What is ozonation?

What is ozonation? As time goes by, the awareness of what can be harmful to our health is growing. We know how much pollution circulates in the air, and not necessarily in a crowded city. A long stay in a given room of a sick person leaves a lot of microorganisms here – in furniture, small appliances, but also in the floor, walls and ceiling. There are people who neglect their apartments or even collect garbage, which contributes to the destruction of the interior.

Buildings left alone for a long time also undergo some degradation. They are not ventilated, heated or cleaned. Therefore, various microorganisms, fungi, molds and ordinary moisture accumulate here. Are these rooms beyond repair? Do you always have to use strong chemicals to restore them to a usable condition so that they are safe for users? Of course! The ozonation of the rooms will come in handy here.

What is ozonation and why is it worth using this method to disinfect the interior?

In ozonation, ozone is used as an active agent. Ozone is a type of oxygen, the molecule of which consists of 3 atoms instead of 2. The third atom reacts with various substances and breaks them down. Thanks to this, it removes, for example, microorganisms that are dangerous to human health, but it can also remove unpleasant odors embedded in walls, floors or furniture, which, however, are still good to use. At the same time, ozone is environmentally friendly – it is not a chemical substance whose decay takes a very long time, at the same time having a negative effect on nature. Ozonation itself is not dangerous to humans, as long as it is entrusted to a specialized company that knows what concentration of ozone is necessary for disinfection, while being safe for humans. However, you should take some precautions to be sure.

When are offices ozonated?

Offices should be ozonated, e.g. after each season of increased influenza illnesses – they are usually at their greatest intensity in autumn and early spring. Even more so if the team also had rare and unusual diseases that should not occur in our geographical area – such as measles or diseases typical of the equatorial climate. Office disinfection in such cases is highly recommended. But what to do so that the whole action does not exclude all offices from use, e.g. for a week? It is difficult to force the entire team to take a vacation in November or March or, even worse, to send everyone on unpaid leave. Not every company can afford a few days of completely unproductive time when it does not earn money. That is why it is worth choosing ozonisation of offices. For example, you can make an appointment for Saturday or late afternoon on Friday – depending on how many interiors are to be subject to the whole action. Then, after the disinfection is completed, no one will stay in the offices for at least 24 hours. This is the right time to ventilate the building and clean it. Employees can safely return to their jobs on Monday. And they will definitely feel the difference on the plus side. Not only will dangerous microbes be removed, but also possibly unpleasant odors that have accumulated in offices for years. Although the offices are cleaned regularly, many odors stick so strongly, for example, to carpets, that after some time they stay here permanently. Only its removal makes a difference, and a positive one at that. after the disinfection is completed, no one will stay in the offices for at least 24 hours.  so strongly, for example, to carpets, that after some time they stay here permanently.

Disinfection by ozonation not only for business interiors

Ozonation works well in private homes and apartments. When the building has been empty for a long time, someone has been sick in it for a long time or it requires disinfection for some other reason, ozonation will be a great solution here. It lasts relatively short, does not leave any unpleasant, acrid odors or residues of chemical substances that are hazardous to health. No later than 24 hours after ozonation, the apartment is completely fit for use and safe for residents. Ozonation of the apartment is becoming an increasingly popular way of cleaning apartments from microbes and unpleasant odors. It’s not only about its quick execution and lack of harmfulness, but also about the price. When it comes to ozonation, the price list is usually related to the size of the area to be treated. In the case of interiors larger than any vehicles (cars, buses, etc.), ozonisation companies price the order for each square meter. It happens that the contractor even offers an individual valuation, e.g. in the case of ozonation of several vehicles or a large house in its entirety, in one fell swoop. As more and more companies deal with ozonation, the cost of the service even decreases a bit. And at the same time – due to the growing competition – contractors are increasingly trying to do their job as best as possible. Thanks to this, they can count on recommendations from their clients. Before ordering ozonation, it is worth comparing opinions on contractors and taking a look at their price lists. On this basis, you can choose the best contractor in your area. that the contractor even offers an individual valuation, e.g. in the case of ozonation of several vehicles or a large house in its entirety, in one fell swoop.
