What regulations cover ozone generators?
Both the Food and Drugs Act (FDA) and the Pest Control Products Act (PCPA) cover ozone generators. The claimed purpose or representation, as well as where and how the device is used determines which regulations apply. In order to avoid being subject to regulation under the Food and Drugs Act and/or the Pest Control Products Act, ozone generators continue to be marketed in Canada as “air cleaners” or “pollution control devices” without making medical or biocidal claims or being marked for medical or biocidal purpose or use.
