Home or business Ozone Shock Treatments may require a pre-treatment assessment. This entails assessing the extent of the odour and determining the appropriate dosing and time required for the treatment.

On the day of the treatment we arrive at the pre-arranged time to setup our equipment which consists primarily of Ozone generators and circulating fans. These are distributed throughout the home or business to maximize the distribution of Ozone and focus on any problem areas.

We ensure that Ozone is also distributed throughout the ventilation system to enhance distribution, but also to ensure any chemicals and microorganisms in the ductwork are broken down or eliminated. Note, this does not remove dust or particles as a duct cleaning operation would.

Prior to turning on the Ozone generators we ensure that all people and pets are removed from the home or business. Fish do not have to be removed from the treatment area. Plants are removed from the area or contained in plastic to ensure they are not exposed to Ozone. We then turn on the Ozone generators and exit the building.

During the Ozone Shock Treatment we post signs at all entrances to ensure nobody enters the home or business. The signs have our emergency contact number should someone need to enter the home or business.

When we return to the home or business we enter the treatment area with a breathing apparatus to turn the Ozone generators off and open windows and use the fans to vent the ozonated air, and replace it with fresh air. It takes from a half an hour to one hour to replace the air with fresh air. A sensitive ozone detector is used to confirm that the Ozone levels are at ambient levels, which is below 0.05 PPM. Upon confirmation, people and pets are allowed back into the home or business. We then remove our equipment. A clean, fresh smell like that of laundry dried outside will be noticeable for roughly 12 hours, then there will be no odours whatsoever.

The total time required for this process typically takes from 4 to 8 hours depending primarily on the extent of the odour problem.

Individual Room or Small Area Ozone Shock Treatments

A similar process to that for homes and businesses is followed when treating smaller areas or individual rooms. People, pets and plants are removed from the area. The home or business does not normally need to be vacated as we take steps to ensure that the Ozone does not escape into other areas of the home or business. These smaller areas typically take much less time than a full home or business Ozone Shock Treatment as less time is required to setup, ventilate, and remove equipment , and also because effective Ozone levels can be reached quicker in the smaller area. The degree of the odour problem dictates the amount of time required.

Boats, cars, trailers, motor homes and similar jobs also require less time than a full home or business Ozone Shock Treatment.
