A01: YES! Ozone is safe and environmentally friendly. The ozone produced with our UV ozone generators will not damage home furnishings and will not leave residue. Ozone will not harm foods and is approved by the FDA as a food preservative because of its capability to kill odors from bacteria and molds. When ozone is breathed in it can be hazardous to your health—that is why we require all people, pets, and plants to vacate after setup. Once the treatment is complete the air is safe and clean.
