Practical Uses for Ozone Generators

Ozone generators neutralize contaminants in the air and on surfaces, removing strong odors from chemicals, mold, smoke and decay. The oxidation process breaks down and removes the contamination rather than masking the odor. Unlike chemicals that leave a residue, an ozone generator leaves nothing behind. Hotel rooms and cruise ship cabins are prime examples of spaces that can be cleaned with ozone when the rooms are turned over.

Use ozone generators to remove odors in homes, basements, crawl spaces, apartments, offices, gyms, sports equipment, fitness centers, locker rooms, vehicles, boats and much more. Ozone generators can deodorize individual items by simply enclosing or tenting them in plastic, then connecting the ozone generator to the enclosure. An ozone generator can disinfect and deodorize any space then can be left unoccupied during the treatment.

Ozone generators are essential tools for flood and fire restoration, mold remediation, crime scene clean up, sanitizing trash dumpster rooms, and to decontaminate daycare centers, schools and medical centers. Ozone removes odors from clothing and shoes, a process called ozone dry washing. Hunters use ozone generators outdoors to mask human scent to stay hidden from wildlife. Water ozonators can purify drinking water or generate chemical-free sanitizing sprays.

See BoiE's Ozone Generator Buying Guide for details about ozone generator uses.

What Size Ozone Generator Do I Need?

You need approximately 1,000 mg/hr of ozone to treat 1,000 cubic feet of volume with enough ozone to make odors go away permanently. For example, a 10 ft. x 10 ft. room with a 10 ft. ceiling equals 1,000 cubic feet. Multiply length x width x height to calculate the volume you need to treat.

If an ozone generator has an ozone capacity of 1,800 mg/hr, that unit can shock treat 180 sq. ft. with 10 ft. ceilings and would have an adequate capacity for vehicles or individual rooms. If used in a large home, the unit would mask odors temporarily with ozone's pungent scent, but the odors would quickly return.

We produce ozone generator models for large and small spaces. BoiE ozone generators have the power to reach the ozone concentration needed to perform useful cleaning for the area needed. Restoration service companies use BoiE ozone generators during clean-up projects because our ozone generators produce concentrated ozone to effectively oxidize VOCs, mold and other contaminants.

Will an Ozone Generator Kill Mold in My House?

A high-output ozone generator can kill mold spores in the air and on surfaces - but only if the machine produces enough ozone to reach an effective concentration. If the space is too large for the ozone generator-s capacity, the ozone level will dissipate faster than the machine can replenish it. When this happens, the area never reaches the ozone concentration required to kill mold, a problem known as machine plateau.

This is why understanding ozone generator output is essential before choosing a unit for mold removal or whole-home ozone treatment. The first question to ask is: How many milligrams of ozone per hour does this ozone generator produce, and is that enough for the largest space I need to treat? The higher the ozone output, the faster and more effective the ozone treatment will be.

Be cautious of claims suggesting that simply running a small ozone machine for many hours will eliminate mold or odors in an entire home. An undersized ozone generator will never reach the ozone concentration needed for proper disinfection - and in many cases, it can actually make odors worse.

Can Ozone Permanently Remove Cigarette Odors?

Removing cigarette smoke odor can be difficult, even with a high-output ozone generator. Cigarette smoke is a carbon-based odor that penetrates deep into porous materials like carpet, upholstery, and drywall. It also forms a thin, sticky film on hard surfaces such as walls, ceilings, and cabinets. The odor you smell is usually only a small portion of the total contamination, which is why cigarette odors often linger even after an ozone treatment.

Tobacco smoke contains tar, phenols, acids, and other compounds that cling to surfaces and are challenging to remove completely. An ozone generator can effectively eliminate fresh cigarette smoke odors, such as those found in hotel rooms or recently smoked-in spaces. However, as smoke residue accumulates over time, it becomes embedded in soft materials and adheres to hard surfaces, leaving behind dust-like particles on furniture, inside HVAC ducts, and in hidden areas.

For long-term or heavy smoke contamination, ozone alone is rarely enough. Additional cleaning steps - such as vacuuming smoke particles, wiping surfaces with a soot sponge, steam cleaning, and using mild detergents - may be necessary to remove the microscopic residue that causes odors to return. Multiple ozone treatments may be required for buildings or vehicles with deep, long-term smoke exposure.

An ozone generator can be a powerful cigarette odor eliminator, but only when the ozone reaches all smoke-affected surfaces and is combined with proper cleaning methods as needed.

What is a Shock Ozone Treatment?

A shock ozone treatment refers to applying a high enough ozone concentration to permanently remove odors, bacteria, and other contamination. Research from the U.S. EPA National Risk Management Research Laboratory found that a minimum ozone concentration of 5 parts per million (ppm) was required to eliminate resistant bacteria specimens.1 Achieving 5 ppm typically requires an ozone generator capable of producing around 1,000 mg/hr of ozone for every 1,000 cubic feet of space, though actual results can vary depending on temperature, humidity, and ventilation.

Performing a shock ozone treatment requires following all safety precautions and the manufacturer-s instructions. Treatment time depends on the size of the area and the output of the ozone generator. The space must be completely unoccupied - including people, pets, and plants - during the ozone treatment. After the treatment is complete, the ozone must be allowed to dissipate before reentry unless a proper respirator is used. Warmer temperatures and increased ventilation help speed up the natural air recovery process.

Are Ozone Generators Effective Against Viruses?

Yes - scientific research shows that ozone generators can be effective against viruses. Researchers at Fujita Health University demonstrated that ozone exposure deactivates SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19, during controlled experiments using an ozone generator in a sealed chamber. Their findings indicate that ozone is effective not only against the current coronavirus strain but also against previous variants.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) notes that high concentrations of ozone can be used to disinfect unoccupied spaces. According to the EPA, "high concentrations of ozone in air, when people are not present, are sometimes used to help decontaminate an unoccupied space from certain chemical or biological contaminants or odors (e.g., fire restoration)."2 The agency also emphasizes that ozone disinfection is appropriate only when exposure to people, pets, and plants is fully controlled.

Viruses have no natural defense against ozone. During the 2003 SARS outbreak, ozone achieved a 99.22% viral kill rate3, demonstrating its strong antiviral capabilities. Ozone has broad sanitizing applications for homes, businesses, and commercial environments. In laboratory tests conducted by Kowalski et al., ozone generators removed 99.99% of bacteria within 40-60 seconds of exposure4, highlighting ozone's rapid and powerful disinfecting properties.

How to Use Ozone Generators To Disinfect Viruses

The U.S. Army has reviewed the effectiveness of using ozone to eliminate the coronavirus within buildings and vehicles and has released guidelines for ozone generator use.5 Below are the key conclusions from the U.S. Army Public Health Center:

When used with proper protocols, an ozone generator is a proven disinfectant that safely kills both airborne viruses and those on hard and soft surfaces. Ozone reacts to contamination thousands of times faster than bleach and leaves no harmful chlorinated by-products. Concentrated ozone can safely decontaminate a room, a vehicle, upholstery, air and surfaces.

Can Air Purifiers Protect Against Viruses?

There is no evidence that they do. Millions of air purifiers are sold in the U.S. each year. What air purifier manufacturers won't tell you is that effectiveness against viruses is unknown. Viruses are very small (.004 to 0.1 microns) and can pass through HEPA filter material. HEPA air purifiers have been proven to trap larger particles such as dust and bacteria, but contain openings much larger than viruses. The amount of protection offered against any type of virus is unproven.

Researchers studying the use of portable HEPA air filters have concluded that "there is a complete absence of evidence as to whether they actually reduce the acquisition of [viral] infections" because relevant studies have only reported on the removal or capture of airborne bacteria, which can be hundreds of times larger than viruses. "Our systematic review uncovered a considerable gap in evidence around whether portable air filters reduce the incidence of respiratory infections, including SARS-CoV-2."5

Air purifiers are passive devices that can only act on air passing through, while much of the contamination that causes odors or sickness is present on surfaces the air purifier can never reach. On the other hand, ozone spreads and saturates the air along with fabric and carpets, breaking down volatile organic compounds (VOCs), mold, bacteria, viruses and other contaminants.6 For serious odor elimination and viral disinfection of a large, unoccupied area in a short period of time, ozone generators far surpass air purifiers.
