How To Pick Ozone Generator For Smoke Odor Removal

[@casillasmichael]

Thank you for creating this video I have a tenant who smoked in her room and burned incense and I am getting the smell out using one of these lesser generators. But I appreciate that you brought up the fresh air component as I did not know that and was just planning on leaving the machine in there without giving it an oxygen source. Thank you!

[@theeabster1983]

I've been wanting to buy one of these for my basement. As well as using it for detailing. Don't have a moisture problem in my basement just a basement smell. I thank you very much for taking the time to explain some of this stuff and I'm looking forward to your next video on this

[@gatsbylight4766]

You mean you *_think_* you don't have a moisture problem in your basement. "Basement" smell doesn't happen just because the word basement has 3 vowels in it. Basement smell happens because basements have more *_moisture_* (either humidity, water, condensation, or all of the above) than upper floors of a house. 'Humidity' _is_ moisture. THEREFORE, a dehumidifier may also help odors from returning after you've removed the odors.

[@Spsz6000]

@@gatsbylight4766 was just about to say the very same thing.

[@aliterogasolini6401]

Excellent video, the most important information on this subject I’ve ever read. Honesty Integrity you are a top bloke. This is everything I need to make an INFORMED decision before buying one. Maxblaster it is then.

[@lisakeith7313]

Hi, Scott! We love your videos! Did you ever make a video on your favorite ozone generator? We wanted to make sure we didn't miss it.

[@emmanuelmeyermeyer1083]

Subscribe and click the bell and you won't miss any.

[@marioskosmidhs9454]

We love long videos....it all about the details!!!!! Thanks again Scott

[@tjoe1980]

Hey thanks for the video man!!! I have been thinking about getting one of these for my detailing buisness so this video came along at the perfect time. You definitely gave me something to think about. Thanks for all of the great info and hard work,your videos are one of kind brother!

[@ACoustaDC]

Scott, I know you probably don' care, but YT did not alert me about this video... and I am a subscriber... I think that is why the views are low.

[@Lasertrac]

Great informative and detailed video. You have a very sharing attitude. Kudos

[@AndysAutoCarePlus]

So I don’t know if I just can’t find it but did you ever make a video about which one you use? Looking into buying a better one because I have one that sits in the car and it’s not very affective but makes since after watching your videos. Thanks man.

[@CYCLEGAMER1]

Andy's Auto Care Plus same here, I don’t think he ever did it. And after looking through his videos, it doesn’t seem like he responds to the messages very well. Looks like we are on our own to figure out the rest lol.

[@bertbumble]

I’ve had several Maxblasters and have been very happy with the machine and the company. One other tech bought the Rainbow shown and it kinda fell apart. I’m not sure if he’s even using it today. He’s right about buying the most powerful you can afford and about using a hose. Ozone isn’t perfect, but it’s a tool i wouldn’t want to be without. Also, check out Beckart Enviormental for their CL02 method. Wouldn’t want to be without that either.

[@BestClipsMedia]

I'm just glad you don't repeat yourself!

[@TurnerMobileDetailing]

Are you referring to milligrams per hour instead of grams per hour?

[@timryan6478]

He kept saying grams per hour, he is off by a several orders of magnitude, its milligrams per hour.

[@arielsdv]

Yes, I heard him say grams at least "1000" times ;)

[@emmanuelmeyermeyer1083]

Please give Scott a break! He is trying to help us out and give us good info. He is a professional car detailer, That is what he is a pro at. He is not a chemistry professor. Grams or milligrams either way you get his point don't buy a weak one. Look at what he is trying to help us out with. Remove the magnifying glass please.

[@Iexposeyourlies]

bought one for 32 bucks on ebay it worked

[@gabrieldomenech8936]

Whats up Scott! Listen brother, I'm in a small pickle with a client. I recently did a full interior detail on their Range Rover to remove a very stubborn rotten yogurt smell that has been stuck in the car for months. It was spilled on the floor long ago & never cleaned up. I wiped down the entire interior with an apc, & then I noticed 90% of the smell was coming from the area in the carpet where it spilled, so I hit it with a small carpet extractor filled with an odor removing carpet cleaner. After vacuuming up the excess product, I realized the smell didn't go away. So I got a little ballsy haha and hit it with 3:1 super clean degreaser & a brush, & the smell only got more faint so I repeated that process probably 10 times in that area and the smell did not go away 100%. When I finished, the smell was gone in the interior but if I were to put my nose up to the area where it spilled, there's still a hint of yogurt smell so I know within a couple weeks the smell may come back. Would an Ozone Generator finish it off? What should I do to get rid of that smell, Scott?!?! Thank you in advance for all your help!

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

well since they didn't clean it up right away, you may have some yogurt that is now in the padding below the carpet..using the extractor may have introduced to much fluid and pushed it further into the padding below the carpet:(...ozone cant treat the padding below the carpet

[@Fauven]

Six months late, but, for me, the seats come out and I remove the carpet and clean both sides of the carpet, and the area on which the offensive area of the carpet lays. Also recommend in a vehicle that experienced a shooting.

[@Silverholic]

Any suggestion on how to calculate how long to let the machine work to disinfect the car? My goal is virus killing, not smoke removal.

[@paulfesler7052]

I live in a beautiful old plantation house up on a hill overlooking the water but I hate it but it has creosote in the crawl space. Any advice on how to listen to creosote smell especially during the hot summers? Perhaps which device would work best

[@alinvlaic191]

What do you think about Airthereal 10.000mg ? 🙏🏻

[@davidpointer1201]

QUESTION do you mean 20,000 mg per hour? or actually 20,000 grams per hour?

[@CSHayes]

Another great video Scott. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!

[@moeeeee99]

Love the videos appreciate the advice and tips. I’ve Ben wondering how do you detail a sport car front bumper with lots of holes and crevices?

[@michaelbrock6222]

hi does the maxblaster really work

[@MyGuyKirby]

Interesting and hope to hear more on this. I read in detailing forums that use of the Ozone device might be harmful to leather interiors if used too long. Have you any experience with the treatment times impacting the interior?

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

thomkirby stay away from forums because it's filled with really bad information! Guys seeing issues are guys using small machines and leaving them in the cars for hours or even overnight, remember how I mentioned that if the machine can't draw fresh air? Well many inexperienced detailers do this daily and produce harmful gases, and guess what they blame the machine and never look at their own ignorance:) Honestly many shouldn't be using these machines without knowledge and training but unfortunately that doesn't happen in the real world!

[@MyGuyKirby]

So true. I was worried when many stated they bought their units on Amazon for less than $100 and they really do work! This comment was made and it supports your comment: Forum thread goes like this: 8-9 hr ? If memory recalls, I think the general rule was 1-2 Hr MAX. Anything like 8 hrs was harmful to the interior... So for those are in the know, I'd be curious Let's say 2 Hrs 1 Session. Running 9 Hrs is not good for the Interior. [end of comment] Thanks Scott, I love the world you live in and share with us all. PS: The forum comments indicate the special fee for this can be from $125/session and up depending upon the size of the vehicle.

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

thomkirby and it's amazing that they would charge 125 dollars! Reversing years of smoking in a car and 125 dollars is less than what the smoker spends a month on cigarettes! Talk about so called professionals hurting themselves and the industry plus they don't guarantee their work if the smell was to return. My industry is filled with morons but it's ok because I just wait them out because in less than a year they will be out of business!

[@lindabean6710]

​@@MyGuyKirbyI had a guy come to give me an estimate for a small mold problem (I can't smell but we found where the moisture was and cleaned it up but I can smell the musty and I react to it)and he told me he's going to leave it in my vehicle for 15 to 20 hours, and that's when I knew that I knew more than he did, and that was alarming.

[@NikosPer]

Scott i have some questions , after reading several articles about the production of ozone, almost everybody says NOT to use it with high humidity , the 2 basic reasons are : it can damage the plates faster and the most important is that if there is humidity above 60% it produces gases - nitro gases or smthing- that can harm plastics/ leather and the end user of the car. So.....if you have the machine outside in a humid day you introducing harmful nitro-gases+O3 inside the car, whereas if you treat the car with a dehumidifier after the cleaning is done And you use an interior machine wouldn't be better that way? that was my thought without been a master in this subject but i am seeking for the best solution, please explain your thoughts in this...Cheers!

[@turbotona25]

Does ozone hurt any of the materials like plastic and rubber in the car?

[@BLAINE301]

Yes long exposure can make things brittle

[@matthewbrown3130]

Note: You mistakenly are saying "grams per hour" when you really mean "milligrams per hour" (1,000 times less)

[@minh4835]

You sound like you know what you're talking about until you start talking about your machine making 20,000 grams of O3. It makes maybe 20,000 mg. of O3. There's a big difference btw mg. and grams. Just saying.

[@fartrellcluggins9597]

Do you or have you run the car with the fan blowing on recirc when using an ozone generator? If so, did it work better?

[@BLACKHOMEH2]

Thata is ad for the master blaster device all ozone generator work but the hit you talk about will cost you %500 double the price of amazon device for use to cara small ones less than 100$ will do the job

[@mdp4196]

Hey Scott, not really related to this video but are you planning on trying out the new 40V Worx Hydroshot?

[@maxdorito]

Hello Scott, We picked up an Oasis Plus ozone generator a little while back based on a suggestion from our supplier, which I'm now reading does only 2.65 grams/ hr, where as this Maxblaster is doing 20 grams/hr! The Oasis is touted as a professional device and sells for top dollar, but I have to say it does a "ok" job at killing the smoke smell, we work on beat up dealership cars so I'm always looking for the best tool possible to make our lives easier. How do you like the Maxblaster? I may have to order it! That power output sounds crazy and the price is reasonable too

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

Vito Di Vita yes many machines are filled with hype and just because it says professional use or commercial use is actually a huge joke in the industry. Maxblaster is a great machine for SHOCK TREATMENT but with that said you have to maintain them diligently. Your outside temperature and humidity plays a big part as well as I have discussed in other videos about odor removal and ozone machines. Air movement is also crucial with ozone generator, maxblaster is extremely effective but if outside temperature and humidity is high the fan in the maxblaster could make you need to run the machine longer than just a few hours so that has to be understood as well.

[@pgadrmer1]

Hello Scott, I was wondering if you have chosen your "go too" Ozone machine. I called you about a month and a half ago and you were talking about how you use yours in your business and thats where we got cut off. I hope you will share with us your machine and what you charge your customers. Thanks for all the great work. I am sure it is a lot harder and time consuming than we all realize. Just an FYI I am the one that had the heart transplant if that helps jog your memory. Thanks again.

[@toddbrown3055]

I have the maxblaster too. Works great

[@austinwoodill4215]

Hi Scott. What maxblaster do you use the residential,pro commercial , or pro-g expert

[@marciof8167]

I had one those machines, but I tell you: you gonna pay around $200 and up, depends what kind model. But in my experience I not happy at all ! The plates are damaged easily! I used about 3 or 4 times and the plates stop doing ozone! No more purp color inside!!! I cleaned, but the plate has a lot of burns marcas around. So maxeblaster are no good!

[@ryanglaser5336]

Buy new plates, they're consumable

[@corygoulette2303]

You need to seal the area off and sometimes need more then one treatment

[@GeekBarbara]

Since I can't seem to get a hold of you via text or phone call, I decided to reach you here. I hope you can still help me with my car that still has smoke smell on the air conditioner after your treatment three weeks ago.

[@Bugin1967]

You can use Ozone machine turn your fan on in recirculation on your car make sure it’s running on high and then use Ozone machine will help with smells trapped in your Vent system

[@kaasym1]

I don't recommend running overnight I have a nice powered machine and 30 min does the trick

[@FOTruth]

Pretty sure you meant "milligrams" per hour. I have not seen any ozone generators that operate at even 100 grams per hour.

[@darrenboucher2109]

Great video I was looking today to buy one today this video came in handy thanks witch one would recommend buying scott

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

Darren Boucher this video gave you information to help you make an informed decision based on the things discussed. What's best to me May not be the best to you. Like I said make sure it can be outside the car when used plus has SHOCK TREATMENT ABILITY. I will make a video soon of a machine I really like but as stated in the video I didn't have it available to me when filming this video, but do your research based on the points discussed in this video and you should be able to find a generator that's best for you and your budget

[@darrenboucher2109]

Dallas Paint Correction & Auto Detailing ok thanks Scott will look at all the points you mentioned in the video before buying once again great video

[@ClownWhisper]

I would really really really like to hear someone rationalize this hole punch hypothesis because we're moving the source of a contamination doesn't take anything other than steady persistent gas generation it does not require this mythical punch that doesn't make any sense whatsoever. If you were dealing with something living that or dead that was generating more thiols the longer it lays there yes then possibly an enormous blast of gas could destroy the source better but I'm playing The Devil's Advocate here. As I'm talking and typing I'm shaking my head no it really doesn't make sense. There's no magical punch needed for this Ozone gas overtime will destroy the source of any thiol generation

[@sommasculpture]

Do these kill mold?

[@itsjustrenee1320]

It won't bite my ear off will it?

[@davidpointer1201]

update: its Mg, not grams

[@MrBod4life]

CAN THESE GENERATORS HARM RUBBER?

[@dennisthemenance5433]

I'd rather Pay a Guy , like yourself, to do this ..I Will Clean my Newer-Used car I just bought, pretty Much Like you say to do and then? Give it a Month or So and then Have a Deatialer use his Ozone Machine on it for a Few Hours and done deal..Yes he uses it ouktside and Pumps the O# into it.. I come back 8 hrs later and its done.. Cost $150 for just doing the Ozone ordeal.. Odds are, you only need to have it done after iyou buy a Used car, (which is about every 5 yrs for me) and add $2-300 to have it done, right? As Long as you do the other cleaning yourself, Udderwise? Best plan on $3-400 ( I bet Scot charges $4-500) Thank you.

[@appletree8441]

Use two Max Blasters

[@GM-cm3qc]

great video !!! i hope you do the follow up soon. thank you

[@verdantacres4460]

Thank you

[@911mykid]

Can’t find a machine that produces 4lbs of ozone an hour, just like what you say you need.. 😐

[@corygoulette2303]

FYI , killing Odor and mold requires .5-2.0 g per 100sq ft . 10k mg is BIG TIME OVER KILL for a car ! You’ll wind up making the material in the car permanently smelling like ozone which is not good !

[@JeSsE-qe5tl]

This pro edition recommends LIGHT- 45 minutes MEDIUM- 90 minutes STRONG- 3Hours You think this is still too much?

[@tripshobbies2810]

20k grams. maybe you mean mg? Cause 20 kilograms of gas is a metric shit load of O3.

[@ernestoestrada9358]

Talk, talk, talk. In one of his videos he says that he don't use ozone genetators. That the only way to get rid of smoke is by cleaning all ashes from the car. Now he is getting profit from his videos. Now ozone is good!

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

What bothers you the most, the fact I make more money than most and perhaps yourself? I don't sell ozone machines by the way so I can't profit by talking about them.

[@BackstageChief]

I'm willing to bet dude doesn't really know shit about this lol

[@valipenet]

Are you talking grams or milligrams?! 20000 gram/hour... I don't think so

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

Vali F. Mg/h..sorry about the confusion

[@ernestoestrada9358]

Is mg not grams.

[@jershaus]

I wish youd give model numbers and prices. I dont know id this is a youtube thing, but it sucks.

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

Jerry Peterson well again this video was not about WHAT'S the best ozone generator. I discussed the features you should be looking for when it comes to you making a decision of purchasing a generator yourself. I also stated I will make a video in the future about the best ozone generator I have used. I see no reason to give you part numbers or model because again this video was about shock treatment and what that actually means plus look for a machine that can sit outside the vehicle during the treatment. Google is an amazing source for research but I promise to give part numbers and model once I make a video claiming the best ozone generator I have used:)

[@rsingh6595]

milligrams

[@corygoulette2303]

Right , this guy clearly knows what he’s talking about huh !? Lol .... 20k grams of ozone . It’s the biggest ozone gen ever made lol

[@范無救-w3x]

20,000 grams per hour? that's equivalent to squeezing out 1 human baby per hour. i hope there's a dose of artistic license when maxblaster wrote that. it might kill off every living thing within a 10 mile radius.

[@darthrevan.gaming327]

Americans do not use the metric system so his G are actually MG.

[@MaxBlasterUSA]

Correct. I think he meant to say milligrams per hour.

[@christschool]

They produce 20,000 micrograms, not 20,000 grams. This guy doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. 20,000 micrograms is barely anything.
