According to the FDA (U.S. Food & Drug Administration) Ozone generators and ionizers currently on the market generate ozone by design or as a byproduct. Since exposure to ozone above certain concentration can be injurious to health, please read carefully what FDA has to say.

Some texts:

“Ozone is a toxic gas with no known useful medical application in  specific, adjunctive, or preventive therapy. In order for ozone to be  effective as a germicide, it must be present in a concentration far  greater than that which can be safely tolerated by man and animals.”

“Although undesirable physiological effects on the central nervous system, heart, and vision have been reported, the predominant physiological effect of ozone is primary irritation of the mucous membranes. Inhalation of ozone can cause sufficient irritation to the lungs to result in pulmonary edema. The onset of pulmonary edema is usually delayed for some hours after exposure; thus, symptomatic response is not a reliable warning of exposure to toxic concentrations of ozone. Since olfactory fatigue develops readily, the odor of ozone is not a reliable index of atmospheric ozone concentration.”

Can your family be safe at home with an Ozone generator?

Ask your veterinarian about the risks of Ozone and why it can harm your birds sensitive respiratory system.

Ozone destroys lung tissue, triggers asthma and other respiratory diseases. Customers should check EPA and FDA for additional articles and warnings about air purifiers that generate ozone.

Customers must make sure that the air purifier they select does not generate ozone (directly or as a byproduct). Independent ozone tests should be requested from all manufacturers.
