Plants and mold and bacteria, oh my! (was: Re: Cigarette Smok...

[Guest guest]

,

I couldn't help but reply to this one as it seems you are not

understanding how the ozone process takes place in order to reduce

the bio-load and not expose people to ozone. First of all, when a

Medallion Healthy Homes company is involved (or if it is someone who

has purchased enough of their own equipment)we strategically place up

to 20 pieces of ozone equipment (depending on sq.ft.)and also put

industrial fans in place. Only the technician is allowed in the

building. Wearing PPE the technician then turns on the ozone

generators and leaves. About 1/2 hour later he/she will enter

(wearing PPE) with an ozone sensor to determine the ozone is reaching

high enough levels, usually 4 ppm or higher, then leaves again, this

time for about 5 hours (or longer, depending on the severity of the

problem). Upon returning, again wearing PPE, the technician re-

enters to turn off the generators and turn ON the fans...he/she

leaves again for about 45 min. to 1 hr., at which time they return

with their sensor and walk about the living/working space in order to

determine when the ozone has returned to safe levels. We do not

allow re-entry until they are at 0.1 or 0.2ppm, which is usually what

it is outside on any given day.
