Ozone is a strong oxidant, and a gas. That's how it destroys odors,
and also why it is an irritant, especially for the lungs. If your
wifeis allergic to cigarette smoke, ozone might NOT be very good for
her, unless the ozone is left to react with the smoke and then
immediately exhausted.

It's not necessary to exhaust ozone. It decomposes into plain oxygen in
minutes.

Since it is a toxic oxidant and irritant, AND because his wife is rather
sensitive to air borne irritants, I'd strongly suggest he doesn't let it
accumulate AT ALL in his house.

Also, minutes may not be fast enough (I am used to dealing with
biological compounds that decompose in seconds, but I do know from
experience how strong their actions can be). You remember my rants about
prostaglandins, thromboxane and aspirin.
