Can Neo-Tec Ionizer purifiers produce excessive ozone levels?
No. They are designed to produce between 0.02 ppm and 0.04 (max) ppm. This is within FDA and OSHA safety standards of 0.05 ppm. At this level, the ozone will be safe, effective, and pleasant, and may only be barely detectable. Ozone will not reach a point where it could be considered even a minor lung irritant until it reaches 0.1 to 0.2 ppm. Neo-Tec Ionizer purifiers stay within the 0.04 ppm level since they are designed to cover a single room or open area, rather than a large part, or all of the home. Since they only attempt to provide enough ozone for a smaller area, there is no adverse consequence if the ozone does becomes trapped in a single room. The ozone level will still be appropriate for the smaller space. Larger capacity ozone air purifiers (rated to cover up to 4000 sq. ft.) try to produce a level of around 0.04 ppm for a large part of the home. However, the ozone usually becomes trapped within a certain section of the home, so the ozone level of a certain area can become t
