What
Size Ozone Generator KIlls Mold?
How
to size an ozone generator
Sizing an
ozone generator depends greatly upon a number of factors.
Area size, level
of contamination, and type of use all come into consideration.
We don't like
to list square footage ratings
for our machines because
we feel these
numbers have no meaning.
Sizing depends
upon what are you trying to accomplish.
Using an ozone
generator to help rid a mild odor is a completely different use than
using one to
kill mold or remove strong pet urine smells.
So for a manufacturer
to claim a machine covers 3000 square feet, is absolutely
meaningless!
A smoky, odor
filled room needs more ozone than a relatively clean room.
It is very important
to understand there is a great difference between
air purification
in occupied rooms,
and high ozone
shock treatments blasted into unoccupied rooms,
that are a must
to remove mold odor
and kill mold.
Whole
House In Duct Air Purifiers
If
you are looking for a WHOLE HOUSE
air purifier realize that there is
NO
tabletop unit, of ANY BRAND that
can accomplish this task.
ONLY
a unit that fires ozone into the air ducts,
like the Air-Duct
2000 can evenly distribute ozone
throughout the ENTIRE
home.
Ozone or ions
cannot pass through walls.

For the average
home
use the XT-400
or the XT-800
are the recommended models because of their ease of use, their total
control over the ozone output, and the high ozone outputs needed to remove
strong odors. For any sized room air purification they are the most versatile.
The XT-120
or
the XT-240 can
be used in smaller rooms.
For mold problems
it is usually best to use our XT-2000,
XT-4000,
or XT-6000 units.
For professional
applications we now offer the XT-24000.
The XT-24000
puts out an unmatched 24,000 milligrams per ozone per hour
Remember that
ozone used for air cleaning, is a completely different use, than performing
High
Ozone Shock Treatments , which are effective
for removing stubborn odors like mold, and animal urine odors.
To effectively
kill mold and remove strong odors you must blast a room with many times
more ozone than can be tolerated in an occupied room.
To kill mold and
remove strong odors there needs to be as high an ozone concentration as
possible in the room. Since ozone breaks down to half it strength in 30
minutes it is important to keep producing large amounts of it to keep the
ozone concentration at a sufficient kill level.
Using a smaller
machine twice as long is not the same as using a higher powered machine
since the ozone breaks down so quickly. With a smaller machine the
ozone level never has a chance to "catch up" to the required parts per
million concentration needed to kill the mold or bacteria.
Properly sizing
a machine for any particular situation is very important.
High
Ozone Shock Treatments are strongly recommended
for serious odor and mold removal.
Every
situation for ozone use is different.
Please look at
our charts and understand that these are realistic, but very loosely defined
guides to using our ozone generators.
The amount of
ozone you need to accomplish your job may be entirely different than someone
else's. These are examples to give you the general idea about ozone generator
sizing.
Please
call us if you have any doubt as to what your needs are. We don't want
you to buy too much, or too little ozone for your needs. |

| For MOLD
remediation we recommend our largest ozone generators. Very high levels
of ozone are the most effective way to kill and control mold spores. The
XT-120
or XT-240 are
NOT strong enough to perform High
Ozone Shock Treatments to kill mold, they
can only remove its odor at the ozone levels they produce.
The XT-400
is the smallest model recommended to combat mold, although much
stronger machines are often needed. If you have MOLD
problems we suggest you call us before you choose a machine.
Understand that
"Whole
House Air Cleaning" coverage is only possible
if the machine is set up properly to do so, as in firing the ozone into
the return air duct of your ventilation system.
Otherwise the
ozone generator is designed to work in the room that it is placed in.
NO
air purifier will work through walls and cover the whole house by placing
it in just one room.
Turning the ozone
level up higher to purify another room will only lead to to much buildup
of ozone, and not enough in another.
Sizing
Considerations
What are you planning
to use the ozone generator for?
The XT-120,
XT-240,
XT-400,
and the
XT-800
are great models that can be used for air purification and high ozone treatments
in home's and small businesses.
| The XT-120,
or the XT-240
can purify air in bedrooms and living rooms and also accomplish mild
odor removal in bedrooms, small offices and living rooms with High
Ozone Shock Treatments (with a separate
lamp type timer).
The XT-120
is great for a bedroom, and the XT-240
has double the power to give areas a higher powered treatment especially
in smoky rooms. |
|
|
The XT-400
is one of our most popular & versatile models.
Recommended for
air purifying of bedrooms, living rooms, and even large rooms.
It gives you a
good deal of ozone output for performing
High
Ozone Shock Treatments in these areas.
Removes moldy odors.
This unit can
even be pointed towards the return air duct of your ventilation system
for whole house air purifying. |
|
 |
The XT-800
is recommended for air purifying and odor disinfection of larger home
living rooms and smaller smelly basements.
With it's Half
Power Switch it can handle any sized small
area as well.
It can even be
routed into your ventilation system for whole house air purifying.
Freshens basements
of mold odors and disinfects the air and surfaces of bacteria in these
areas. This unit has the high output needed to accomplish High
Ozone Shock Treatments in larger home
areas.
The XT-800 is
the largest unit that can be used for both air purification, and high
ozone shock treatments. |

XT-2000,
XT-4000, & XT-6000
We have three
standard models for home and professional odor removal.
It is always
recommended to use as much ozone as possible to remove serious odors and
kill mold. The higher ozone output of the machine the easier it is to accomplish
the task.
There is no such
thing as a machine "too large" for a odor removal job.
On the other
hand, not having enough ozone to do the job is one of the biggest mistakes
that can be made
in trying to kill strong odors.
Smaller machines
can never achieve the same results as a higher powered machine.
| The XT-2000
is a home & professional model recommended for removing serious odors
in individual rooms, offices, hotel rooms, and vehicles.
Great for killing
mold in small to medium sized basements.
Capable of performing
odor killing High
Ozone Shock Treatments.
This
unit cannot be used for air purification, it can ONLY be used in unoccupied
rooms. |

For
treating serious mold problems, which machines are best?
The
XT-6000
is the best standard model for strong odor, and mold remediation.
The
XT-14000
is a more Heavy Duty professional model and can work in larger areas.
The
XT-28000
is the most powerful ozone generator we carry.
It is probably
the most powerful ozone generator created that does not require the use
of an oxygen tank.
It can develop
a higher parts per million ozone concentration in a given space than its
smaller brothers.
That higher the
ozone level gets, the faster the job gets done.
To kill mold and
remove strong odors there needs to be as high an ozone concentration as
possible in the room. Since ozone breaks down to half it strength in 30
minutes it is important to keep producing large amounts of it to keep the
ozone concentration at a sufficient kill level.
Using a smaller
machine twice as long is not the same as using a higher powered machine
since the ozone breaks down so quickly.
With a smaller
machine the ozone level never has a chance to "catch up" to the required
parts per million concentration needed to kill the mold or bacteria.
It is always recommended
to use as large a machine as possible for mold and bacterial problems. |

| For professional applications,
or larger area jobs the XT-14000 is a Heavy
Duty ozone generator.
It features a very high ozone output
of 14,000 milligrams per hour without an oxygen tank.
It can be used in very large rooms that
would normally require multiple ozone generators used at once.
It has the power to obliterate mold
in air handling systems when fired into the return air duct. |

Remember the
ONLY
way to compare ozone generators or air purifiers
is by the output
in milligrams per hour.
Square footage
ratings by other manufacturers are meaningless!
It is the total
ozone output in milligrams per hour that counts!
It
is a proven fact that ozone KILLS mold.
