Can ozone kill viruses and bacteria?
Ozone is exceptionally good at tackling harmful bacteria and stopping it dead. Because of ozone’s highly reactive properties, it means that it simply reacts with the bacteria and destroys it.
Are ozone generators and air purifiers safe?
Yes, entirely safe when used correctly and in line with our operating instructions. Ozofresh generators are designed and built to specifically avoid any health risks that might be present in other machines.
Different methods of ozone production
There are two major ways of producing Ozone. The first is using the Corona Discharge method, and the second uses UV light.
What is norovirus?
Norovirus has been a much publicised problem due to how highly contagious it is, especially in busy and warm environments, such as hospitals and nursing homes. It leaves the sufferer feeling extremely unwell for 24-60 hours with projectile vomiting, diarrhoea, headaches, stomach cramps, fever and muscle pain.
What is ozone?
Ozone consists of three adjoined oxygen atoms, and is therefore referred to as O3, in the same way that oxygen (O2) consists of two oxygen atoms. Ozone is not very prominent in our atmosphere yet it plays a vital role in our day-to-day lives. It is invisible although when concentrated enough it takes on a blue tinge.
WIll ozone remove all odours?
Yes. Currently there are no known odours that ozone won’t help to dissipate. If you come across an odour that is proving particularly difficult to remove, please don't hesitate to get in touch!
Why use ozone?
Ozone's unique ability lies not only in its extraordinary strong sterilizing power but also in the way it is structured as a gas.
Ozone generators from other countries
The ozone generators you can import from other countries, such as China, may not be as stringently tested as products sold here in the UK.
Why does my ozone generator make a noise?
The noise you may notice is the fan(s), the only moving parts in an ozone generator. Their job is to suck oxygen in to create the ozone, and to help propel the ozone as high as possible. Because ozone is heavier than air, it needs to reach a decent height in order for it to be effective at removing pollutants in the air.
Air fresheners versus ozone generators
Air fresheners are used to temporarily mask the odours of everyday life. They don’t remove the smell, merely cover it up.They also need refills, costing money every time they run out.
