Ozone has been used to purify municipal water supplies for years, and for highly contaminated areas such as bars or salons, ozone can be very effective in cleaning the air. Even though most ozone air purifiers release ozone that is well below the allowed amount as established by the government, caution should be taken if you suffer from respiratory problems, as even minute amounts ozone gas may worsen symptoms. With that in mind, if you are an allergy sufferer or asthma sufferer, look for air purifiers with HEPA filters instead.
