What is the typical ozone setting?

I had it on high when the house smelled of mold. Periodically, I put it on low just to freshen up the air.

Start low build it up. If you smell strong ozone turn it down. I LOVE MINE On my second one .

If the ozone filters are new then low. Turn it up as they age ( about 6 months)

You can use the O3, once you set it up just leave the kitchen and wait 10 more minutes after it ends its cycle. You can come back once the ozone is misspended.

I leave my on all the time. Has a setting for the ozone and about midway it smells like fresh clean, crisp rain. My is in a split level 2200 sq ft living area and it is on the lowest level next to a frequently used wood burning fireplace and works in the entire house. I would say worth a try.

I don't have a gauge or anything, but it seems like alot to me. Whenever I use the ozone, I make sure to have on a fan to circulate the air.

While I am unable to state how much ozone is produced, I can tell you how I use the unit. I put the unit into any room in my house that has an odor, run it for a couple of hours, and then let the room air out, and odor is gone. I also use it under sinks, or anywhere that I might have mold, and again it has worked very well.

There is a button called, "Away." Set fan and purify to high, set the number of hours, and push "away." It will blast ozone for the number of hours you set it for.

I'm no scientist but amount of ozone that is generated by a plasma device such as this is minimal but some people are more sensitive. If your looking remove odor I had great results with an ozone generator to remove smoke or other offensive odors permanently. I always put pets outside, leave for a couple hours, turn it off, and find some entertainment for a few hours before I return.

I never turn it off. I turn on the OZONE once a day for 2 hours, but I have a large open basement.

I read that ozone is unhealthy for you and if you have breathing problems such as asthma, COPD, etc. you would not want to run an ozone type unit while you are in the room. If you can smell the ozone then the unit is set too high. It's much better to stay with HEPA type filtering devices. I hope you find this helpful.

It has a UV/VOC button that will put out ozone, but you can just not turn it on if it is a concern.

No, it does not generate ozone when the Plasmacluster ion function switch is on. I have had the unit running constantly since I purchased it a few months ago & not smelled anything.

I just plugged it into the regular plug in the kitchen (does not require a higher volt). You probably don't want to plug it at head level, because you will smell the ozone too strong. I plugged it lower. Works good. We're pleased.

Yes it is. Do not set your air purifier's square footage settings to the actual square footage of your house. Lowering square footage setting will lower the amount of ozone produced. The instructions that come with the unit will advise which settings will work for you.

Yes you can have a choice to turn off ozones.you can turn your fan on high or low.you do have to replace filters .but if you rinse them and keep them clean.it will one to two years or more before you need to replace filters.plus I had a alpine. Air machine .cost was.like 600.00 And I have to say this machine can do everything. Them high price machines can do.do get one you're going to love it.and it dose cut back on dust..I love my machine..

I would recommend no sooner than an hour ! even after that, there is a slight residual ozone odor, but if you can open windows and doors, it will be totally gone sooner.

Per Consumer Reports, it does emit ozone. I did not order the right size and so because of the error in sizing and the ozone issue I ended up returning it and going with the Lennox Pure Air (correctly sized!) which does not have the ozone issue-it's also very highly rated by Consumer Reports. We've had the Lennox for a little over a year and it's made a big difference.

They do not recommend that you be in the room when it is on, although I have heard some reports of it being ok on low. It is the setting of the ozone that may not be good for them. The machine itself should not be a problem. It is also recommended to be set as high up as possible, so this may help if you are worried they will bother the machine. I can't see them bugging it, because the noise, although fairly quiet, they may not like. Cheers!
