We stayed at a nice Airbnb last month. When we walked in the perfume smell knocked us over. There were three of the plug in units, we had to unplug while we were there because it was so over powering (and it’s toxic). I wish more people realized the smell of clean is no smell!
Right? A client gave me an entire gift basket of those plug-in smelly perfume thingies. It was the sweetest gesture. And I've got really bad sensitivities to those as well. I gave them all away as door prizes in a contest. LOL. 👏👏👏
I didn't even know these machines existed, I always thought if you can't open a window you're stuck with the odors. Thank you for the detailed reviews!
In all seriousness, this was an incredible review! This was beyond informative. I am so grateful I found this channel. Such a pleasant and friendly energy. Thank you for posting this.
So much great information. Your voice is so smooth when you present this material. Anyhow I just moved into a 1200 sq foot house that is all open. I also have a dog 🐶 who sleeps with me. I was hoping to be able to bring my plants in the winter ❄️ but I guess they would die if I try the ozone machines. Are the others, like the HEPA filters safe for pets, people and plants. I’m going to make a list of all of these to see what works best for me. Again, thank you for this awesome information.
My husband caught me binge watching your Chanel. Next he’s sitting and we’re both caught up in the TH-cam on our TV ( move over Netflix!) He just looked flabbergasted when you showed something on the screen, I went, “oh, wow!” Just then you looked at the audience and said, yeah, I know!” It looked like we were actually talking! It was perfect timing! I am now sitting with my foot elevated and iced after a foot surgery. I’m relaxed by your videos and I’ve bought new gadgets waiting for the day I’m allowed to bear weight on my foot! If I weren’t a nurse, I’d have been happy being a house cleaner! Love your channnel!
LOL. What an awesome story. This just made my day. Not the part about your foot being all busted up, but about us having a conversation through the TV. Thanks for watching and I sure hope you feel better soon. 🙏
We've been using the Levoit purifiers in every room since we moved to our new home and found out our kids have asthma from all the allergens where we live. I love them and they make a difference. I didn't know about the plug ins for hotels and travel. Thank you for the information and your wonderful channel.
Thanks, Julie for watching and for taking the time out to drop me a line. I love that you have air purifiers in your home for the better breathing capacity of your family. I love hearing solutions people find that makes life better. Thanks for sharing this. 👏👏👏
Thanks for giving so many options! Would love to see a pet focused video that has the best air filters, and other tricks and tips for keeping homes with pets clean.
Bought that Winix unit several years ago. It does a good job for an average size bedroom. I have several cats and it helps alot. I found the filters became a huge pain to wash.. so I would just have to buy new ones...but even with 3 cats, I really only had to change them about every 4 months or so. I also just recently purchased a large unit from Dyson for the living/kitchen/dining area. It's great and also eliminates formaldehyde. It's only drawback is It's price, but it is made very well.
Hi. As a frontliner mom working with covid patients I’m so thankful I found your channel. I learned a lot of things and tips of cleaning . So busy working that I just realized that I need to do a deep cleaning. Today I went out and bought all the the things I need for cleaning as you suggested. I’m working on my oven and stove top. I didn’t even think of buying air purifier but now I just told my husband that we need it 😂 . I would appreciate if you could advise me which one to choose. I have 2600 sf house with 4 bedrooms, I have one cat and I one bedroom ( teenager) that stinks. Thanks. Your new fan/subscriber from Ca.
Hi Row Ena, First, thanks of being a frontliner mom. You're saving lives and my hat is off to you. Next, the filter is something I can't choose for you. I might miss something that you need since I don't know all the parameters of your home and lifestyle. Jump on Amazon and start with the 10 I recommended in the video (links are in the show notes) and then you can do comparison shopping to find the right one for your home and budget. NOTE: When choosing an air filter, factor in the cost of filter replacements if you buy one that isn't washable. They key to a good working filter is to to change or clean the filters on schedule. Thanks again for your goodness and God Bless.
Please use caution with any ozone generating machine, it can be harmful to lungs. And I say this as someone that has used them, and I love the fresh smell they leave behind. Consider operating the machine only when room/home is vacant.
I strongly agree with Geri Roush. Would respectfully ask you to consider investigating the scientific data available re ozone, its hazards,, and its breakdown time. My research indicates that ozone degrades/destroys all organic materials (leather, wood,, and textiles, etc.) if the exposure time is too long, so one must correctly calculate time based on cubic feet of space being treated. It's not a one size fits all time interval. There's also a standard formula to figure out ozone breakdown time based on volume of ozone generated, and until that breakdown time is over, ozone is still in the air and capable of damaging living things. As an example, when I treated my small kitchen and attached laundry room, the correct exposure time was 12 minutes and total ozone breakdown time was about 5 hours. My family and I spent a summer afternoon out under the trees that day. Small price to pay for undamaged lungs, IMHO.
@@anneeinhorn9227 I think the half-life of ozone may also be dependent on temperature and humidity. I own one of the small "commercial" type units, and I do like the clean scent left in a room which has been treated and properly ventilated. But since I do not have any way of testing the ozone levels post-treatment, it is a guessing game in getting back to safe levels of less than one part per ten million. And I believe certain compounds in a room be reduced to formaldehyde after exposure to ozone.
Hi Cylon, thanks for responding. The points you mention I also found in my research. The formula I used for calculating time includes variables of temperature and humidity. I'd rather err on the side of caution as I have seen too many contractors with permanent lung damage and COPD in their later years.
@@anneeinhorn9227 Thank you for your informed and kind reply. I am now very interested in hydroxyl generators which supposedly can be used in occupied spaces.
I LOVE my ozone machine. bought one for my airbnbs and then got a 2nd unit for my house, between the puppy and teens, it's been so useful, haha. Sorry I didn't see this review or i would have bought through your link. Highly recommend to anyone. I got the Airthereal but mine is yellow and cost a bit more. Also I did learn when doing my research that pot growers use ozone machines to kill bugs in the soil, so plants can tolerate O3 in small doses it seems. I haven't taken any plants out of any room and they are all fine. I only run it for 10-20mins though Love your channel!
What an awesome review. Thanks for sharing this. I love mine as well. I use it in the same room as any strong chemicals on heavy-duty cleaning jobs. We spray the room and during the dwell time for the chemicals, we'll turn on the ozone generator and plug the base of the closed door with a bath towel so the ozone doesn't escape. After the ozone has died down we come in and rinse the areas of chemicals sprayed and then start over to clean the (showers and tubs or appliances) the regular way and that way we're not breathing the fumes. 👍👍👍
Feel asleep with TH-cam playing woke up right when you said “boo ya.” Didn’t even know there was something like this to freshen the air without sprays. Your videos are awesome. 👍🏾👍🏾
This is such fantastic information and I will watch it a 2nd and 3rd time because I'm going to buy something from your list, probably more than one. There are so many air purifiers out there in the market, it's really difficult to know what to buy, but you've done the research for us. I need to figure out if I need both a purifier and an ozone generator; I live in the desert so there is a lot of dust plus *two* growing seasons. I also know people with allergies who could use this list. Thanks for this excellent video!
Thank you. Just ordered the Enerzen Commercial Ozone Generator. My garage smells, my son's room ..his side of the house smells and i need to get the air cleaned. Enjoy your videos. Thank you.
Wonderful! I've got one in the other room right now. Here's a tip - when you use it in a room, wet a towel and put it at the base of the door so no ozone can get out. You're going to love it. Keep me posted, I want to hear how it goes for you. :-)
Glad it was helpful! Please feel free to share it with your daughter. I hope it helps her find what she needs. Thanks for watching and sharing the video, I appreciate it!
Is the silveronyx safe to use while you sleeping and work really good to take away smoke or bad odors i just find your channel and im about to start cleaning bussiness with my wife and your videos are very helpfull i learn a lot from this videos thank you so much i be waiting for your anwser thanks again
I didn’t see any disclaimers in the SilverOnyx Air Purifier description for not using it while sleeping. However, I recommend you ask the question on Amazon before purchasing to be sure. Here is the Amazon link: www.amazon.com/d/Hepa-Air-Purifiers/SilverOnyx-Purifier-Ionizer-Allergies-Smokers/B06XG4Z87P/ref=as_li_ss_tl?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1544745551&sr=1-7&keywords=air%2Bpurifier%2Bfor%2Bsmokers&linkCode=sl1&tag=savvyc03-20&linkId=d3f5570d770323b09b8306a763e03606&language=en_US&th=1 Keep us posted on what you find out :)
As usual, thank you for your thorough review - never knew some of these machines existed or their safety precautions. This video may help with my constant need to rinse my eyes. I have three cats and I guess over the years I've become allergic to them. Also we are about to turn our former home into a rental property. My husband and I have been concerned with the possibility of renting to smokers. Thanks again! :)
Try wiping the kitties down with a damp washcloth a few times a week. The cloth catches their dander. I had good luck using a Febreze product for allergy. I assume it is mostly water? I used it after vacuuming which seemed to really trigger my husband's sinus response. I think the mist settled the dust?
@@sunnygirl87 Thanks and will do. Though I do brush the cats, hadn't thought about the damp cloth or misting after vacuuming. Makes sense to me that it would help. :)
I appreciate you taking the time to reach out. I hope one of these machines can work for your rental property. Keep us posted on how things turn out. ❤️
I use allergy eye drops such as Alaway. Same issue with my cats. They work like a charm for 12 hours. Tho I’m seriously looking into the machines as well.
Hi Angela, thank you for the informative video. Do you have recommendations for quickly getting neighbor's pot/weed smoke out of my home? It happens in the middle of the night and is keeping me awake.
Hi. 👋 I have had success removing offensive odors with an ozone generator. I did a video on them, you can watch it if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/jUmfW6bw1Pg/w-d-xo.html. I really like this ozone generator, it's highly rated and reasonably priced: amzn.to/3CLp72x (paid link). Thank you so much for watching! 🤗
What would you recommend to get moth ball smell out of a cedar chest? I have left it open outside under a covered porch to air out for 3 months with no luck, please help. Thanks for your hard work and wisdom and God bless you.
I am really happy I found your website! Thanks for the great, informative videos. I'd like to add a couple of insights. Ozone will also kill pests, if they cannot leave the area. There is an odor left after using an ozone generator, especially if it's left on a little long. Follow up with a HEPA machine or odor product is helpful. Ozone generators and Ionizers both leave residue that will build up over time. You may want to wash walls and drapes every few years and shampoo the carpet once per year.
hi, new subscriber here, love the way you explain and give info! I'm wondering about 2 things - #1: is i do smoke in my house and (sorry world!) don't plan to stop. I know that's ridiculous, but i'm also pretty sure ppl who are looking up remedies for smoking odors may also be house smokers like me. so i would like to know what measures we can take and what machines might benefit us the most? thank you in advance for advising me if you can ; ) #2: I've been clicking on your links in this video and one other related video, but sometimes the products are no longer available. I realize these are old videos, but i would love to know if you have an updated video with current links? You come across as very trustworthy to me, and you could spare an older woman from hours of searching, comparing, reading reviews, etc. - and all with my limited knowledge, lol. thank you again!
Hello! Thank you so much for subscribing! 🙏 And for your kind words! For the smoke odor removal, you could try an Ozone Generator similar to this one: (amzn.to/3pUSf3Z- paid link). They can work very well. And thank you for letting me know about the product links. They are sometimes updated without my knowledge though I do try to keep up with them. 😊 If that happens, however, there are usually similar products recommended that you could try. Hope this helps.
@@AskAngelaBrown oh, thank you so much for answering! I clicked on the link and it took me to a smart plug controlled by Alexa, lol. I'll try the link again later, but in the meantime i should ask if an ozone 'generator' is different than other ozone machines/treatments you've covered? I'm looking for something that can be used in the room while I'm sitting in it - would that be safe or do I have to use the ozone precautions you've spoken about elsewhere? Thanks!
I bought the UCheer you talked about here on Amazon. I hope I'm doing things correctly so you get credit for it. I have it in my frig. So far so good. It is small & looks super cute in the frig. I like that it will last a long time & doesn't have consumables.
This video was fantastic! I am so grateful to you for this information! I just ordered the Silver Onyx from your affiliate link for my father AND for my home!
Great review! After three years, will an update be coming soon? (new technologies, new implementation of older tech, less noise, more effectiveness, etc, etc.)
Hey Angela, great video as always! On the topic of odour removal, I'm obsessed with my many (many) essential oil diffusers. I use them daily and they are getting pretty yucky inside. Do you have any advice about how to clean them properly? Thanks!
Hi Angela. I am a non-smoker that lives in a 1200 square-foot apartment on the top level of the building. Just yesterday I had a malfunction on my stove top burner which caused extreme burning of my food. Luckily no fire, but super heavy smoke, even a few ashes in the air, filled my entire apartment. My question is, you think the first ozone generator you mentioned in the video will work to clear the air? I have an eight-year-old daughter who I wanna be very careful with not to cause harm to. I’ve never used this generator before, so I’m a rookie. Also, I have neighbors to the side and downstairs from me. I can’t control their schedules, so they may be home if I use an ozone generator. Is that still safe for them? Any advice is super helpful, as I need to get the smoke out ASAP! Thank you so much! I’ll be sure to purchase any products you recommend through your channel. Happy to support your awesome channel!
Hi Jonny, An inexpensive but effective model that should work for your whole apartment is this one amzn.to/2K8ULMz or one similar also found on Amazon. They are quick to ship them. My suggestion would be to turn off the air conditioning while using it as not to disturb your neighbors. And make sure you remove all people, plants and pets. Run it for an hour and give it an hour for the air to dissipate and go back to normal. You will benefit from keeping it on hand in case something like this happens again.
Angela Brown You are simply amazing! I think that Amazon link goes to a different item, though. It looks like it goes to a book. If you happen to have the correct link, that would be great! Thank you SO MUCH!
Sorry for sending you the wrong link, here's the correct one: Enerzen Commercial Ozone Generator 6,000mg Industrial O3 Air Purifier Deodorizer Sterilizer - amzn.to/2PxXdvT
What device can I use for a moldy basement do not have any electrical outlets to plug in. Used to use a dehumidifier in previous home but can't use because of no outlets pleased help with any tip you might have thank you.
Hi Carolyn, a mold remediation specialist might have suggestions on how to get the dehumidifier working in your basement (maybe a generator or extra long extension cords). Good luck!
That is a trick question - when it comes to mold, where is the mold? How much mold is there? Are you trying to remove humidity from the air that contributes to the mold, or are you trying to remove the mildew like odor from the mold? Depending on what the actual problem is - will determine what product is needed. Tell me more about the situation you have in mind.
No. It's not safe for people, plants or pets. You will need to lock everything out of the room or house while you use it. If just using it in one room, plug the bottom of the door with a towel so no ozone leaks into the other rooms. After about an hour after the cycle has run all the air will be clean and back to normal.
Hi Angela , I am looking purchase an ozone generator but have a concern regarding recorded media I own. I have a large cassette tape collection and am curious to whether or not the ozone would destroy the audio cassette tapes. Would you know if it would or not?
I couldn’t find specific data on ozone damage of audio cassette but I did find this at the EPA website: “Ozone can adversely affect indoor plants, and damage materials such as rubber, electrical wire coatings and fabrics and art work containing susceptible dyes and pigments (U.S. EPA, 1996a).” I hope this helps.
Great Video 👍... question, I have severe allergies when I come to smell like scented oils, air fresheners, oil plugins, etc. The area where most guests reside is the living room. Will a large room air purifier help make the air smell natural and not have to depend on any of the above scented alternatives? Of course, I still use natural homemade sprays with lemon and other natural ingredients to spray on carpet and sofas. 🙂
Air purifiers shouldn’t have any scent, they are designed to remove particles from the air (not add anything). If you spray your homemade scent on carpets and sofas there still may be a lingering scent on the fabric. 👍
@@AskAngelaBrown Sorry you misunderstood my question. Primary asking if air purifers help air smell clean and neutral. Forget about me initially mentioning fragrances.
Is there something like a smoke smell that can be from a furnace or dryer instead of a smoker? There's a smoke smell in our house but its somewhat faint, and not like a smoker but something like it feels a bit subtle. Its different but still noticeable. And looking for what could be the cause.
@@AskAngelaBrown Angela, I just bought a lovely sectional from someone. Now that it's in my home, it smells so bad, it's making me physically ill. I can't pinpoint the smell, it's not tobacco, doesn't smell like pets, or bodily fluid. Febreeze made it even worse while damp. Will something like this be able to remove the smells from deep down? Please help!
It depends on the model and the wattage - I don't have that product in front of me. You can find it on Amazon, and then read the specs and reviews to see if it matches your requirements. You may also find a newer model with a greater distance range. If I have a large space I am trying to ozonate - I may block off the home in two parts and do the upstairs and then the downstairs in two separate sessions for guaranteed coverage. Does that make sense?
Please help me out....I have a very stinky basement and need something to use real bad. I have a small cape cod idl 24 x 30 I suppose. Please help me to know what to get. Sometimes drying my clothes they pick up basement odors. I need something good, but I don’t know which one. Please help!
Thanks so much for watching my video and taking the time to drop me a line. Let us know which one of the machines you decide on and how it works out for your basement. 🤗
Yes, but the flooring or carpet may also need to be treated with an enzyme cleaner like Angry Orange. Here is the paid link amzn.to/3dGiRzA it looks like this and helps prevent animals from revisiting that same spot to pee again.
Hi Angela, I have a 700 ft carpeted apartment, with 3 cats. Which of these would you strongly recommend for me ? I vacuum every three days but still there is hair, and the dust from outside gets in no matter what I do. I'm confused which one to get. I don't smoke or have cooking odors. Just dust😅 Thank you so much !
@@AskAngelaBrown Thanks Angela. I was discussing this with Mr Right earlier and he is also interested. I tend to leave upstairs windows open 24/7, 10 months of the year, and all window vents open all year round, which helps a lot, but... he suffers from midsummer hayfever and often gets red eyes, so an air purifier would be a blessing. One of the HEPA systems would probably suit us best as we work opposite shifts and might find it difficult to find times to run an ozone generator when no-one is home. I appreciate the detail you went into of how each thing works. As an aside, I am an IT geek, and early in my career I was asked to do UK COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) assessments for a small company. So for years I have advised people at work not to sit a laserjet printer on their desk as these create ozone too, in a 'little lightning' way, as well as the toner having carcinogenic properties. Nasty, and defintinitely not good for you.
Why do you run an Ozone Generator in increments of 20 or 30 minutes instead of for a long time like overnight? Will the ozone generator ruin my leather upholstery? I just bought an artists travel van with beautiful leathers, brushed aluminum, solid curly maple cabinet doors, bead work, etc, covered in smoke residue and smell HELP!
Ozone is not safe for people, plants or pets. So getting people out of the house overnight is not an option for many. Also, short spurts of ozone may be all you need. The van is more compact than a house and may not need as long a cycle. Either way, it sounds like you might benefit from an ozone machine. 👍
10mins is enough to clean a normal sized room. sometimes you need to do it twice, i still prefer to do short bursts, give it a chance to air out for a few hours, and then hit it again.
Hi, thank you for your question! Ucheer is not available at the moment but here's a great alternative: Pure Enrichment PureZone Mini Portable Air Purifier - amzn.to/47rbtPQ (affiliate link*)
In short, ozone machines sanitize by generating ozone but require caution, while ionizers help clean the air by removing particles without producing harmful gases.
Great question. Here is an electrical engineering forum that has a discussion about this very topic. electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/144230/ozone-and-electronic-equipment
Ucheer products don't seem to be offered any more on Amazon! Do you have a replacement option for the car air purifier? Thank you for your amazing content!!!
Nina, Fish are pets and according to the EPA website “ conditions should be sufficiently controlled to insure that no person or pet becomes exposed. Ozone can adversely affect indoor plants, and damage materials such as rubber, electrical wire coatings and fabrics and art work containing susceptible dyes and pigments (U.S. EPA, 1996a).” Resource: www.epa.gov/indoor-air-quality-iaq/ozone-generators-are-sold-air-cleaners
It might - but it's not designed to be a bug zapper. It creates the same stinky damp smell you find after a rain storm. And like a rain storm after the stinky smell wears off everything smells fresh and new again. If you've used bug spray to kill the fleas - the ozone generator will remove the smell of the chemicals.
How do we wash the walls ceiling and floors cigarette 🚬 it’s extremely bad and it’s in a home I wanted to purchase. It in my price range and not many are.
Great question. Here is a video from a homeowner who smoked for 15 years in his home and then tried to sell it - th-cam.com/video/sHtF4t3FQuM/w-d-xo.html
There are probably newer models on the market now, I think this video is a couple years old now. Amazon reviews are a great place to start for pluses and minuses of different type of machines. Lots of the reviews will tell you what other users found helpful about the units. And of course, the individual manufacturer websites usually cover the specs in great details.
Great question. In order for a product to make it on our list, there is a rigorous process it must go through. We (myself or someone on the Savvy Cleaner team) tries it under a variety of scenarios to help us understand the durability, and possibilities of its use. We then decide if the product(s) are better suited for a homeowner, a professional house cleaner, or a specific market like kids or seniors. Amazon reviews can be purchased and verification of ownership isn't always available so while that does influence some - it's not always the best metric for us to rely on when recommending a brand.
There are some here that eat odors, some that filter air and some that ionize air. Three very different types of machines depending on what you need, the size of your home and your lifestyle.
Enerzen Ozone Generator = magic for your old car. Far more effective than perfumed cardboard pine trees dangling from your rearview mirror. Clean your car good. Clean all hard surfaces with your fave cleaner. Use carpet cleaner and a shopvac to clean all the upholstery and carpet. Vacuum everything first, including under the seats. Then scrub down all those carpeted and upholstered areas with diluted carpet cleaner and a scrub brush, and use the shopvac as an extractor. Let it all dry thoroughly. Then run the ozone generator in the car. Twice in the passenger cabin; once in the front area for 30 minutes. Let that sit for an hour. Then air out the car for a couple hours. Then 20 minutes in the rear seat area, and again let it sit for an hour then air out the car. If you have a trunk, or in an SUV have an enclosable rear storage area, run it there for another 20 minutes. You’ll be shocked at the difference.
I assume we are talking about using the ozone generator in a home with pets? (Paid link: amzn.to/3A8ydp6 - this is the one I have) Can you crate them in a room for a few hours? If yes, put them in a room with food and water and a litter box and close the door. At the bottom of the closed door, roll a wet towel to block air from entering under the door. Make sure the vent in the room the animals are in has a vent cover. (Paid link amzn.to/3TxvQTo - they look like this). Run the ozone generator in the rest of the house. When the ozone dies down and the air is back to normal, let the pets out.
Ucheer is not available at the moment but here's a great alternative: Pure Enrichment PureZone Mini Portable Air Purifier - amzn.to/47rbtPQ (affiliate link*)
+lohengrinknight Great question the answer is yes it can help dissolve the odors caused from animal pee. However, if the animal is peeing on the carpet there’s a different issue going on there an ozone generator will not be able to cure. Beyond training, you may want to have the animal checked at the vet to make sure there are no internal health conditions that are causing this to happen. 😻
@@AskAngelaBrown thanks for the quick reply. My cat is stressed out because she can't go outside now that it's so cold. She used to live out all the time with her previous owner, and she pees on the carpet,boxes or plants if she can't go outside.
That’s a sad comment about nursery odor. 🤣 Diaper Genie, and open the windows to air the room out. Does anyone use cloth diapers? Years ago there was a deodorizing tablet that fit into a holder on the inside of the diaper pail lid.
About 20 minutes into the video... you do not handle a cat like that! The way that person dragged it by the front leg and forced it to stay! Omg that poor cat! I'm so sorry Angela, but that just triggered the animal lover in me! I have a beautiful, well pampered, 8 year old ginger and white cat, we've had him since he was 10 weeks old, who looks similar, and he has moved with us a few times and he loves all of us because I have taught my special needs children how to be gentle, loving, and that he is part of this family too, he's my baby too, and we all feed him and take care of him. Even his vet said she can tell he's a well loved family member!

We stayed at a nice Airbnb last month. When we walked in the perfume smell knocked us over. There were three of the plug in units, we had to unplug while we were there because it was so over powering (and it’s toxic). I wish more people realized the smell of clean is no smell!
Right? A client gave me an entire gift basket of those plug-in smelly perfume thingies. It was the sweetest gesture. And I've got really bad sensitivities to those as well. I gave them all away as door prizes in a contest. LOL. 👏👏👏
I didn't even know these machines existed, I always thought if you can't open a window you're stuck with the odors. Thank you for the detailed reviews!
In all seriousness, this was an incredible review! This was beyond informative. I am so grateful I found this channel. Such a pleasant and friendly energy. Thank you for posting this.
Glad you think so! Thank you so much for your feedback and for watching the video! 😊👼
+Danielle Farrakhan thank you for watching and for your kind words of encouragement and support. 😊
So much great information. Your voice is so smooth when you present this material.
Anyhow I just moved into a 1200 sq foot house that is all open. I also have a dog 🐶 who sleeps with me.
I was hoping to be able to bring my plants in the winter ❄️ but I guess they would die if I try the ozone machines.
Are the others, like the HEPA filters safe for pets, people and plants.
I’m going to make a list of all of these to see what works best for me.
Again, thank you for this awesome information.
My husband caught me binge watching your Chanel. Next he’s sitting and we’re both caught up in the TH-cam on our TV ( move over Netflix!) He just looked flabbergasted when you showed something on the screen, I went, “oh, wow!” Just then you looked at the audience and said, yeah, I know!” It looked like we were actually talking! It was perfect timing! I am now sitting with my foot elevated and iced after a foot surgery. I’m relaxed by your videos and I’ve bought new gadgets waiting for the day I’m allowed to bear weight on my foot! If I weren’t a nurse, I’d have been happy being a house cleaner! Love your channnel!
LOL. What an awesome story. This just made my day. Not the part about your foot being all busted up, but about us having a conversation through the TV. Thanks for watching and I sure hope you feel better soon. 🙏
We've been using the Levoit purifiers in every room since we moved to our new home and found out our kids have asthma from all the allergens where we live. I love them and they make a difference. I didn't know about the plug ins for hotels and travel. Thank you for the information and your wonderful channel.
Thanks, Julie for watching and for taking the time out to drop me a line. I love that you have air purifiers in your home for the better breathing capacity of your family. I love hearing solutions people find that makes life better. Thanks for sharing this. 👏👏👏
Thanks for giving so many options! Would love to see a pet focused video that has the best air filters, and other tricks and tips for keeping homes with pets clean.
Here is a video for keeping a house clean from muddy paws. th-cam.com/video/Fcz63gDCEDg/w-d-xo.html
Bought that Winix unit several years ago. It does a good job for an average size bedroom. I have several cats and it helps alot. I found the filters became a huge pain to wash.. so I would just have to buy new ones...but even with 3 cats, I really only had to change them about every 4 months or so. I also just recently purchased a large unit from Dyson for the living/kitchen/dining area. It's great and also eliminates formaldehyde. It's only drawback is It's price, but it is made very well.
Good to know! Keep me posted on how the Dyson works out for you : )
Hi. As a frontliner mom working with covid patients I’m so thankful I found your channel. I learned a lot of things and tips of cleaning . So busy working that I just realized that I need to do a deep cleaning. Today I went out and bought all the the things I need for cleaning as you suggested. I’m working on my oven and stove top. I didn’t even think of buying air purifier but now I just told my husband that we need it 😂 . I would appreciate if you could advise me which one to choose. I have 2600 sf house with 4 bedrooms, I have one cat and I one bedroom ( teenager) that stinks. Thanks. Your new fan/subscriber from Ca.
Hi Row Ena, First, thanks of being a frontliner mom. You're saving lives and my hat is off to you.
Next, the filter is something I can't choose for you. I might miss something that you need since I don't know all the parameters of your home and lifestyle. Jump on Amazon and start with the 10 I recommended in the video (links are in the show notes) and then you can do comparison shopping to find the right one for your home and budget.
NOTE: When choosing an air filter, factor in the cost of filter replacements if you buy one that isn't washable. They key to a good working filter is to to change or clean the filters on schedule. Thanks again for your goodness and God Bless.
Please use caution with any ozone generating machine, it can be harmful to lungs. And I say this as someone that has used them, and I love the fresh smell they leave behind. Consider operating the machine only when room/home is vacant.
Thank you so much for sharing!
I strongly agree with Geri Roush. Would respectfully ask you to consider investigating the scientific data available re ozone, its hazards,, and its breakdown time. My research indicates that ozone degrades/destroys all organic materials (leather, wood,, and textiles, etc.) if the exposure time is too long, so one must correctly calculate time based on cubic feet of space being treated. It's not a one size fits all time interval. There's also a standard formula to figure out ozone breakdown time based on volume of ozone generated, and until that breakdown time is over, ozone is still in the air and capable of damaging living things. As an example, when I treated my small kitchen and attached laundry room, the correct exposure time was 12 minutes and total ozone breakdown time was about 5 hours. My family and I spent a summer afternoon out under the trees that day. Small price to pay for undamaged lungs, IMHO.
@@anneeinhorn9227 I think the half-life of ozone may also be dependent on temperature and humidity. I own one of the small "commercial" type units, and I do like the clean scent left in a room which has been treated and properly ventilated. But since I do not have any way of testing the ozone levels post-treatment, it is a guessing game in getting back to safe levels of less than one part per ten million. And I believe certain compounds in a room be reduced to formaldehyde after exposure to ozone.
Hi Cylon, thanks for responding. The points you mention I also found in my research. The formula I used for calculating time includes variables of temperature and humidity. I'd rather err on the side of caution as I have seen too many contractors with permanent lung damage and COPD in their later years.
@@anneeinhorn9227 Thank you for your informed and kind reply. I am now very interested in hydroxyl generators which supposedly can be used in occupied spaces.
I LOVE my ozone machine. bought one for my airbnbs and then got a 2nd unit for my house, between the puppy and teens, it's been so useful, haha. Sorry I didn't see this review or i would have bought through your link. Highly recommend to anyone. I got the Airthereal but mine is yellow and cost a bit more.
Also I did learn when doing my research that pot growers use ozone machines to kill bugs in the soil, so plants can tolerate O3 in small doses it seems. I haven't taken any plants out of any room and they are all fine. I only run it for 10-20mins though
Love your channel!
What an awesome review. Thanks for sharing this. I love mine as well. I use it in the same room as any strong chemicals on heavy-duty cleaning jobs. We spray the room and during the dwell time for the chemicals, we'll turn on the ozone generator and plug the base of the closed door with a bath towel so the ozone doesn't escape. After the ozone has died down we come in and rinse the areas of chemicals sprayed and then start over to clean the (showers and tubs or appliances) the regular way and that way we're not breathing the fumes. 👍👍👍
Feel asleep with TH-cam playing woke up right when you said “boo ya.” Didn’t even know there was something like this to freshen the air without sprays. Your videos are awesome. 👍🏾👍🏾
LOL. Thanks for watching. I wake myself up saying Boo ya too. Why do I do that? LOL.
This is such fantastic information and I will watch it a 2nd and 3rd time because I'm going to buy something from your list, probably more than one. There are so many air purifiers out there in the market, it's really difficult to know what to buy, but you've done the research for us. I need to figure out if I need both a purifier and an ozone generator; I live in the desert so there is a lot of dust plus *two* growing seasons. I also know people with allergies who could use this list. Thanks for this excellent video!
Thank you for writing such a nice comment, I really appreciate it!
Thank You! We are going to a commercial office. The previous owner was a pet groomer who’s been in the office for 10-12 years.
You're welcome! You got this! Wishing you lots of success!!
Hi Angela, I just got the Levoit through your link but I waited until today since it's prime day 😀 thanks for all your great informative videos
Thank YOU for the support! Let me know how you like it. :-)
Thank you. Just ordered the Enerzen Commercial Ozone Generator. My garage smells, my son's room ..his side of the house smells and i need to get the air cleaned. Enjoy your videos. Thank you.
Wonderful! I've got one in the other room right now. Here's a tip - when you use it in a room, wet a towel and put it at the base of the door so no ozone can get out. You're going to love it. Keep me posted, I want to hear how it goes for you. :-)
Hey 👋🏽 how did it work out for you?
Open your windows daily and air the place out. Remove the source of the odor. Dirty laundry, etc., not your son.
Great list. My daughter has been looking for a good air purifier. I will share this with her. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Please feel free to share it with your daughter. I hope it helps her find what she needs. Thanks for watching and sharing the video, I appreciate it!
Is the silveronyx safe to use while you sleeping and work really good to take away smoke or bad odors i just find your channel and im about to start cleaning bussiness with my wife and your videos are very helpfull i learn a lot from this videos thank you so much i be waiting for your anwser thanks again
I didn’t see any disclaimers in the SilverOnyx Air Purifier description for not using it while sleeping. However, I recommend you ask the question on Amazon before purchasing to be sure.
Here is the Amazon link: www.amazon.com/d/Hepa-Air-Purifiers/SilverOnyx-Purifier-Ionizer-Allergies-Smokers/B06XG4Z87P/ref=as_li_ss_tl?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1544745551&sr=1-7&keywords=air%2Bpurifier%2Bfor%2Bsmokers&linkCode=sl1&tag=savvyc03-20&linkId=d3f5570d770323b09b8306a763e03606&language=en_US&th=1
Keep us posted on what you find out :)
Thank you for these great product recommendation.
You are so welcome, glad you enjoyed them! Thanks for watching!
Thanks Angela. You Chanel has helped me again. I clean move in/ move out apartments and the odor removal all can be a problem.
Wonderful! I'm glad the video was helpful. Thank you for your feedback and thanks for watching. 🙂
As usual, thank you for your thorough review - never knew some of these machines existed or their safety precautions. This video may help with my constant need to rinse my eyes. I have three cats and I guess over the years I've become allergic to them. Also we are about to turn our former home into a rental property. My husband and I have been concerned with the possibility of renting to smokers. Thanks again! :)
Try wiping the kitties down with a damp washcloth a few times a week. The cloth catches their dander. I had good luck using a Febreze product for allergy. I assume it is mostly water? I used it after vacuuming which seemed to really trigger my husband's sinus response. I think the mist settled the dust?
@@sunnygirl87 Thanks and will do. Though I do brush the cats, hadn't thought about the damp cloth or misting after vacuuming. Makes sense to me that it would help. :)
I appreciate you taking the time to reach out. I hope one of these machines can work for your rental property. Keep us posted on how things turn out. ❤️
Great tip on wiping the cats down to catch their dander. 😊
I use allergy eye drops such as Alaway. Same issue with my cats. They work like a charm for 12 hours. Tho I’m seriously looking into the machines as well.
Hi Angela, thank you for the informative video. Do you have recommendations for quickly getting neighbor's pot/weed smoke out of my home? It happens in the middle of the night and is keeping me awake.
Hi. 👋 I have had success removing offensive odors with an ozone generator. I did a video on them, you can watch it if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/jUmfW6bw1Pg/w-d-xo.html. I really like this ozone generator, it's highly rated and reasonably priced: amzn.to/3CLp72x (paid link). Thank you so much for watching! 🤗
What would you recommend to get moth ball smell out of a cedar chest? I have left it open outside under a covered porch to air out for 3 months with no luck, please help. Thanks for your hard work and wisdom and God bless you.
Here is what I found online for getting rid of the smell of moth balls: www.homemadesimple.com/in-the-home/get-rid-of-mothball-smells/
Thanks so much for all the detailed information, great advice
You are so welcome, glad it was helpful!
Very good review. Best thing is to open windows and ventilate.
Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. 👍
You are a great Professional, Thank you
Thank you so much, I appreciate it!
Thank you. I am buying the SilverOnyx Purifer
You're so welcome!👍
I am really happy I found your website! Thanks for the great, informative videos. I'd like to add a couple of insights. Ozone will also kill pests, if they cannot leave the area. There is an odor left after using an ozone generator, especially if it's left on a little long. Follow up with a HEPA machine or odor product is helpful. Ozone generators and Ionizers both leave residue that will build up over time. You may want to wash walls and drapes every few years and shampoo the carpet once per year.
Thanks so much for the tips. I appreciate you joining the conversation. 👍
Love the idea that there is one - the Coway Mighty Air Purifier - that is auto on and auto off if it is needed or not!!! Wow! I want one.
YES, technology is getting smarter now - like programmable thermostats, these air units can sense when to come on and when to cut off. 👏👏👏
its been a few years. Some of these links no longer exist. Can you do an updated version of this video?
Thanks for the notice and suggestion, I will put it on my queue!
hi, new subscriber here, love the way you explain and give info! I'm wondering about 2 things -
#1: is i do smoke in my house and (sorry world!) don't plan to stop. I know that's ridiculous, but i'm also pretty sure ppl who are looking up remedies for smoking odors may also be house smokers like me. so i would like to know what measures we can take and what machines might benefit us the most? thank you in advance for advising me if you can ; )
#2: I've been clicking on your links in this video and one other related video, but sometimes the products are no longer available. I realize these are old videos, but i would love to know if you have an updated video with current links? You come across as very trustworthy to me, and you could spare an older woman from hours of searching, comparing, reading reviews, etc. - and all with my limited knowledge, lol. thank you again!
Hello! Thank you so much for subscribing! 🙏 And for your kind words! For the smoke odor removal, you could try an Ozone Generator similar to this one: (amzn.to/3pUSf3Z- paid link). They can work very well. And thank you for letting me know about the product links. They are sometimes updated without my knowledge though I do try to keep up with them. 😊 If that happens, however, there are usually similar products recommended that you could try. Hope this helps.
@@AskAngelaBrown oh, thank you so much for answering! I clicked on the link and it took me to a smart plug controlled by Alexa, lol. I'll try the link again later, but in the meantime i should ask if an ozone 'generator' is different than other ozone machines/treatments you've covered? I'm looking for something that can be used in the room while I'm sitting in it - would that be safe or do I have to use the ozone precautions you've spoken about elsewhere? Thanks!
Thank you I have purchased the Coway with your discount. It is wonderful and I am very grateful for your expertise and recommendations.
Thanks so much for watching my video. Let me know what you think of the Coway Mighty Air Purifier : )
I bought the UCheer you talked about here on Amazon. I hope I'm doing things correctly so you get credit for it. I have it in my frig. So far so good. It is small & looks super cute in the frig. I like that it will last a long time & doesn't have consumables.
That’s great, definitely keep me posted on how it goes. Thanks for dropping me a line : )
Just came across your videos…. Thank you and your videos are much appreciated!
You are so welcome, glad you like them!
Oh man, I wish I had found this about 3 months ago when I was starting my first trimester! 🤢😷
I wish you had so too! Thanks for watching.
This video was fantastic! I am so grateful to you for this information! I just ordered the Silver Onyx from your affiliate link for my father AND for my home!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much for watching and for making a purchase with our link, I appreciate it!
7:20 Gave me life! Not only will I try the product using your link I got a laugh! With all the smoke around me I've wanted to cry. THANK YOU!
Welcome!
Thanks for watching and let me know how you like it. Praying for no more smoke in your life. :-)
Great review! After three years, will an update be coming soon? (new technologies, new implementation of older tech, less noise, more effectiveness, etc, etc.)
Thank you for the feedback! And you are not the first to ask this, I have put in on the video queue and my to-do list. Thanks for the suggestion!
I second an update please
Thank you for valuable information
My pleasure! Hope it was helpful, thanks for watching!
Hey Angela, great video as always! On the topic of odour removal, I'm obsessed with my many (many) essential oil diffusers. I use them daily and they are getting pretty yucky inside. Do you have any advice about how to clean them properly? Thanks!
That’s a great idea for a show! I’ll look into it and add it to my list of show ideas : )
Good sound information thank you 👍
Glad you found the video informative : )
Hi Angela. I am a non-smoker that lives in a 1200 square-foot apartment on the top level of the building. Just yesterday I had a malfunction on my stove top burner which caused extreme burning of my food. Luckily no fire, but super heavy smoke, even a few ashes in the air, filled my entire apartment. My question is, you think the first ozone generator you mentioned in the video will work to clear the air? I have an eight-year-old daughter who I wanna be very careful with not to cause harm to. I’ve never used this generator before, so I’m a rookie. Also, I have neighbors to the side and downstairs from me. I can’t control their schedules, so they may be home if I use an ozone generator. Is that still safe for them? Any advice is super helpful, as I need to get the smoke out ASAP! Thank you so much! I’ll be sure to purchase any products you recommend through your channel. Happy to support your awesome channel!
Hi Jonny, An inexpensive but effective model that should work for your whole apartment is this one amzn.to/2K8ULMz or one similar also found on Amazon. They are quick to ship them. My suggestion would be to turn off the air conditioning while using it as not to disturb your neighbors. And make sure you remove all people, plants and pets. Run it for an hour and give it an hour for the air to dissipate and go back to normal. You will benefit from keeping it on hand in case something like this happens again.
Angela Brown You are simply amazing! I think that Amazon link goes to a different item, though. It looks like it goes to a book. If you happen to have the correct link, that would be great! Thank you SO MUCH!
Sorry for sending you the wrong link, here's the correct one: Enerzen Commercial Ozone Generator 6,000mg Industrial O3 Air Purifier Deodorizer Sterilizer - amzn.to/2PxXdvT
What device can I use for a moldy basement do not have any electrical outlets to plug in. Used to use a dehumidifier in previous home but can't use because of no outlets pleased help with any tip you might have thank you.
Hi Carolyn, a mold remediation specialist might have suggestions on how to get the dehumidifier working in your basement (maybe a generator or extra long extension cords). Good luck!
Hi Angela
Which one should work for mold the best ?
Please share the link to buy it please
That is a trick question - when it comes to mold, where is the mold? How much mold is there? Are you trying to remove humidity from the air that contributes to the mold, or are you trying to remove the mildew like odor from the mold? Depending on what the actual problem is - will determine what product is needed. Tell me more about the situation you have in mind.
Is the Ivation Ozone Air Purifier safe for people to be around when it's on?
No. It's not safe for people, plants or pets. You will need to lock everything out of the room or house while you use it. If just using it in one room, plug the bottom of the door with a towel so no ozone leaks into the other rooms. After about an hour after the cycle has run all the air will be clean and back to normal.
Hi Angela , I am looking purchase an ozone generator but have a concern regarding recorded media I own. I have a large cassette tape collection and am curious to whether or not the ozone would destroy the audio cassette tapes. Would you know if it would or not?
I couldn’t find specific data on ozone damage of audio cassette but I did find this at the EPA website: “Ozone can adversely affect indoor plants, and damage materials such as rubber, electrical wire coatings and fabrics and art work containing susceptible dyes and pigments (U.S. EPA, 1996a).”
I hope this helps.
Sadly, the UCheer product is not available in Canada!
Oh no, sorry about that. Did you find another one that you could get in Canada?
Wonderful video great info--thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
I really appreciate this segment! You addressed my questions regarding this.
You are so welcome! Thank you for your feedback and thanks for watching. 🙂
Great Video 👍... question, I have severe allergies when I come to smell like scented oils, air fresheners, oil plugins, etc. The area where most guests reside is the living room. Will a large room air purifier help make the air smell natural and not have to depend on any of the above scented alternatives? Of course, I still use natural homemade sprays with lemon and other natural ingredients to spray on carpet and sofas. 🙂
Air purifiers shouldn’t have any scent, they are designed to remove particles from the air (not add anything). If you spray your homemade scent on carpets and sofas there still may be a lingering scent on the fabric. 👍
@@AskAngelaBrown Sorry you misunderstood my question. Primary asking if air purifers help air smell clean and neutral. Forget about me initially mentioning fragrances.
Those products you listed are toxic. You likely suffer from chemical sensitivity, not allergies,
@@genxx2724 I never said I use them 🫠, said I don't want to rely on any such product.
Is there something like a smoke smell that can be from a furnace or dryer instead of a smoker? There's a smoke smell in our house but its somewhat faint, and not like a smoker but something like it feels a bit subtle. Its different but still noticeable. And looking for what could be the cause.
Is there a room it’s specifically strong in? You may want to check all electrical items.
Excellent review.
I'm glad it was helpful for you. Thanks for dropping me a line :-)
@@AskAngelaBrown Angela, I just bought a lovely sectional from someone. Now that it's in my home, it smells so bad, it's making me physically ill. I can't pinpoint the smell, it's not tobacco, doesn't smell like pets, or bodily fluid. Febreeze made it even worse while damp. Will something like this be able to remove the smells from deep down? Please help!
What an amazing channel!!! Thank you so much!!
Thank you for the kind words and for watching. It's great to have you here. 😍
Ivation Ozone Generator Air Purifier Ionizer and Deodorizer: The 3,500 square feet - will that work in a 2,400 square foot, two level home?
It depends on the model and the wattage - I don't have that product in front of me. You can find it on Amazon, and then read the specs and reviews to see if it matches your requirements. You may also find a newer model with a greater distance range.
If I have a large space I am trying to ozonate - I may block off the home in two parts and do the upstairs and then the downstairs in two separate sessions for guaranteed coverage. Does that make sense?
Are these still your recommendations? Any updates?
I haven't done a video on new odor machines, so no updates for now. These are still my recommendations. Will add making an updated video to my list.
Please help me out....I have a very stinky basement and need something to use real bad. I have a small cape cod idl 24 x 30 I suppose. Please help me to know what to get. Sometimes drying my clothes they pick up basement odors. I need something good, but I don’t know which one. Please help!
I would purchas the Zvation Ozone Generator for that basement
Thanks so much for watching my video and taking the time to drop me a line. Let us know which one of the machines you decide on and how it works out for your basement. 🤗
Awesome review
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
@Angela Brown Cleaning Will any of these air purifiers help with the smell of cat/pet urine? Thank you for sharing.
Yes, but the flooring or carpet may also need to be treated with an enzyme cleaner like Angry Orange. Here is the paid link amzn.to/3dGiRzA it looks like this and helps prevent animals from revisiting that same spot to pee again.
Hi Angela, I have a 700 ft carpeted apartment, with 3 cats. Which of these would you strongly recommend for me ? I vacuum every three days but still there is hair, and the dust from outside gets in no matter what I do. I'm confused which one to get. I don't smoke or have cooking odors. Just dust😅 Thank you so much !
Rosemary, Are your cats allowed outdoors? Do you regularly dust in addition to vacuuming?
Brilliant video, incredibly informative. I'm really quite interested in trying one of these now
@@AskAngelaBrown Thanks Angela. I was discussing this with Mr Right earlier and he is also interested. I tend to leave upstairs windows open 24/7, 10 months of the year, and all window vents open all year round, which helps a lot, but... he suffers from midsummer hayfever and often gets red eyes, so an air purifier would be a blessing. One of the HEPA systems would probably suit us best as we work opposite shifts and might find it difficult to find times to run an ozone generator when no-one is home. I appreciate the detail you went into of how each thing works.
As an aside, I am an IT geek, and early in my career I was asked to do UK COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) assessments for a small company. So for years I have advised people at work not to sit a laserjet printer on their desk as these create ozone too, in a 'little lightning' way, as well as the toner having carcinogenic properties. Nasty, and defintinitely not good for you.
Thanks so much for sharing these tips with our community : )
Why do you run an Ozone Generator in increments of 20 or 30 minutes instead of for a long time like overnight? Will the ozone generator ruin my leather upholstery? I just bought an artists travel van with beautiful leathers, brushed aluminum, solid curly maple cabinet doors, bead work, etc, covered in smoke residue and smell HELP!
Ozone is not safe for people, plants or pets. So getting people out of the house overnight is not an option for many. Also, short spurts of ozone may be all you need. The van is more compact than a house and may not need as long a cycle. Either way, it sounds like you might benefit from an ozone machine. 👍
10mins is enough to clean a normal sized room. sometimes you need to do it twice, i still prefer to do short bursts, give it a chance to air out for a few hours, and then hit it again.
Will they set off smoke alarms in the home? Carbon monoxide alarms?
No. They are all safe to be used in rooms with smoke alarms. Great question. 💛
Hi, do they still sell the Ucheer Air purifier? Or was it discontinued? If discontinued, would you be able to recommend something similar? Thanks.
Hi, thank you for your question! Ucheer is not available at the moment but here's a great alternative: Pure Enrichment PureZone Mini Portable Air Purifier - amzn.to/47rbtPQ (affiliate link*)
What’s the difference between ozone and the ionizer?
In short, ozone machines sanitize by generating ozone but require caution, while ionizers help clean the air by removing particles without producing harmful gases.
ummm , ozone breaks down the air at a molecular level, not really the cellular level, more or less.
Do ozone machines affect electronics? Computers, tablets, tvs, etc?
Great question. Here is an electrical engineering forum that has a discussion about this very topic. electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/144230/ozone-and-electronic-equipment
Ucheer products don't seem to be offered any more on Amazon! Do you have a replacement option for the car air purifier? Thank you for your amazing content!!!
Hmm, not off the top of my head. I would have to check on that. Thanks or the heads up.
what should i do if the client has a fish tank in the room? is it safe?
Nina, Fish are pets and according to the EPA website “ conditions should be sufficiently controlled to insure that no person or pet becomes exposed. Ozone can adversely affect indoor plants, and damage materials such as rubber, electrical wire coatings and fabrics and art work containing susceptible dyes and pigments (U.S. EPA, 1996a).”
Resource: www.epa.gov/indoor-air-quality-iaq/ozone-generators-are-sold-air-cleaners
Boo yah! You got a new subscriber. Thanks
Thanks for the sub! You just made my day. 👏👏👏
Are these safe to use if you have pets in the house? I can’t take the 2 cats out easily.
Anything that emits ozone is not safe for your pets. 🐱 🐶
I wonder if it will also eliminate my diffusers scent? Doesn’t anyone know?
Yes it will.
They are great odor removers. If you give it a try please let me know the results.
Hello, Will ozone kill fleas? ( I have fleas in my house)
It might - but it's not designed to be a bug zapper. It creates the same stinky damp smell you find after a rain storm. And like a rain storm after the stinky smell wears off everything smells fresh and new again. If you've used bug spray to kill the fleas - the ozone generator will remove the smell of the chemicals.
How do we wash the walls ceiling and floors cigarette 🚬 it’s extremely bad and it’s in a home I wanted to purchase. It in my price range and not many are.
Great question. Here is a video from a homeowner who smoked for 15 years in his home and then tried to sell it - th-cam.com/video/sHtF4t3FQuM/w-d-xo.html
I would love to know the pluses and minuses of the different types of technology used in these machines.
There are probably newer models on the market now, I think this video is a couple years old now. Amazon reviews are a great place to start for pluses and minuses of different type of machines. Lots of the reviews will tell you what other users found helpful about the units. And of course, the individual manufacturer websites usually cover the specs in great details.
One question Angela - have you personally tested each of these units or you just chose them based on the review rating on amazon store?
Great question. In order for a product to make it on our list, there is a rigorous process it must go through. We (myself or someone on the Savvy Cleaner team) tries it under a variety of scenarios to help us understand the durability, and possibilities of its use. We then decide if the product(s) are better suited for a homeowner, a professional house cleaner, or a specific market like kids or seniors. Amazon reviews can be purchased and verification of ownership isn't always available so while that does influence some - it's not always the best metric for us to rely on when recommending a brand.
Bravo 👏🏽
Thank you for your bravo and thanks for watching. 🙂
Biocide really helped with dead animal smell under my house and garage.
Thanks for sharing. 👍
This is great but it seems like they have wildly different purchases and I'm not sure which one to buy?
There are some here that eat odors, some that filter air and some that ionize air. Three very different types of machines depending on what you need, the size of your home and your lifestyle.
@@AskAngelaBrown Thank you for the reply! :)
Thanks just made my order
Enerzen Ozone Generator = magic for your old car. Far more effective than perfumed cardboard pine trees dangling from your rearview mirror. Clean your car good. Clean all hard surfaces with your fave cleaner. Use carpet cleaner and a shopvac to clean all the upholstery and carpet. Vacuum everything first, including under the seats. Then scrub down all those carpeted and upholstered areas with diluted carpet cleaner and a scrub brush, and use the shopvac as an extractor. Let it all dry thoroughly. Then run the ozone generator in the car. Twice in the passenger cabin; once in the front area for 30 minutes. Let that sit for an hour. Then air out the car for a couple hours. Then 20 minutes in the rear seat area, and again let it sit for an hour then air out the car. If you have a trunk, or in an SUV have an enclosable rear storage area, run it there for another 20 minutes. You’ll be shocked at the difference.
Great tip. Thanks for sharing. They do work really well for every area I've used them in.
Plants help too!
Thanks for watching my video and commenting. ❤️
Angela Brown No problem, thank you for all of this wonderful information! You rock! ❤️
What if animals are in your home 24/7?
I assume we are talking about using the ozone generator in a home with pets? (Paid link: amzn.to/3A8ydp6 - this is the one I have) Can you crate them in a room for a few hours? If yes, put them in a room with food and water and a litter box and close the door. At the bottom of the closed door, roll a wet towel to block air from entering under the door. Make sure the vent in the room the animals are in has a vent cover. (Paid link amzn.to/3TxvQTo - they look like this). Run the ozone generator in the rest of the house. When the ozone dies down and the air is back to normal, let the pets out.
@@AskAngelaBrown I don’t think I want that risk
I don’t see the link for the Ucheer
Ucheer is not available at the moment but here's a great alternative: Pure Enrichment PureZone Mini Portable Air Purifier - amzn.to/47rbtPQ (affiliate link*)
Ozone machines can not be shipped to California.
That's unfortunate.
Can ozone generators get rid of cat pee odors in carpet?
+lohengrinknight Great question the answer is yes it can help dissolve the odors caused from animal pee. However, if the animal is peeing on the carpet there’s a different issue going on there an ozone generator will not be able to cure. Beyond training, you may want to have the animal checked at the vet to make sure there are no internal health conditions that are causing this to happen. 😻
@@AskAngelaBrown thanks for the quick reply. My cat is stressed out because she can't go outside now that it's so cold. She used to live out all the time with her previous owner, and she pees on the carpet,boxes or plants if she can't go outside.
Perfect
Thanks for your feedback and thank you for watching the video.🙂

That’s a sad comment about nursery odor. 🤣 Diaper Genie, and open the windows to air the room out. Does anyone use cloth diapers? Years ago there was a deodorizing tablet that fit into a holder on the inside of the diaper pail lid.
Thanks so much for sharing. 👍
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks. :-)
About 20 minutes into the video... you do not handle a cat like that! The way that person dragged it by the front leg and forced it to stay! Omg that poor cat! I'm so sorry Angela, but that just triggered the animal lover in me! I have a beautiful, well pampered, 8 year old ginger and white cat, we've had him since he was 10 weeks old, who looks similar, and he has moved with us a few times and he loves all of us because I have taught my special needs children how to be gentle, loving, and that he is part of this family too, he's my baby too, and we all feed him and take care of him. Even his vet said she can tell he's a well loved family member!
I can't watch that, I LOVE cats.
Get an ozone machine. Thank me later.
Thanks for the tip!
"Woke" Christmas wrap? Gimme a break.
