Is ozone deodorising all its cracked up to be?

What equipment are people using? What treatment methods are best. Most importantly, what should I expect to charge for the service?

Thanks in advance.
 
If I were to choose between fogging and ozone, right now I would choose ozone. I guess I like the idea of a machine, not me, doing the work. While I think ozone is a good thing, I can't be too sure because there is way too much hype. However, if you do charge for the service I would go with something like $50/hour.
I have also found that Ozone has not been approved by the EPA and can be very harmfull to humans, pets, plants, and art work in concentrated bursts. And the only way to disinfect a space is too exceed the legal limit. The government sems to conclude that, after alot of testing, ozone machines do not do what they are marketed to do.

What I would like to know is if the machines will permanently deoderize a car or room or if it is just temporary. In the latter case I would go with a fogger system. Personally I will buy the ozone machine and follow with the fogger.

I may just be getting one of these tomorrow. The company seems educated and the customer service will be great. It comes with a 2 year warranty and is supposed to be a hassle free, long lasting unit
 
I have a mobile pro plus made by RGF environmental. It is an ozone machine. I think it works great. I run it in a car for 15-20 minutes and it gets rid of every smell or odor. I am not sure if it is completely permanent, but I just run it again when the customer comes back for something. I also use it in my apartment. In that size space I run it for an hour. The air in the space you are deodorizing has to be completely "turned over". The ozone will cause a little bit of throat irritation if you sit there and breath for a while in the space you are treating.
 
I used to manage a hotel and we used ozone machines in the rooms. Ozone machines are okay as long as you aren't sitting in the car while the machine is running. Put it in the car for 10-15 with the windows up, remove the machine and let the car air out for a few minutes. They do a good job of removing most odors as long as you have removed the source of the odor. For instance, if you don't remove the mildew, then the mildew odor will return.
