Can ozone be dangerous?
A. Yes, but only when occurring in extremely high concentrations – much higher than what a Biozone air purifier is capable of producing. Ozone is much like just about any other element in that it has its range of effects. It is harmless or useful at moderate concentrations, but harmful at extremely high levels. For example, chlorine, an extremely powerful sanitizing agent, can be extremely dangerous if misused. However, we have learned to use it appropriately and thus can enjoy things like safe water in our swimming pools and even from our tap (you might prefer an UltraPure Water Purifier, however!) Biozone Air Purification Units will not produce ozone at a level higher than what is considered healthy in outdoor settings – generally not more than .04 ppm when the unit is used in the appropriate size space (see: Safe Ozone Levels – Guaranteed), Ozone levels produced as part of the Biozone Purifying Plasma do not surpass the Federal Government safety guideline of 0.05 – 0.06 ppm. In fact
A Yes, but only when occurring in extremely high concentrations – levels that due to the SafeZone™ Technology, a Biozone® Air Purifier is incapable of producing. The Federal Government and other agencies have set safety guidelines, Ozone concentrations of 0.05 – 0.10 ppm. The Biozone® and the Wein air purifiers CANNOT produce higher than 0.05 ppm. Reports and studies that raise questions about the safety of ozone deal with ozone levels at or above the recommended concentrations.
