Not that I know of - I'd call the customer service number and ask, or e-mail them.

I don't smell ozone like I did when I had ionic breezes... not sure, though. This product DOES really work!

no, none. the ozone is produced electronically and fan forced. Dont stay in house when using ! Do not breathe the ozone. Give it a couple of hours to dissipate and open windows when u return. PS Ozone is destructive to rubber like belts in electronics items such as VCR, and possibly some materials like some plastics. I recommend covering TV's.

There is no ozone button in the unit and HF 707 doesn't produce any ozone, it just produces warm or cool mist. Their is an Ion button which gives the option to turn negative ion "ON" or "OFF" for air purification.

I have no idea, Pat. I use it in my greenhouse full of orchids. I don't thinkmy orchids care about ozone and I've never used it. The owner's manual shouldgive you instructions on its use.

All electric appliances emit ozone, however this unit (like many) has been approved by the state of California as being ozone safe, and they have very stringent rules. I believe that this is called being CARB approved. As such it is safe for use in the home, and anyone who says otherwise should contact the state of California and get an earful!

Ozone is not emitted, it is created through a photochemical reaction at 240 nm, which is in the UV-C range. It is created back to oxygen at 320 nm.

THANK YOU! I am so excited to see this. I bought it a year ago, but turned it off month ago because I hated the smell it produced. I wondered if the smell was ozone, but it's not supposed to produce ozone. However, a friend said that the ionization (the PlasmaWave part) turns oxygen into ozone, so...it does produce ozone. Glad to know that I can turn off the PlasmaWave. I'm going to clean it out and start it up again and see if it still produces that unpleasant smell.

No, it does not generate ozone when the Plasmacluster ion function switch is on. I have had the unit running constantly since I purchased it a few months ago & not smelled anything.

Yes it does.. it has a ball for water or defused air and a cylindrical one for either air or oil or water.. l have had my unit for about 2 weeks now and have used it quite a bit to make water and fresh in the air.. for a little unit it does well and keeps the level of ozone low enough and with a maximum 30 second timer so u don't end up making your self sick from it..

Cup your hand over it for a few seconds while pluged in. You should be able to smell the ozone in your hand when u remove it

Yes the ozone can be shut off as well as the ion generator in which air cleaner will take impurities out of the air by the use of the three air filters. There is great control when using this unit.

Per Consumer Reports, it does emit ozone. I did not order the right size and so because of the error in sizing and the ozone issue I ended up returning it and going with the Lennox Pure Air (correctly sized!) which does not have the ozone issue-it's also very highly rated by Consumer Reports. We've had the Lennox for a little over a year and it's made a big difference.

hi, the only reason it indicated not to is because some people don't like the smell of ozone it produces, or some has allergic reaction to it. but if you are ok with that, you can do so.

Per the flyer for this product in the link I'm including below(if amazon will allow the link), on page 2 it says "Produces no ozone, fumes or other secondary contaminants"http://jonecacorporation.com/UVC_Air_Sanitizer/UVCAIR.pdf

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.

not that i can tell or smell and it ozone is not mentioned on the ad for this product, it does, however, provide a really strong shower that also saves water, so if you like a strong shower for muscle soreness, etc., it's great for that. i'm not sure if the oxygen that is generated from the shower reaches the skin and muscle tissue or if the oxygen is meant as a generator of more water pressure. wish i knew though, because the more oxygen the better and it's why i originally purchased this item.
