Aqua-6, 120 mg/hour Water Ozone Generator

When it comes to cleaning you just can't beat nature. For too many years we have been using chemicals and those chemicals stink and adhere to everything and are all around not healthy in the slightest. Now we have ozonators?After using steam to clean surfaces I was intrigued to hear about ozone producers so I purchased this appliance.My first reaction?Well, it looks no different than a fish aquarium bubbler. Then I turned the unit on and stuck around seeing that as the directions stated, you have a 10 second delay before the unit comes on. I would say this is for giving you time to leave and close the door so the room will be unattended during its cleansing. Everyone is different, there just may be people sensitive to the smell and like it says in the instructions- could cause a burning sensation in the nostrils or lungs of certain individuals.(like smoke, bleach, ammonia etc... but you don't hear any statements much about that)I made the mistake of thinking the counter on the unit was minutes and not as the instructions stated numbered timings. so the number 2 is 5 minutes, not two minutes, but no bother, the gallon of water I treated was 5 minutes long instead of two minutes which didn't seem to hurt a thing.The smell? Well, that is hard to describe until you experience it. Metallic, yeah a little bit, but not unpleasant, just odd. After a few hours after the treatment it starts to smell like after a rain storm, nice and clean. And when I treated the gallon of water I placed my hand over the jug and when the oxygenized molecules hit my hand I put it up to my face and smelled it- to me it almost smelled like very cold plastic, like if your taking a frozen water bottle out of the freezer in a very hot room, but add a tiny hint of citrus to that smell. This intrigued me so I went to my cats and let them smell my hand. Hey, what can I say, they have great little snouts on them, they will let you know if something is healthy or not in an instant- let them smell your hand lotion and if they run away be aware that there is something not good for you in it. Anyway, the cats were really sniffing away, they liked the ozone smell bunches! So I then treated the bedroom, moments after the treatment I opened the door the cats went in and hung around the room so the smell is not harmful I predict or so says the finicky cats!This is our future apparatus for cleaning, we just can't go pouring bleach on all surfaces to remove molds and fungus. And we don't live near a volcano for that extra molecule of oxygen. So I wonder, how well do plants grow in rooms treated, and what does happen at the molecular level, are we awakening DNA that was once sleepy silent? Hmm, that leaves me with ever more reasons to use this product more. And I'm going to go read more articles on it and maybe find more answers than questions.

I live in Mexico, where we should disinfect all our fresh produce. I paid over $1,000 to have a really nice ozone generator built in under my kitchen sink. It is big enough to handle the job of keeping a large hot tub or swimming pool safe. I couldn't take it with me when I recently moved, and found this little guy on Amazon. I bought it while visiting my family in the States, and it is light enough to easily pack in your suitcase.I've been using it in my kitchen to safely disinfect my foods, and it works great. It is not attached to my plumbing like my other one, so I drop the tube with ceramic ball into my pan of water (not over 4 inches under) and let it do the job.What they don't tell you is that the water changes molecularly, and stays ozonated for 10 to 15 minutes, so wash your counters or soak your utensils in the water after you finish the 15 minute treatment with the produce.If you have eaten something that causes your stomach to churn, drink this water while it's ozone, and it will kill the bacteria in your stomach immediately! I highly recommend using something like this in every home. This one is just so affordable that it amazes me. I read all the reviews, so I don't know if it is a good idea to use it for oil. But the concept is interesting, and the instructions say you can do it.This unit can be used to kill the germs in the air of a room too. Imagine, after having a cold, or the flu, moving the person out and bringing this in to freshen things up! I can't do that with the $1,000 one attached to my plumbing in the house I built. So, I am a very pleased customer.

I am using this to keep my cold dunk chest freezer setup clean from anything that might grow in it instead of using chemicals. I've had it in a waterproof box outside for almost two years now (left it out through two winters in Colorado) and it's still running fine and keeping the water clean.BE VERY CAUTIOUS THOUGH! Be very careful to breathe in as little of the ozone as possible. This last weekend I accidentally knocked loose the hose that connects to the bottom of the unit so instead of the ozone going into the freezer it filled up the waterproof container. When I opened the container I got hit with a concentrated breath of ozone and have been suffering since. I've also breathed it in when opening the chest freezer and now make sure to hold my breath when opening the lid and air out the freezer for a few minutes before getting in.Ozone irritates your nasal passages and other airway passages and it's been like having a bad head cold for the last 3 days. Along with the irritation it increases your bodies allergic reactions to allergens like pollen. So the last few days have been lots of sneezing and lots of mucus production and a sore throat for the first two days. Feeling a bit better on the third day after.Sources:Health Effects of Ozone in Patients with Asthma and Other Chronic Respiratory Disease from the epaEnhancement of Nasal Inflammatory and Epithelial Responses after Ozone and Allergen Coexposure in Brown Norway RatsLots of other articles with a quick Google search.TL;DR good unit that's worked for me but be careful!
