does this put out ozone?

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

Unknown. Because the UV is a feature that you can turn off or on, you don't have to use it. The unit itself does a very good job without the UV. You could try calling the manufacturer-their website doesn't mention the type of UV light, but customer service might.

No, this product does not emit ozone. The UV-C bulb has a special coating that prevents the release of ozone. In my view this product is a superior product over an electrostatic air purifier because of it's True HEPA filter. More air is circulated with the AC4825 and pushed through the HEPA filter which can capture 99.97% of airborne particles as small as .3 microns in size. UV-C is an added benefit because it is proven to kill viruses and bacteria.

Not on the device I belive but dident read that into the instructions there is a lot of info on ozone on the net biggest thing is if your sensitive to Ozone it's best not to be in the room while you're doing the wash otherwise it's not that bad unless you stick your head in the washer

No ozone whats so ever. It does emit negative ions that are harmless and help clean the air in addition to the filters. Blue Air also employs negative ions, but I believe the RBbit is a much better product --I own a Blueair purifier and the filters are way expensive and last only 6 months and the Rabbit does just as good a job cleaning the air, if not better. Hope this helped.

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.

Yes it produces ozone but not in high concentration . otherwise we could have coped with global warming by using these fans . LOL You can google more and let me know too. I uses this feature rarely when i feel there is dust around to ionize it and settle it down.

Yes, when you turn the ozone up to the highest level, the ozone will not turn off until you do so manually. You can also use the AWAY mode which will turn the ozone up to the highest level, and run it on the units built in timer.

Yes, all UV-C products produce dangerous amounts of ozone! See: http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/chem03/chem03323.htm

According to the directions you are not supposed to breath in the air that is put out from the Ozone Generator. In our application we let it run in a closed environment then aired out the area for about 1 hour prior to anyone entering. That said, there is no real odor to speak of, more like a clean air smell i can most closely attribute to a no fragrance Febreeze.

Not really, but here is EPA's stand on how ozone generating devices are being sold as air purifiers... http://www.epa.gov/iaq/pubs/ozonegen.html

Yes, you will notice an " ozone" smell. It is not unpleasant and gets rid of cooking odors. I think it freshens the house

I am a customer. I am also a scientist. For UV lamps to produce ozone, the bulb must produce a very specific wavelength of light. UV used to kill microbes and the like is UVC which does not produce ozone. Mere presence of high voltage als does not mean that you produce ozone. Do a search on ozone generators!

No, just keep the air flow holes clear. If I remember correctly, the ozone exhaust hole needs to be cleaned with a Q-tip every once in a while.

It uses a filter rather than ions to clean the air. So it should not emit ozone.

Ozone system has a ozone generator to help kill bacteria in the water. But it only works on "boost" cycle. Just a fyi.

My belief is that it doesn't. What it does do is add ozone to the water which is good for disinfecting and it also makes the veggies last longer when you rinse them with this water but it will not make your water drinking water if it is not purified through another source.

No, But the ozone the machine produces is far more effective at sterilizing the air than uv!!!
