Shock treatments

Why are UV ozone generators a better choice than corona discharge ozone generators?

(For all air or surface sterilization Shock treatment applications such as MOLD, Smoke, Fire odors, musty smells, flood odor, protein decomposition or death odor, germ and virus remediation, etc.)

The Biggest difference between corona discharge and UV ozone generation methods is that UV ozone generators have stable ozone output levels throughout humidity ranges, while the output of corona discharge ozone generators is significantly reduced by just moderate humidity levels such as 40–70% (ozone output is reduced by approx. 40-70% with 40-70% humidity). In addition, with UV ozone generators, the cleaning requirement is almost eliminated compared to corona discharge ozone generators. Also, the ozone produced from a UV ozone generator is cleaner (no nitric acids) and smells better than ozone produced from corona discharge machines, and is just as powerful and often more powerful as ozone produced by corona discharge ozone generators.
UV ozone generator models include UV PRO 550, UV PRO 550AT, UV PRO 1100AT, UV PRO 2800, UV PRO 4000, and UV PRO 6800

Ambient Air (the air we breathe) contains 21% oxygen, 78% nitrogen, 0.9% argon and 0.1% other gases.

Unlike Corona Discharge ambient air ozone generators, ozone generators that use oxygen for feed gas, or use UV ozone generation greatly increase and obtain consistent high ozone outputs.  Using oxygen, or an oxygen concentrator, or a UV ozone producing system like the UV PRO 2800, will result in consistent high level ozone output - unaffected by the normal variables that usually reduce outputs of corona discharge ambient air ozone generators, such as humidity.

Using oxygen instead of ambient air will allow the ozone generator to produce up to 4 times as much ozone*.  Using oxygen also eliminates cleaning and maintenance.  Cleaning and maintenance will be necessary for all ambient air ozone generators that do not use oxygen, or an electronic air drier - regardless of claims.  The new UV PRO 550, UV PRO 2800, UV PRO 4000 or NEW! Ultra-High powered UV PRO 6800 requires very little maintenance - only requiring that ozone producing tubes be wiped down with rubbing alcohol after 6 months of continuous use. 

*It is not necessary to convert to oxygen fed ozone generator systems for air treatment applications (MOLD, ODOR; protein decomposition, SMOKE, Pet odor and other air / surface sterilization purification applications).  Oxygen is used for ozone generator systems designed for waste water treatment, pharmaceutical, and other oxidation applications.

Popular Ozone Generator

Used by leading fire smoke flood mold odor remediation companies:

High powered UV PRO 6800, UV PRO 4000, and UV PRO 2800 Ozone Generators.  Use for serious restoration work, commercial applications, manufacturing, barns, etc.  Read why UV ozone generators outperform units rated higher.

The UV PRO 2800 is designed for use as a heavy duty Ozone shock treatment tool.  In higher humidity, the UV PRO 2800 exceeds the ozone output of the PRO 5,000.  (Read the product description to understand why).

Ideal for use in fire / flood restoration, crime scene cleanup (protein decomposition), garbage compactors, garbage transfer stations, heavy restoration, auto detailing, all heavy odor remediation tasks, food service sterilization packaging / manufacturing, bacteria or mold odors Home/ Commercial decontamination, purifying rooms in hotels and for killing mold, and more.
