Ozone layer is important to us as a protective sunscreen that shields us from high levels of ultra violet rays. In the higher layers of the atmosphere, it is an advantage. At ground level, it can be harmful to plants, animals and humans. Ozone exposure influences pulmonary function, lung inflammation and other respiratory symptoms. Studies show that ozone effects on human health are independent of the effects of other pollutants.
Manufacturers of the ozone air purifier claim that ozone will render almost every chemical contaminant harmless by producing a chemical reaction whose only by-products are carbon dioxide, oxygen and water. Others say that this is deceptive. When using an ozone generator, determine that it will not result in ozone concentrations that exceed public health standards. There are factors that need to be considered. The size of the space and whether it is a well ventilated room or enclosed, is one. The proximity of the person or persons in the room to the ozone air purifier is another factor.
