Top 5 Must-know Ozone Generator Facts for Homeowners

queenaire-ozone-generators-family-croppedThe investment in an ozone generator is the beginning of a practice to eliminate odor naturally. For homeowners who do not want to release noxious chemicals and heavily scented droplets into the air they breathe, this technology is the right choice. How do you know that this form of stink removal is a good option for you?
  1. Ozone removes odors at the molecular level. Unlike sprays that seek to combat one smell with another, ozone succeeds at getting rid of the contaminants that cause the smells. Ozone reacts with the molecules that cause a variety of odors and destroys them.
  2. Generators curtail dust. The typical ozone generator not only produces ozone but also ions that cause the particles making up dust in your home to clump together. Now heavier than air, the dust falls to the ground. Enjoy breathing cleaner air while simply vacuuming up the dust.
  3. Ozone is safe. The Food and Drug Administration agrees that typical ozone found in your home qualifies for the GRAS (generally recognized as safe) rating. In large quantities, this rating does not apply. If you can smell it, it is probably too much.
  4. You can adjust ozone levels. Maintaining a fresh air smell with ozone requires very low quantities. When you need to eliminate odor from today’s cooking experiment, the mold smell in the basement and the stink from the forgotten garbage in the garage, you probably need to increase the ozone level there. For particularly bad stinks, simply increase the ozone and leave the area for a bit.
  5. Broad range of products. You have options when shopping for an ozone generator. A QT Storm can treat up to 10,000 cubic feet and release between 3 mg of ozone per hour and 300 mg of ozone per hour. A Rainbowair 250 Series II machine treats spaces measuring up to 2,500 square feet and offers an ozone output of up to 250 mg per hour. A Newaire Plugin Series I model stays out of the way and treats rooms up to 500 square feet.

When you are ready to learn more about how to select the right ozone generator for your home, contact us for information on the various models.

Employers Shift Towards Embracing Clean Air Smell Over Chemical Scents

At one time, businesses were encouraged to pump public spaces full of artificial fragrances. The marketers thought that doing so would spur consumers to spend more and be happy. But that school of thought, as evidenced by a recent article in the Las Vegas Review-Journal, has slowly started to go by the wayside. Now, people are more apt to opt for a clean air smell than one filled with chemicals. Here’s why:

As the Las Vegas Review-Journal article indirectly pointed out, people have slowly become more aware of conditions like fragrance sensitivity. And as that awareness has grown, more human resources departments are focusing on implementing fragrance free policies. The policies currently vary widely from firm to firm. However, many contain provisions that prohibit the use of fragranced products by all staff and promote the use of workplace air purifiers.

Part of this newfound understanding may be traced back to the Americans with Disabilities Act, which was amended in 2008. After it was amended, some people started to consider fragrance sensitivity a disability. That, in turn, opened up uncharted territory that many firms were not prepared to deal with at the time.

Consequently, a few people afflicted with the condition began suing employers that did not make accommodations for them. Some won their cases and others did not. So at the time, that only added to the confusion. Needless to say, those types of adverse events also prodded more businesses to err on the side of caution and meet the needs of scent sensitive individuals as best they could.

Thankfully, businesses hoping to implement fragrance free policies of their own in 2014 have a lot more options to choose from than they did when the collective shift towards the new way of thinking began. On that list of options are air purification systems such as Rainbowair Ozone Generators, Newaire Hydroxyl Generators and Plugin Deodorizers and Queenaire Ozone Generators. Slightly different in design but united in purpose, all three can remove irritating fragrances from the workplace and leave a comforting, clean air smell behind.

Pet Odor Doesn’t Have To Be a Reality in Your Home

Most of us have visited the veterinarian at some point and there’s no denying that there’s a certain smell that permeates the entire facility. If you own pets then you may be familiar with that same pet odor in your home. It doesn’t mean that your home is unclean or that your pets need a bath; it’s sometimes just a fact of life when having pets.

The problem with traditional deodorizers is that they only mask the odor and what you end up with is a perfumed dog smell instead of getting rid of the problem causing the odor in the first place.

The difference in using a deodorizer and an ozone generator is like night and day. An ozone generator works to destroy the odor causing atoms instead of simply masking the smell temporarily. What you then get is a clean, fresh smell similar to a walk on the beach or after a storm. This is because of the ozone being a natural purifier. It destroys the gases that cause the odor in the first place instead of working as a re-odorant like traditional sprays and scents.

For smaller rooms you can use the Newaire Plugin Series I or for an entire house you may want to try a larger unit such as the QT Storm which treats areas up to 10,000 sq feet. Your home will smell clean and fresh without pet odors and it works for all kinds of odors such as trash smells, cigarette odors, and everything that makes your home smell less than clean.

If you want to learn more about how you can effectively get rid of pet odor or any other kind of odor in your home then simply contact us and we’ll be glad to help you find the right product and how to use safely in your home.

Negative Ionizers May Help Banish a Case of the Blahs

Do you have a history of coming down with frequent episodes of the seasonal blahs? If so, you might want to contemplate investing in negative ionizers. Negative ionizers, as you might have assumed, are designed to generate negative ions. Naturally found in the earth’s atmosphere, they are capable of performing many beneficial tasks. For example, studies have shown that they may help to banish the blues in some individuals.

Learned researchers have actually been making such claims about negative ions for several years now. One of the early studies released on the topic appeared in a January 1995 issue of the Journal for Alternative Complementary Medicine. Others appeared in a 1998 issue of the Archives of General Psychiatry, a February 2006 issue of Monitor on Psychology and an August 2012 issue of Psychological Medicine. Essentially, they all indicate that the negative ions produced by negative ionizers can have a surprisingly positive impact on a person’s overall mood.

As such, people that suffer from various mood disorders are increasingly starting to incorporate the machines into their at home treatment routines. In addition, there are even institutions like the Oregon State University that are adding negative ionizers to their list of student services.

With all of that said, you may want to talk to your family psychologist or physician to see if negative ionizers may be appropriate for your particular situation. If your personal doctor agrees, our team of ozone experts can help you select the right negative ionizer for your needs.

For more information about negative ionizers, please contact us at (866) 676-9663. All of our products are manufactured in the United State of America and come with a 30 day, money back guarantee.

Using Ozone Technology to Permanently Remove Mold and Mildew

queenaire-ozone-generators-family-750
Many people all over the world suffer from problems with mold and mildew odor in their homes, and are often in search of a way to rid the house of this unforgiving and difficult problem. When you get mold in different areas of the house, this then leads to mildew, which can leave a nasty odor in the area.  Mold is essentially a fungus and is found in areas where there is little ventilation and a warm, damp surrounding. Mildew is basically mold which has attached itself to some kind of material, mainly fabric and is usually found on carpets, rugs, clothes, towels and linens.

Mold and mildew odors are a problem in many households and is difficult to get rid of completely. As well as mold and mildew odor being unpleasant to our senses, it can also be dangerous to people with allergies as it contains irritants and toxins which can be harmful. In most cases of mold and mildew odor, traditional deodorizers and cleaning equipment doesn’t get rid of it completely, it is important to make sure that all of the molecules and bacteria are removed; the best way to achieve this is by using ozone technology to eliminate mold and mildew completely.

Ozone is created through a device which naturally creates ozone molecules from the air and then pushes them out into the area of the offending mold and mildew odor. The ozone molecule which is made up of three oxygen molecules will then separate and attach itself to the mold molecules and neutralize them. Once the oxygen atom has attached, the mold molecule is stripped of its personal odor characteristics and is dispersed as a neutral atom. Ozone is a very efficient air cleaner, as well as being proficient in odor control, as it is able to purify the air around it in a green and natural way, without releasing strong odors and chemicals into the air instead. The equipment that generates ozone is becoming more widely available and is a great investment as it takes care of the mold and mildew odor forever rather than just masking it for the immediate future.

The technology also has major health benefits as it works as a brilliant air purifier. This is why ozone is often referred to as the world’s natural air filter, which makes the air cleaner and healthier for people who suffer from allergies and irritations in their lives.

The Queen of QueenAire: A Note From the President, Susan Duffy

Welcome to the Ozone Experts blog!  First let me thank you for taking the time to check us out.  My name is Susan Duffy; I am the president and owner of the Newaire, Queenaire, and Rainbowair lines of ozone products.  I personally have been selling this technology for over 20 years, and while I hate to age myself, I am very proud of the fact that I am still here selling a product that I have spent a big part of my life traveling from state to state touting the benefits of the technology to anyone who will listen to me.

The business has moved with me and my three children three times over the years and today operates out of our new 6600 sq/ft warehouse in my hometown in upstate NY right on the beautiful St. Lawrence River.  With my daughter Nicole Plumley now handling the day to day operations, I am happy to say that the business runs smoothly and continues to grow as ozone technology becomes more main stream and more and more users spread the word as to the magic of ozone.  There simply is nothing more effective on the face of this earth for eliminating odors, in fact ozone is how mother nature cleans the face of the earth. 

For those of you that still don’t know what ozone is or how it works, simply put, it is the “fresh” in the air that blows through your windows and makes everything smell nice.  It is used by hotels, car dealers, apartment owners, nursing homes, schools, municipalities, grocery stores, restoration companies, homeowners and on and on…the common thread being the destruction of odor….naturally, permanently and completely.  For the most part the product has been used commercially so for a lot of people, ozone is still a mystery. 

I write this blog in the hopes that we can spread the word, to help homeowners who are struggling with the cleanup after flood or smoke damage or a visit from a feisty rodant; it seems there is no end to devastation many homeowners are faced with these days.  Cleaning up is a major undertaking and for many just when you thought you were done, there is that lingering odor to remind you of the mess you had.  Restoration companies have used this technology for decades to clean up after a disaster. 

If you have a story pertaining to an overwhelming odor that you have experienced, please share it with us!  I look forward to reading your stories.
