, O3 is lethal to almost all viruses, bacteria, fungi, and cancer cells. There have been numerous articles in scientific literature to prove this fact. O3 also can eliminate Pollens that cause eye, nose, sinus infections and allergies; Carbon Monoxide that causes headache, nausea, shortness of breath and death; Formaldehyde that causes headache, nausea, shortness of breath and asthma; Chemical Gases that causes lung damage, headache, nausea and irritations; Benzene that causes brain damage, headache, nausea, irritations; Dust Mites that cause asthma attacks, allergies, infections, fatigue and depression; Mold & Mildew that causes allergies, fatigue, depression, sinus disorders and death; Cigarette Smoke that produces 4,600 chemical compounds, and much more to list.
O3 is 5,000 times more powerful as a germicide than chlorine, yet it is much safer. When O3 is made by corona high voltage discharge it produces negative ions as a byproduct. Negative Ions transport the O3 molecule to the air borne contaminant. Purifying on the attack, it also neutralizes the positive charged piece of dust causing it to be destroyed or fall to the floor. what is Ozone water? the Ozone dissolved at water easily, the ordinary water keeps fixed the ozone of consistency reasonably is ozone water,it is called "life-force water" by people."life-force water " is the natrue water which haven't been polluted and contain the various mineral substances that are favour of the human body,it is flowing and admitted as the most ideal , safety , pure and nourished " drinking water ".About Ozone
