does this model produce ozone

Hi Mark. It does not emit ozone. This model uses both HEPA and a carbon filter.

I'm going to copy and paste part of the product description here:"4. PlasmaTRUE technology: creates an ionized field to help safely remove airborne pollutants"Yes it does create ozone and the size of the ozone, which is 0.05 ppm, does not matter here. When you have this device running with that plasmatrue technology all the time you have to worried is about the concentration of ozone in the area, quantity, and that is what it can be hazardous for your help.Please copy and paste this link and learn more: http://urbanclinic.net/2011/08/13/what-you-need-to-know-about-ozone-and-air-purifiers/ I'm going to copy and paste part of the product description here:"4.

Text on one of the product labels from product description:"CARB (CAlifornia Air Resource Board)The Fellowes AeraMax Air Purifiers are certified by the California Air Resource Board. To be certified, the Fellowes AeraMax Air Purifiers were tested for electrical safety and ozone emissions, and met the ozone emission concentration limit of 0.050 parts per million."My understanding is, that if one has asthma or other lung disorder, you should not use any "air purifiers" as they all produce ozone.

I don't see about "ozone" in their specifications my advice to you is call Fellowes Customer Service and ask them directly, I bought 2 of this for my daughters since they have cats they both swear that you can feel the difference with this air purifier.

I don't think so but, you can shut off the ionizer function which, I think shuts off the ozone production. Check the Oreck website for specifics.

No. I believe it has an ionizer, but does not produce Ozone. I used it in a Large Yukon and did not notice that it ever did anything to help. It may work better in a Honda Civic.

Not really, but here is EPA's stand on how ozone generating devices are being sold as air purifiers... http://www.epa.gov/iaq/pubs/ozonegen.html

This is from another website:Q: Does the AirTamer produce dangerous levels of ozone?A: No. AirTamer produces NO measurable amount of ozone.

The photocatalytic process does produce a small amount of ozone, but I too am wondering how much is produced by this specific model. It should not be as much as the ionizing filters produce.

Sorry I am unable to answer the question as to whether it emits ozone, I don't know how I could measure this. We used an electrostatic air cleaner about 25 years ago, so I am sure they have changed quite a bit since then, so I probably cannot be a good judge of this either.

Some air cleaners use ozone. However, this air purifier uses a filter. The only way that it can yield ozone is if there was an electrical problem causing arcing. I would say that all electrical products run this extremely low risk, and it has nothing to do with the air filtering functionality of this particular product. Also, if there was arcing, my feeling is that hazard due to ozone is the least of your concerns. Fire would be a real risk.

Yes, when you turn the ozone up to the highest level, the ozone will not turn off until you do so manually. You can also use the AWAY mode which will turn the ozone up to the highest level, and run it on the units built in timer.

Based on my research before buying this system, ionic systems produce ozone. This one simply recirculates the air through a filter. The quality of filter you put in it is up to you after your original one expires. This unit tells you how much filter life is left.

If it is still making the little electric arc then it is making ozone. Just blow out any dust from the machine that plugs air flow.

Ozone system has a ozone generator to help kill bacteria in the water. But it only works on "boost" cycle. Just a fyi.

Yes, you will notice an " ozone" smell. It is not unpleasant and gets rid of cooking odors. I think it freshens the house
1036393
Yes it does, but I don't use it because of my pets. It puts the ozone on very high setting.

You might have to replace the ceramic plates. there might be a hairline crack in one and that would affect the ozone production.

This unit uses the HEPA filter, not the ionizing filter, so no ozone from this model.

You can use the O3, once you set it up just leave the kitchen and wait 10 more minutes after it ends its cycle. You can come back once the ozone is misspended.
