Ozone Shock Treatment Increased Attendance and Test Scores at Louisiana Schools

A very smart Lousiana school teacher who was fed up with her school district’s response to a mold problem in her classroom decided to take matters into her own hands. The panels on the roof were constantly being replaced for visible mold growth. She knew the roof leaked and the area above her roof had a serious mold issue that was making her and her students sick. But what could she do? The admin in charge would simply replace the moldy panels without addressing the mold issue causing the mold in the first place. She read that ozone shock treatments (performed in unoccupied areas) killed mold so she decided to give it a shot. She purchased one of our ozone generators (they all come with 24-hour timers) and set it to run every day at 3 AM for one hour. The results were immediate and remarkable. Less sick days. Higher test scores. More alert students. Even the classroom next to hers started seeing improvements in all of those areas, although not as drastic as hers.

I was so inspired by this teachers success that I am going to GIFT 100 ozone generators to the first 100 teachers that call me at 702-956-0856 and agree to take part of a study to prove that ozone shock treatments in schools can improve health, increase attendance, increase test scores, and increase student participation (happier kids – more alert) If you’re a teacher in a school in the south that has mold issues (musty smells) and you feel that it is negatively impacting your students, take matters into your own hands! Set one of our ozone generators near a box fan in your classroom and have it go off at 2-3 AM (first find out the exact time the classroom is cleaned by the janitor to make sure the ozone shock treatment isn’t being performed at that time.) Ozone reverts to oxygen in 40 minutes. Instead of being greeted with musty odors in the morning, students and teachers will be greeted with mountain fresh-smelling air free of mold, viruses, and bacteria! The ozone shock treatment will kill surface bacteria and viruses as well, a bonus.

(PS. If you’d like to speak with this teacher and get further insight on the dramatic results she encountered, I can pass your information on to her – with your own story, situation – and if she has time (you know how it is as a teacher and parent) she’ll get back to you or email you back a response. She just asks that she keep her identity private – not looking for publicity – and would like to be able to continue utilizing ozone to keep herself and her students healthy and overachieving with grades)
What about trying to go through the school district to approve an ozone shock treatment of your musty mold-infested classroom? Good luck. They think ozone is a dangerous, toxic gas and odds are you’ll never get their approval. An alternative is to buy a toxic mold test kit, prove the area has a mold issue, then contact an attorney. Of course, that will end up costing the taxpayers money, but that’s better than allowing your health of the health of your students to suffer. I like my solution better. Use OXYGEN to kill the mold and increase the oxygen – kill surface bacteria and viruses and be done with it! Ozone shock treatments also kill small insects, mites, and parasites. What’s wrong with that?
By the way, I am a firm believer that when we give away 10% of more of our income, especially if we’re blessed and have more than what we need to survive, we’ll be blessed and never want for anything. More important than that, I believe in karma. When I realized that 100 ozone generators could have a positive impact on over 2000 kids and teachers, the idea of giving away 100 ozone generators became a no-brainer. If this works out as good as I believe it will (with documented proof) I plan on expanding this program via a Non Profit in other parts of the USA and who knows, maybe around the world. First things first. Let’s replicate this teacher’s results and document it, and the rest will take care of itself.

Importance of Winter Ozone Shock Treatments.

Here is a simple truth. To remove dust, all one has to do is run the HVAC system 24/7 in the “fan” position and change a MERV 11 filter every four weeks. (Those filters only cost less than $6 each when you BUY THEM BY THE CASE FROM eBay) That takes care of the dust for one year. HVAC systems push over 3000 CFM and filter all of the air in your home through the filter two times an hour. Inside of the HVAC system I recommend a UVC induct system that zaps viruses and bacteria. A 36W SYSTEM only cost around $60. 

That leaves the most critical component, ozone shock treatments to sanitize and neutralize the “bad guys” that cause illness ….dust mites, their droppings, VOC’s and off-gassing, and household chemicals from cleaners, air fresheners, etc. By the way, don’t use air fresheners, especially Febreze! Products like that contain A LONG LIST OF KNOWN CARCINOGENS and asthma, allergy triggers! There are so many indoor air pollutants that just wreak havoc on your immune system. The worst, in my opinion, are the ones like Febreze that claim to “not only remove odors but eliminate them”; cleaning chemicals. How they managed to avoid being sued for false advertising on that famous claim is beyond me. They don’t eliminate ANYTHING and to add insult to injury ADD toxins to the air which reigns hell down on the poor noses of allergy suffers and the most vulnerable among us …small children who breath many more times per minute than adults!

During the winter months, we spend most of the day indoors. The primary health threat besides the off-gassing and chemicals: dust mite feces. You need to kill dust mites (and any mite for that matter) that are eating up the POUNDS OF DEAD SKIN every living person (or pet) in your closed up indoor environment shed each year and defecating up a storm! That dust you see floating around, yeah, you don’t want to know! But know this, if you perform regular (10 times a month) ozone shock treatments for at least 1 hour, that stuff floating around won’t have any biologically active material (bug crap), and your living area will be mite free and believe me, that leads to better health! 

I could write a book on the 100’s of disgusting things that preside in indoor air that lead to respiratory and sinus issues, and guess what? Ozone is the knight in shining armor that slays them all, from VOC’s, molds, chemicals to mite and bug crap, it neutralizes and destroys the bad stuff and then reverts to oxygen. Ozone is usually the missing element in creating a healthy indoor air environment. Why? Misinformation, deliberate and malicious from some different sources, all with an agenda. The EPA and gov ….you have to know regardless of what you may believe …they do not have our health and best interest in mind. They have their agenda and believe me; it’s not to promote good health! (maybe the health of the pharma and chemical companies stock price, lol). Vendors of “indoor air quality” products …they have an agenda as well. Sell filters that will line their pockets with money until the cows come home! How dare I expose the simple truth that their air purifiers are worthless and that a $6 furnace filter will do a VASTLY superior job of removing dust from your indoor environment! How dare I, right? Who am I to interfere with their “hustle.” I could have continued to make six figures selling air purifiers but at the end of the day, if you’re not happy with what you do to earn a living, what’s the point, right? That’s what I think anyway; there’s more to life than making money. 

I genuinely believe in what I’m doing with ozone. My goal when I started was to bring the price down on ozone generators (mission accomplished) and make ozone generators that last longer (mission accomplished) and make them safer (our ozone generators will never be confused for air purifiers …the primary safety issue with ozone generators). Companies like Ecoquest and Alpine get sued all the time from folks that confuse their machines for air purifiers and breath high levels of ozone while they sleep, ending up in the hospital. Our ozone generators do the job, at a very fair price, and excellent customer service. I hope you consider them when you’re gift-giving this holiday season. Family and friends, especially folks with pets or kids, can reap better health and fewer trips to the doctor this winter if they employ the sanitizing power of ozone shock treatments (when nobody is home) this winter.  

How to Kill Mites with Ozone

I stumbled upon a study that found that ozone does kill mites, but you need a high ozone concentration.  Our ozone generators that feature cooler running ozone plates create the highest ozone concentration possible and as such have been used very successfully at killing all types of mites, including the type that burrows under the skin and causes the most problems.  Click here to view the study.

Ozone shock treatments (always performed in unoccupied areas) create ultra-high concentrations of ozone that rupture the membranes of small parasites and insects, like mites.  It doesn’t take lone (20-30 minutes) as this study suggests to get a 100% kill rate. However, ozone will not kill the eggs so you should follow the protocol we outline in our manuals for killing mites. 

We have several articles on how to kill mites with ozone shock treatments. The protocol is basically 3 weeks, two shock treatments a day. If it’s a serious biting mite infestation, we suggest starting with a ‘hot shot” fogging of the residence followed by the ozone. The ozone will break down the pesticide residue so that it won’t harm you PLUS continue killing mites and their eggs when they pop up. Ozone itself can do the job, that’s the nuclear option.

Ozone Shock Treatments. How and why.

Corporate America and the US Gov to some extent love to push expensive, disposable, completely ineffective (at removing the things in the air that can make you sick) HEPA filters down our throats. If you search for “ozone generators” in the search engines, at least half of the top page results will be anti-ozone generator sites or air purifier vendors. They will try to convince you not to buy an ozone generator and instead buy a HEPA air purifier. Why? The answers are obvious. International Corporations can’t make money from a product that doesn’t require a frequently needed not to mention expensive replacement part. Our government hates ozone for a different reason. They have a population control agenda. If everyone owned an ozone generator, they wouldn’t be able to make you sick with their chemtrails, human-made viruses, or keep you from curing your cancer or another disease with ozone, so they try as they may to vilify ozone and convince you that three atoms of oxygen are smog. When I say “they” I mean the EPA and the medical establishment. The truth is that ozone is nature’s cleanser, and nature ONLY creates ozone when human-made pollutants or smoke from fires or volcanic eruptions are present in the atmosphere along with sunlight to break said pollutants down. Nature does this by splitting oxygen atoms when these conditions exist. No pollution, ozone isn’t created. So why then does the EPA call ozone “smog”? Simple. To divert attention away from the Corporate polluters that pay taxes; mother nature doesn’t. Instead of measuring pollution, they measure the cleaner mother nature has created to break down and remove the contamination, and of course, the higher the pollution, the higher the ozone response. Calling ozone smog is disingenuous at best, and overtly fraudulent disinformation if you think about it.

So why is an ozone shock treatment a “MUST DO” for your home? DESTRUCTION OF BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE FECAL MATER! Before I got into ozone, I sold air purifiers and worked for an environmental engineering firm in Las Vegas that would test the indoor air of folks that became sick. Their insurance companies would hire us to test the air and figure out what was making them sick. Most of those cases dealt with black mold, but guess what else? Fecal matter from mites. All the homes I tested had high amounts of the allergens from the feces of mites. Why? We all shed pounds of dead skin each year, and that’s what the mites eat. And mites poop. They poop a lot. That dust you see when a ray of sun shines in your home is mostly dead skin and mite poop. Over time, that biologically active fecal matter starts to wreak havoc on your immune system, especially if you live in a closed-up home that can’t be aired out. Over the years, the air gets worse and worse until you get sick. Add to the mix molds, bacteria, viruses, parasites, and who knows what from the chemtrails and pollution in our environment. Can HEPA filters remove those things? No. The particles in question that make you sick are too small, and besides, HEPA filters can’t deal with the dust that is constantly being kicked up every time you walk around or sit down; air purifiers don’t move enough air to remove the particles that are continually being kicked up. I explain how to deal with dust in another blog post. So what is the answer? Regular ozone shock treatments are the only answer! Ozone shock treatments are the only way to kill the mites and neutralize their droppings, period.

What is the protocol for a proper ozone shock treatment? You need enough ozone to do the entire structure in one shot; otherwise, the ozone concentration will be too weak to kill mites or neutralize their droppings. You’ll only freshen the air. And you can’t utilize an ozone air purifier; those are low ozone output devices that just make the air smell pleasant and fresh while they’re running, and may be harmful to your lungs in the long haul. We do not advocate breathing ozone, and we only use ozone as a commercial sanitizer to clean the air and rid the air of parasites, mold, viruses, bacteria, VOCs, etc. That’s it.

So how much ozone do you need? 1000 mg/h per 100 sq feet with an ozone generator that does not allow the ozone plate to get too hot. I add that caveat because not all ozone generators are the same. Most vendors sell ozone generators utilizing Chinese stacked transformers that quite frankly get too hot, over 140 degrees to be exact. (if you own one buy a $12 heat sensor and see for yourself). Our ozone plates, on the other hand, stay under 100 degrees because of our “Cool-Tec” designs and our unique ozone transformers and plates. If you choose to utilize a “hot plate” ozone generator, we recommend doubling the ozone concentration. Our tests show that at 140 degrees over 70% of the ozone power is lost to heat.

So now you have enough ozone power, what’s next? You want to use your home HVAC fan to distribute the ozone throughout your home. Leave all of the doors open, open cabinet doors, closet doors, and place your ozone generator under the air return. Our commercial ozone generators shoot ozone straight up at 2400 CFM but if you don’t have one of our units, utilize a box fan and have that facing the air return in the ceiling.

How long does it take to do a proper ozone shock treatment if you have enough ozone power? If you have enough ozone, all it takes is a one-hour shock treatment at a high concentration to kill the “bad guys” in the air that makes you sick. Others will ask you to run their machines 6-12-24 hours because they don’t create high ozone concentrations, but that is not a good idea. Allowing ozone to interact with the substrates in your home for that long is not a good idea. The right approach is to hit it hard, hit it fast, then air it out. If you do that, you will get all of the excellent benefits of an ozone shock treatment without any negative consequences, like breaking down the foam under your carpet or inside your furniture. What is the max amount of time you can shock an area? Our experience suggests six hours with furnished regions, by using the protocol we teach in our manuals, and 12 hours or longer with unfurnished areas.

What if you don’t have an HVAC system? You will need to place several fans around your structure to move the ozone around. Can you go room by room? Yes, but you will not be able to sanitize the air efficiently as some contaminated air will leak into the area that was cleaned and vice versa. You need to do the entire structure at one time to receive the benefits of 100% sanitized air.

After you shock treat your home with ozone, all that is left is to open the windows to air the space out, then run your HVAC fan in the “on” position 24/7 with a MERV 11 filter to address the dust issues. After a shock treatment, you will have dead mites, dead skin, and neutralized mite and pest droppings you want to eliminate from your indoor air. The ONLY way to do that is by running your HVAC fan in the on position 24/7 and changing the MERV 11 filter ever three weeks. (Yes, it will need it – will turn black – but better them than your lungs!) I have meters that measure the amount of dust in the air and believe me, your HVAC fan is 3000 CFM vs. 150 for an air purifier, and you get much lower dust levels running your HVAC fan than placing a $1000 air purifier in every room. The reason is simple. Air purifiers do not churn the air and can only remove the dust immediately near the device. Total waste of money. Ineffective.

I hope this clears the air on ozone generators and exposes HEPA air purifiers and our governments’ “ozone smog” lies for what they are, disinformation. The truth shall set you free, free of illness caused by contaminated indoor air, and free from the lies that seek to keep you a slave to allergy medications, HEPA filters, and Corporate greed.

We Sell and Ship Ozone Generators to California

In a nutshell, the reason why we can and do sell ozone generators in California (from our website, not Amazon, they block all ozone products from sale in California) is that our ozone generators are not air purifiers, they’re commercial shock treatment ozone generators and are marketed and labeled as such. First, here is the law: 

Standards for Indoor Air Cleaning Devices. Except as provided in Section 94803 (Exclusions and Exemptions), title 17, California Code of Regulations, no person shall manufacture for use in California 24 months after the effective date of this regulation, or sell, supply, offer for sale, or introduce into 4 commerce, any indoor air cleaning device for use or intended for use in occupied spaces unless the device is certified by ARB to produce an ozone emission concentration not exceeding 0.050 ppm, as specified in Section 94804; is labeled as required in Section 94806; meets all requirements of this article; and continues to meet all requirements of this article, including the ozone emissions limit as determined by the test procedure in Section 94805. § 94803.  Exclusions and Exemptions. (a) Industrial use: The provisions of this article do not apply to indoor air cleaning devices manufactured, advertised, marketed, labeled, and used solely for industrial use as defined in Section 94801(a)(15) above, provided that they are marketed solely through industrial supply outlets or businesses and prominently labeled as “Solely for industrial use. Potential health hazard: emits ozone.”   “Industrial use” or “industrial application” means the use of ozone in the following manner:  (A) purification of water in an industrial plant, water treatment facility, municipal water facility, or similar facility, and swimming pools and spas  (B) the destruction of microbes on produce in an agricultural processing plant, refrigerated transport truck, or related facility  (C) chemical oxidation and disinfection in the electronics, pharmaceutical, biotechnology and chemical industries  (D) bleaching and other processing purposes in the pulp and paper industry   (E) odor control from industrial stack gases or wastewater treatment facilities  (F) odor and smoke control in the hotel industry, provided no people are physically present  (G) mold remediation, provided no people are physically present  (H) fire and smoke damage remediation, provided no people are physically present  (I) odor control in the motor vehicle reconditioning and detailing industry provided no people are physically present. 

Ozone shock treatments are approved and used in various industries to sanitize, clean, and remediate odors, smoke damage, kill mold, and remove the stench of decaying organic material. The smell of rotting flesh creates a funk that sticks to all surfaces, and the only way to remove it is with an ozone shock treatment. We only sell industrial-strength ozone generators that emit ultra-high levels of ozone, 10, 20, 40 grams of ozone per hour! That is so much ozone it can in no way can it be reasonably used as an air purifier in an unoccupied room! Ozone air purifiers typically utilize MICA ozone plate technology. This older technology uses wire mesh to produce low levels of ozone, usually 300-400 milligrams per hour per ozone plate. That amount of ozone cannot get rid of odors, all it can do is freshen the air. However, when it gets cold, or if the room is too small, the ozone can build up to 1 ppm or higher and cause health issues to asthmatics or folks with reduced lung function. Every year people using ozone air purifiers (or mistaking specific types of ozone generators for air purifiers which is never an issue with our science project looking machines) are rushed off to the hospital because they have difficulty breathing. In almost all cases, the ozone machine is turned on at night, and the problems happen while people are sleeping since ozone is “self-regulating”. By self-regulating I mean that ozone makes you cough if you breath too much and if you don’t cough, no worries, you didn’t breath too

The state of California passed this law to protect their citizens from using ozone generators as air purifiers because it is true that a certain percentage of the population is not bright enough to read or follow instructions or log onto the Internet to figure out the correct way to use a device that has a fan and a filter and looks like an air purifier and produces a nice fresh scent (ozone). Every Forever Ozone machine comes with a sticker that states that 1) This is an industrial ozone shock treatment machine and 2) It is only to be used in unoccupied areas as it emits high levels of ozone. Nowhere on our website or out manual do we state that it is okay to breathe ozone or be in the area when the ozone shock treatment is being performed. The homeowner, in this case, is acting as a contractor, per our terms of service, to perform an industrial process on their own and agree to adhere to our safety suggestions and use the device only as intended, in unoccupied rooms.

Mite-Parasite Problems Getting Worse.

It seems that about a quarter of the calls we get to buy our ozone generators over the phone are from customers with some type of mite problem. Because we sell high ozone output ozone generators that are capable of producing enough ozone to a proper ozone shock treatment (and many have successfully used them to rid their living areas of all types of mites and parasites), word of mouth is leading people to our ozone generators. However, this also suggests to me that the parasite problem around the USA is getting worse. 

How does an ozone shock treatment help end a mite or parasite infestation? High ozone concentrations, over six parts per million, kill mites, parasites, and small bugs. What is our protocol for a “proper” high concentration ozone shock treatment to kill mites and parasites? 1) 1000 mg/h of ozone power for every 100 sq ft. 2) Using our proprietary “Cool-Tec” ozone generators and cycle timers to ensure that the ozone plates in our ozone generators don’t get over 100 degrees which will provide low NOx production and high o3 production over the 4-6 hour ozone shock treatment.

How often should you “shock” your living area to prevent a re-infestation from occurring? At least once a week. Because of the life cycle and breeding cycle of mites, weekly shock treatments will keep your home mite and parasite free. Simply pick a day when nobody will be home for a 4 to 6-hour span and program the timer to run during that time slot.  

Most people are accustomed to “shock” the water in their pools or spas on a regular basis to keep it clean and mold-pathogen free, but they never think of doing the same thing to the air they breathe. For this reason, tests have shown that indoor air is more polluted than outdoor air and since we spend most of our time indoors, indoor air can and does make us sick. It won’t however if you are wise and employ nature’s remedy – ozone – to keep your air parasite, mold, and pathogen-free. 

I started out selling air testing kits and air purifiers but quickly found out that the things in the air that make us sick are not addressed by air purifiers since we are continually kicking up dust (and insect feces) and no air purifier can keep up with that! Frankly, your lungs filter more dust than the best air purifier. I realized that the secret to preventing dust mite droppings from making people sick or have allergic reactions was to make the dust inert or biologically inactive. The solution: 1) ozone shock treatments to neutralize the biologically active “ingredients” in the dust. 2) Utilize a MERV 11 furnace filter. Running the HVAC fan in the “ON” position 24/7 and changing the MERV 11 filters every three weeks. That takes care of the dust issues. If you do ozone shock treatments alone the dust your breath will not make you sick, nor will you suffer from allergies. Don’t take my word for it, if you suffer from allergies or poor health, do weekly ozone shock treatments to see for yourself. If your health doesn’t improve using our protocol, we will gladly refund your purchase. 

Lastly, what is a good remedy (from the 100’s of customers I’ve spoken with) to kill the scabies mites once they do burrow under your skin? Many swear that using food grade DE (Diatomaceous Earth) mixed with grape seed extract and applied to the red, infected area works much faster and better than the doctor prescribed solutions. If you are interested in learning more about this home remedy, learn more here (click here) Just be careful. Breathing DE is not good long-term for your lungs, but I do know that using DE to kill bed bugs works, and more than a few of my customers swear by this DE – grape seed extract remedy so I’m happy to pass it along with the hopes it will help my customers. So do wear a mask when handling DE if you decide to try this protocol, and let me know if it worked for you. We’re all in this together! It’s us vs. them (big pharma – Intl Corps). Our agenda is to live healthy and drug-free, their objective seems to be the opposite (and some say to cull the population). The truth does set us free, in this case, free from bad health and from wasting money! 

HEPA AIR PURIFIERS ARE A WASTE OF MONEY

HEPA air purifiers are a waste of money. I will prove it, then show you what you need to do to improve your indoor air quality. Before starting Forever Ozone, I was an IAQ tester for an environmental engineering firm.  

  1. Table top HEPA air purifiers don’t move enough air to do the lofty job of purifying indoor air to any degree, let alone to a degree that improves indoor air quality enough to make them worth the expense!   Most HEPA air purifiers only move a few hundred cubic feet a minute of air. Your HVAC air handler on the other hand moves over 3000 cubic feet of air per minute. (CFM)  Your HVAC system is designed to change the air in your home at least two times per hour. If you’re looking for dust removal, look there, not a table top air purifier!   All you need to do is install a good MERV 11 furnace filter (only cost $5-$6 on eBay if you by 12 at a time) and run the fan in the “on” position 24/7.  HVAC system fans are energy efficient so that will only cost you around $10 a month extra electric. WARNING: Be especially weary of heavily marketed air purifiers like the “Ionic Breeze” years ago or the Molekule today that don’t offer a CADR (clean air delivery rate).  Why?  They don’t move that much air and thus can’t offer much air cleaning capabilities, outside perhaps of a small sealed chamber, lol.  
  2. HEPA air purifiers don’t kill airborne viruses, molds, or bacteria. They do trap them a small percentage of them inside of their filters, an area that is dark and sometimes moist, and guess what happens next? 
  3. HEPA air purifiers don’t sanitize surfaces and kill surface molds, bacteria, viruses, fungus, parasites, and they don’t kill dust mites. 
  4. HEPA air purifiers cause noise pollution and waste electricity, adding insult to injury.  
  5. HEPA air purifiers don’t get rid of odors or VOC’s very well, if at all.  

What is the solution?  Forever Ozone’s Cheap Air Purifier Solution that also employs carbon, UV, UVC, TiO2 Mesh, and ozone shock treatment options. (Test with a particle counter meter – 100% dust reduction)

1) “Shock” your air with high concentrations of ozone to kill all surface micro-pathogens such as molds, bacteria, viruses, etc when nobody is home. 2) Run your HVAC system 24/7 and utilize a MERV 11 filter; change it every 3 weeks (it will be black – but better a cheap filter than your lungs). 3) Install a UVC Induct system. 4) Bring in fresh as often as possible.  That’s it. Do that and your indoor air will help promote good health, not rob you of your health.  

For the ozone shock treatment, you will need enough ozone rated in milligrams per hour (mg/h) to do your entire structure at the same time. Going room by room with a small machine won’t work very well because “bad stuff” from one area will quickly leach into sanitized areas, you’ll be like a dog chasing their tail. You’ll never get it.  You have “stuff” you want to sanitize in every nook and cranny, in your duct work, in your closets, in your drawers. You want to open everything up and shock it with ozone at the same time. The industry recommends 1000 milligrams per 100 square feet but that only works if you have 10-20% humidity. At 50% humidity, ozone production is reduced by 50%. Also, trying to get rid of second hand smoke, you need 2 times the recommended amount of ozone. Say you have a 2000 square foot home with 8 foot ceilings. If you have 10-20% humidity, you can get by with 20,000 mg/h of ozone to shock the structure at tone time. However, if the humidity level is 50%, you’ll need 40,000 milligrams of ozone.  If you are trying to get ride of second hand smoke, you’ll need 80,000 milligrams to get the job done right. Our commercial solid state ballasts and 20,000 hour heavy duty ozone plates are economical enough to perform “whole house” ozone shock treatments at one time, and that’s what the doctor orders to get’r done. 

What is the difference between Forever Ozone’s proprietary solid state transformers and the Chinese transformers used in Amazon and eBay models?   Our ozone ballast – transformers have removable plates and power cords and don’t feature any high voltage wires outside of the ballast.  The Chinese ozone generators feature transformers with red high voltage wires that are glued onto non-removable ozone plates. (a shock and fire hazard)  Those are basically disposable transformers.   Our ozone plates plug right into the side of the ballast, as does the power cord. If the ballast fails, just send it in for a free replacement.

What is our shock treatment protocol?  

1. We use steel blade fans that can move 3000 to 4000 CFM of air and blow the ozone straight up towards the ceiling. Ozone is heavier than air and doing this will force the air near the roof down towards ground level where it will quickly become ozonated by the two to eight 4″ x 4″ ozone plates that produce 20,000 to 80,000 milligrams of ozone per hour and which are mounted to commercial steel blade fans. 2. We utilize  24 hour, 30 minute interval timers that allow you to schedule an ozone shock treatment while you’re away from home and turn off at least one hour before anyone re-occupies the structure.  3. Air out the house by opening all of the windows and turning the fan to blow air out of one of the bottom floor windows so that you draw fresh air into the house.  That’s it! Now all of the surfaces are disinfected, VOC’s have been destroyed, mites have been killed (and their feces neutralized) and your air is fresh and clean. 

I was an IAQ expert and offer great advice in the manuals on the proper way to do anything from get rid of second hand smoke to kill mites, mold, or just get rid of odors, any odor, skunk, rotting flesh, etc.  I also offer our customers free advice after the sale, and I answer the phone. 

If you have VOC’s or “sick home syndrome,”  an ozone shock treatment is the only solution.  Don’t waste your money on a VOC air purifier alone, they alone can’t do the job of drastically lowering your VOC levels. Why? Because they do nothing to address the chemicals leaching out (off-gassing) from the building materials, that’s why.  To accomplish that, you will need to perform several ozone shock treatments over several days or even weeks. That’s what furniture manufacturers with government contracts do. (I sold ozone generators to one such contractor)  They place their furniture in a trailer, run the ozone for a few hours on, a few hours off for about a week, then ship them off after a VOC test reveals it passes government standards. It’s interesting to me that our politicians require the furniture they buy to place in their government offices meets a higher standard for off-gas VOC’s than the what is mandated for the general public.   Actions speak louder than words, don’t they?  

VOC’s and molds are the two things you’ll find in your indoor air that make people sick.  (statistically) However, they’re not the number one indoor air allergen.  The number one indoor air allergen is dust mite feces. Dust mite feces is also tied to childhood asthma.  Dust mite feces gives homes lived in for many years that “old folk” smell. The only way to get rid of that biologically active material is with an ozone shock treatment which will also kill the dust mites! This should be done at least 4 times a year, and for sure before moving into a new home. The old tenants left behind their DNA, and god only knows what type of  biologically active material. One should bless their home with ozone before moving in to destroy all of that ‘junk.”  HEPA air purifiers don’t help with dust mite feces by the way. Why? As we move around, we kick that “crap” up. Air purifiers can’t keep up. Only sitting still for at least 30 minutes while your HVAC fan is running is the only way to remove that type of dust from the air, and the only way to make that dust inert so that you’re not taking in biologically active crap?  Perform periodic ozone shock treatments. 

Undoubtedly you’ve heard that ozone is a “toxic gas.”  That’s fake news. Ozone is oxygen. Oxygen can never be toxic. Well, strike that. In high concentrations, ozone gas is harmful to the lungs. So what. In high concentrations, drink too much water too fast, and water can kill you. Does that make water toxic? The fact remains, ozone isn’t for breathing, ozone is for sanitizing and killing the “bad stuff” in the air that makes us sick.  It does a better job of cleaning the air than any type of air purifier on the market. Again, all you have to do to address dust issues is change your furnace filter ever 3 weeks with a MERV 11 type filter, as mentioned above, and run your HVAC fan in the “on” position 24/7. That is the best “air cleaner” you can get!  If you have money, you can opt for an HVAC air scrubber that does an even better job. However, to keep mold from growing in your ducts, and to kill the  mites and neutralize their droppings nothing comes close to doing the job that ozone does, and you won’t find a better ozone generator than those found at Foreverozone.com!  I guarantee that. And the last reason to buy from us? We answer the phone and offer expert advise and great customer service. That’s something you just won’t get on Amazon or eBay. 

Perform Ozone Shock Treatment Before Moving In!

Before you move into a new place, you’d be well advise to first perform an ozone shock treatment! If you only knew how much biologically active ‘stuff’ the last people left behind, ‘stuff’ that is now airborne and going to end up in your lungs, part of your DNA (unless you do an ozone shock treatment) believe me, you’d do an ozone shock treatment first!

The simple truth is that we all shed pounds of dead skin per year, or as I like to call it, dust mite bait. Most of the dust you see floating around when a ray of light shines through is dead skin, dust mites, and dust mite droppings. If you take a flashlight and shine it 6 inches towards your open hand, you’ll see a ton of swirling dust. The problem is that dust, when you move into a new place, came from someone else, maybe even a dead person or someone with God knows what disease or negative energy, do you want that biologically active junk in your lungs? No, you don’t. Before you move in, you want to nuke all that junk with ozone and render it biologically inactive so that it won’t negatively impact your health.

Besides dead skin and mites, if you live in a humid area you’ll also have mold floating around. Also on the list of the things an ozone shock treatment will kill, besides mold, are viruses, bacteria, and off-gassing from furniture and new construction. (look up sick home syndrome) Ozone is the best solution to address those problems. However, you will be hard-pressed to find any mainstream outlets promoting ozone shock treatments. Why? It is my opinion that the Corporation that runs the USA works hand in hand with the drug makers to keep us sick by promoting things like air fresheners and other cancer-causing chemicals to freshen the air, as well as ineffective and money-wasting HEPA air filters vs. ozone. If you knew what I knew you’d be outraged and believe that the powers that be don’t care about our health or well being and might even hope we all dropped dead tomorrow ….well…maybe in a few months (after we pay our taxes, lol). I’m sorry that I sound so cynical. How about this instead. The Intl Corps first want us to spend whatever money we have saved on drugs and medicine before we check out. Better? 😉

Besides those things I listed above, there is another reason why I believe we should bless our new residence with ozone before we move in. Ozone will destroy any of the biological material (dead skin, blood, body juices, etc.) left behind by the previous owners. Years ago, an engineer who claimed to have worked on the “Philadelphia Experiment”, we’ll call him Al B, called me to buy an ozone generator to “scare away a ghost” in a relative’s home. He believed that entities from other dimensions could come back and access our dimension via left-behind DNA. Get rid of the DNA, viola! No more access to this dimension. He called me back several weeks later to let me know it worked. Ever since I’ve shared that story with dozens of folks with “haunting’s” and every time it worked. Why isn’t clear since I have no way of knowing if Al was right or wrong or whether there are other factors in play. Many times during paranormal events people claim to smell rotten eggs (sulfur) or other nasty odors, and ozone does break those things down like a shotgun and make them cease to exist, so maybe it’s that ..who knows. What I do know is that it won’t hurt to sanitize your new living area with ozone before you move in and since cleanliness is next to godliness….. it’s just a good idea whose time has come.

Dangerous Ozone Air Purifiers

Forever Ozone has been selling our “open-air” design ozone generators since 2010, and we’ve never been sued once. Why? Several reasons, but main among them is the fact our engineered and designed in the USA ozone generators do not look like air purifiers! Nobody will find one of our ozone generators on a shelf while visiting your cabin and think, hmm, it does smell kinda musty in my room, let me turn this air purifier on while I sleep”. That does happen folks. Happens dozens of times a year, mostly by elderly people visiting the musty homes of relatives, finding the ozone machines, confusing them for air purifiers, and harming their lungs by falling asleep with the ozone generator running by their side. Lastly, you can store our ozone plates away from the machine, like removing bullets from a gun and storing the rounds somewhere else. Without the ozone plates, even if plugged in, our units won’t produce ozone!

Two types of ozone generators cause problems, ozone air purifiers (Like Alpine, Ecoquest) and Chinese made ozone generators that you find on Amazon and eBay. First the ozone air purifiers. Most ozone air purifiers use MICA plates that create around 400 mg/h of ozone per hour per plate. That’s just enough to freshen the air in a 2000 sq ft home if placed in a large, open area. They look like air purifiers are often marketed as such, however, if set in a closed 100 sq ft room overnight, they can quickly elevate the ozone concentration to “shock levels”, over 4 ppm, and that amount of ozone can harm your lungs! The second type of “dangerous” ozone generator is the Chinese made units that feature a 3500 or 5000 mg/h high voltage ozone plate. They look like air purifiers, but if someone places one of these ozone air purifiers in a bedroom and falls asleep, the ozone levels can rise to unsafe levels as they sleep. If the person is a sound sleeper, that might pose a problem. Thus, every year, people are being rushed off to the emergency room for confusing ozone generators for air purifiers and turning them on right before they fall asleep, in the process giving ozone generators a bad name! California has outlawed the sale of ozone-producing air purifiers for this reason. Our ozone generators are not included in the ban because they are not ozone air purifiers! We only sell commercial ozone shock treatment machines! Quite frankly, our ozone generators look more like a science experiment than an air purifier, by design. We never want one of our ozone generators to be confused for an air purifier!

This is just another one of the reasons why I designed our Forever Ozone ozone generators with an open-air design. The other reason, maintenance. The ozone plates have to be wiped down after each use to prolong the life of the ozone plate. Nobody takes 8 tiny screws off the typical ozone generator after each use and wipes down the ozone plates, nobody! Sometimes the ozone welds those screws shut so they can’t be removed anyway. Design flaw, or is it? Chinese have been known to design things to break down and fail prematurely to keep our landfills full and their factories churning!

Here’s the thing though, if you suffer from allergies, YOU DO NEED THE POWER OF OZONE to destroy the micro-pathogens that are driving you nuts! Enter our high ozone output shock treatment ozone generators! An ozone shock treatment in an unoccupied space will not only kill the molds, pollen, viruses, bacteria, and mite droppings that are wreaking havoc on your sinuses, it will also remove odors and break down harmful chemicals that also make you sick. So you see while breathing ozone created by ozone air purifiers is low quantities isn’t a great idea (can irritate your lungs) creating ULTRA HIGH levels of ozone in an unoccupied area is exactly what the doctor ordered to sanitize and transform your sick house into a healthy air environment.

What about creating low levels of ozone to keep the air smelling fresh, is that okay? Yes, at lower levels under .05 ppm, our lungs will not get irritated (unless you suffer from asthma). However, I only use ozone to freshen the air in my home while it’s occupied if I want to get rid of cooking odors, after going #2 in the bathroom, or if I’m trying to get rid of a fly or mosquito (they can’t take even low levels of ozone). If you live near a freeway with a lot of car air pollution, adding a little ozone to your air to help break that down is probably a good idea but again, under .05 ppm. Problem is, you don’t know how much ozone you’re creating, and that’s a problem. Just use common sense. Ozone is self-regulating in that if it makes you cough or gives you a headache, you’re breathing unhealthy levels and you should exit the premise ASAP. However, if it just makes the air smell nice and fresh, then you’re okay. I like to keep an ozone generator on top of the fridge and cut it on for a few seconds at a time with a wireless on-off outlet, same with the bathroom. There I have a unit screwed up high that I can cut on for a few seconds at a time to remove let’s just say certain not so pleasant odors. Nuff said.

Our Ozone Transformers vs. Chinese Transformers

We knew that eventually the Chinese would copy our “open-air” or as we call it our “bare-bones” ozone generator design, and finally, they did.

Their idea is to stack two 5g ozone plates on top of each other and cement the red high voltage wires to those plates while allowing the high voltage to travel up and down the two columbs. This is a terrible idea for several reasons, mainly:

  1. The transformer has to sit flush (ours sit sideways for proper cooling) and this causes their transformers to get very hot.
  2. They also decided it was a good idea to electrify the the plastic mounts (columns) with high voltage electricity.
  3. They also decided to cement the red high voltage wires to the ozone plates. (ours has a removable plate) What happens when it’s time to change the plate? What happens if the red wire comes loose? What happens when the high voltage causes the plastic columbs or the plastic transformer to catch fire?

This new design needs to be changed as soon as possible to prevent problems. At the very least they should only use metal separators in the columns (common sense) and not plastic! That is rediculous. We don’t mean to help our competition but this is for the good of the ozone industry. Bad designs like this make all ozone generator manfuactures look bad in my opinion.

Our solid-state ozone generator transformer has an embedded ozone plate holder that allows for easy plug in and removal of the ozone palte. It was invented like this for 2 reasons. One, the shorter the distance between the ozone plate and the transformer the less electricity loss. Secondly, safety. The two red high voltage wires, if they touch, or come loose, can cause a fire hazard. If the solder (or in with some others such as this one cement) comes loose from the plate or white base, that live wire also presents a shock hazard. Those things are not an issue with our proprietary design.

If someone does utilize these devices, they place them on concrete and they don’t run them for very long. They’re sure to over heat in no time!

UPDATE: They took our advise and changed the column separators to metal. GOOD JOB! That helps with that issue. They still cement the wires to the ozone plates with a white cement that’s not available to consumers in the USA. Those transformers are basically disposable once the plates go bad, and based on the design, the plates are sure to crack and start sparking within no time, especially if the users run them for more than 10-20 minutes. Buyer beware!
