Ozone is a colorless gas with distinct ,pungent odor, it is a molecule made up of 3 atoms of oxygen,. 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 generators create ozone in your home or business ensuring the same clean air as found in nature.
Ozone is one of the most powerful disinfectants in the world, second only to Fluorine. It is three thousand times more potent than chlorine in destroying germs, bacteria, and viruses.
2. What are the uses of Ozone?
Some commons uses are: Drinking Water Purification, Waste Water Purification, Food processing Purification, Air Freshening. Pool and Spa Water Purification
3. How does Ozone used for water purification, affect the air we breathe?
The amount of Ozone produced by an Ozone Generator is insignificant to the normal atmosphere we live in. Excess ozone quickly converts back to oxygen. NOTE: DO NOT BREATHE CONCENTRATED OZONE
4. Is the Ozone the same as "SMOG"
No! "Smog" is air pollution created by combustion polluters. While smog contains small amounts of ozone, it is largely composed of harmful chemicals such as carbon monoxide. In fact, Smog and other pollutants may contribute to the damage of the "Ozone Layer".
5. If I use Ozone in my pool or SPA, will I help to replenish the " Ozone Layer"?
No. It takes such tiny amount of Ozone to effectively purify water that any molecules breaking free into the air are insignificant
6. Will Ozone hurt me?
No! In the quantities necessary to be effective, Ozone is very gentle to humans and equipment in the water. NOTE DO NOT BREATHE CONCENTRATED OZONE
7. Does Ozone have an odor?
Yes. Depending on the concentration, the odor ranges from slightly sweet to moderately antiseptic
8. Will Ozone kill bacteria and kill viruses?
Yes. It is one of the most effective, complete bactericides of all Earth's measurable elements
9. How is Ozone different from Chlorine?
In the quantities needed for water purification, it has no noticeable order, taste or color. It is not irritating to humans or equipment. Ozone purifies water and air very quickly and efficiently, 3000 times faster than chlorine. Ozone leaves no by-products except pure oxygen. In contrast, chlorine leaves a chemical by-product called hydrochloric acid and additional salts in water applications.
10. Can the Ozone in my pool irritate skin or eyes like chlorine in pools?
No! Ozone is very gentle to skin and eyes.
