Use An Industrial Ozone Generator To Clean Smoke, Fire, Flood, and Mold Damage In Your Home

An ozone generator is one of the few things that will destroy strong persistent odors such as smoke, mold, mildew and pet odors. In fact, many professional cleaning businesses use ozone generators to clean up homes after fire and flood damage. They are also used to clean up dangerous and toxic mold.

At the molecular level, ozone attaches itself to odors, bacteria, and other microbes and destroys them. Ozone is a gas that contains three oxygen atoms. (O3). It is a natural gas that occurs in the atmosphere. Ozone is formed when oxygen is hit by sun’s UV rays or lightning. The clean, fresh smell you notice just after a spring rain is the ozone in the atmosphere.

Ozone generators, also called ozone machines can also produce ozone by passing air through a high-frequency electric field. The air and the produced ozone can be used to purify air. When ozone is dispersed into the air, it kills microbes such as mold and mildew by destroying their cell structure.

Ozone should be used with caution because it is very concentrated. There should always be proper ventilation when you’re present in the same room with ozone. When using an ozone generator to purify a whole room, the room should be closed up and the machine allowed to run without anyone present in the same room.

When the ozone is finished running and there has been enough time for the room to properly ventilate, then the room can be entered again.

As stated earlier, commercial and professional cleaners use powerful, industrial ozone generators to clean up smoke and fire damaged homes, flooded homes, and homes that need to be treated for mold damage.

Ozone generators can also be used by used car dealerships to purify used cars of cigarette, smoke, and burnt smells.
