Default Do ozone generators really kill mold spores?

This is pretty much my understanding of it as well. *Mold abatement isn't accomplished
by plugging in an appliance.


There is also the degradation of certain items from the oxidative ozone molecule, which
can release a plethora of toxic compounds into your living space, and cause odors.

The unit is plugged in and the house is left unoccupied for a couple of days.
Upon return the unit is turned off and the house is aired out for a couple of
hours. *Maximum exposure time to the ozone is maybe two minutes. *It's
completely harmless if used properly.

It does kill all of the mold, but the underlying cause still needs to be addressed.


No its not harmless 03 is an oxidant, many things oxidise, tire rot
for example is oxidation. You are thinking ozone generator sales
pitch, not what ozone does.
