How long are the ozone plates in the Enerzen Commercial Ozone Generator expected to last? How much do replacements cost?

Hi Zvi, Glad to help :). The purification plate is rated to last approximately 6,000 hours and is replaceable. The cost of a replacement is $18.77. I hope this helps and please let us know if we can possibly help with anything else :).

I called the company directly, was transferred to an overseas operator, who said it does produce ozone at 5ppb. 50ppb is the maximum recommended by ??? (she was kind of vague on that one). i wonder whether they understand the technology or all the different emission standards we have here ...

I have no idea but it seems to work very well. There is a very strong "ozone" smell when it's working. I've been using it for months and it's never failed me.

There is a silver probe inside the unit that removes the odors which last about 3 years at 3-5 loads per week. The UV bulbs last about 10 years.

There are technically speaking no filters that aren't permanent and washable. The exception is the plates that are recommended to be replaced yearly, although originally I was running the unit about 8 hrs/day and because of a renovation switched to 24/7 the last six months. I have checked the plates/grid for the ionizer and the ozone generator, and am only now after 18 months getting ready to replace them. They are about 20-25 U.S. dollars for 4, so they are a surprise to be reasonable on an otherwise already low maintenance unit. If you run the unit 8-12 hours/day and use a diluted Ammonia to wash the grid and plate every few months I could see getting two years out of the plates. With the replacement costs being from 6-8 dollars a plate I bought a second set to rotate out and you don't even know we have dogs and cats.

I want to use this ozone generator in my lab, to sterilize every surface or air. I don't have windows and i don't want to leave the door open and new contaminates enter. How long should i wait to be safe to enter the room with no windows and door closed after 2 hours of treatment? 24 hours?I know people tend to open windows and door, but that's not want i want because i want to have the room as sterile as possible.

I have not used it with ozone, but my guess is yes. It's only the stone and the plastic piece. Most of the ozone generators I've seen are full of plastic. Perhaps someone else has actual direct experience with it using ozone.

Agreed. I have two electrolux oxygens at $499, purchased in 2005. Once out of warranty, one actually caught fire in my hand while using it. After customer service told me to order the new parts at about $150, I said the blogs will hear about this. The immediately replaced the faulty parts for free. Great! It is not working and again and neither is the other one. This IS NOT your mother's electrolux! I see they are selling high end appliances now too. What a joke. Stay away.

I've had the same problem with this product. The problem I've found out is that the plates inside the unit that make the ozone need to be recharged periodically to continue to make ozone and this product does not have a way to send the plates back to be recharged so when it's no longer making ozone you've got a rather expensive thing on your hands that does nothing. The company needs to remake the unit so the plates can be removed and sent back to be recharged in a way that is cost effective. I've got 3 of these. The first ran for a long time, the second quit making ozone after only a couple of months and another I bought on ebay that was used and lasted a few months as well. I'm trying to find a manufacturer that makes a unit that lasts or allows recharging. This is the coronal discharge type of ozone machine and perhaps the one that makes it with a UV light would last longer. I may try that next if I find one for a reasonable price. If your problem is that it no longer discharges ozone, otherwise, it may just be some physical defect in the machinery.

The best I can give is that I ran the ozone maker setting on high in a very large closed bedroom for about 4 hours and the smell of ozone was very strong when we walked in to open the windows and the construction odors were pretty much gone, which is why we bought the machine. I've also run the air purifier which also does a nice job. For the money I think it does what it's supposed to do, it's straight forward and well made.

Hi there My unit came with a full one year warranty. One of my electrodes broke off at the base, and they replaced it for free, although warranty said electrodes are non-replacable under warranty. This unit is a high frequency (110-400 Hz) and low amperage (100-200mA), so no worries about getting burned. Hope this answers your question.

I have not the slightest idea, It has never crossed my mind about the emissions. I honestly did not know there was a label with that information. Since this is not a professional model, more of a weekender, I would not expect it to last 300 hours (emission period that is) The unit I am sure will.

I was not completely sure about the answer to this, so I did a little research. From what I could find, it emits 1 part/billion, but that all electronics do emit some ozone, and that anything under 80 parts/billion is safe. I hope this info was helpful - if not, I'd say try contacting Therapure Customer Service directly.

Hi Don, I couldn't put a specific length of time for the longevity of the Redibreeze,but I have customers who have had their Redibreeze for more than 10 years! Something I would like to bring to your attention is our Lifetime guarantee! If at any time during your ownership of an Oral Breeze product, should the workmanship fail, we will replace your unit with a new unit for a small S&H fee! Doesn't get any better than that! Please feel free to contact me if I can answer any further questions. Bets Regards, Janet

Mine has been working well for a few years, but no longer makes ozone, though it cycles and pumps air. The repair part costs $49.99 and a new unit is only $20 more. Overall, unsure which to choose, but without a filter and an air dryer, such units do have a finite life before the ozone unit itself needs replacement.

I assume the warranty of life time would be honored, if I live that long. At least we haven't burned any units up, or over heated them.

Not sure..but I use this machine at my bar and it lasts about 9mos. I use it very often and it works great. I have no worries about replacing it because I use it in high volumes and the price is right,
