Hi All,

I heard that ozone generators can eliminate smoke odors from houses.
If a smoker has been living in a house for a year or so. Will this
eliminate the smoke odors? If so, can anyone recommend a place in
Houston that will rent ozone generators?

Thanks

We only use ozone generators to remove odors after everything
else that accumulates smoke film or smoke debris is cleaned or
replaced. Just using the OG by itself will not help much.

Right. The ozone doesn't penetrate deeply into fabrics and carpet.
You should also read up on ozone generators on the EPA site. Ozone in
sufficient concentration can be far worse for you than a smoke odor.
