Ozone Systems:

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON THE USE OF OZONE

Q.- What is Ozone?

Expressed as O3, Ozone is a gaseous form of concentrated oxygen that   is heavier than air.

Q.- Will Ozonated water keep plants healthy?

Ozone is the most effective and complete bactericide of all Earths measurable elements. Ozonated water improves plant health by destroying disease-causing microbes such as fungi, pathogenic bacteria, viruses and organochlorines that reduce plant yields, while aiding beneficial aerobic bacteria.

Q.- How does the Ozone come into contact with the water?

The unit is supplied with an ozone reactor tube which is the most effective way to introduce the Ozone. The unit has to used with an air pump ( not supplied ).

Q.- How is Ozone produced in the Ozone Genie?

Inside the Ozone chamber of the Ozone Generator, air is drawn through a highly efficient cool blue corona source operating at a precise voltage , which instantly converts oxygen 02 into activated oxygen or Ozone O3.

Q.-How does Ozone remove unwanted odors?

The Ozone produced by the Ozone Generator  passes through the water. This neutralizes unwanted odors that is caused by decaying material suspended or in solution with in the water, by a process called oxidization. 

Q.- What is the output of the Ozone Generator?

Approx 0.54mg of Ozone is produced per litre of air passing through the unit. 

Q.- Is the Ozone system still effective in high humidity environments?

Yes. Provided the feed air is passed through  moisture absorbing crystals.

Q.- Is the Ozone Generator free of regular maintenance procedures?

Yes, there are no moving parts to wear out and no electrodes or filters to clean.

Q.- Does the Ozone system alleviate the need for aquarium style air bubblers?

Yes. 

Q.- Can the ozone produced by the Ozone Generator Generator be harmful?

Provided the Ozone is introduced into the water using the Ozone reactor and  adequate ventilation is maintained correctly, The ozone levels will be with in the COSH safety levels. You should avoid breathing concentrated Ozone.

Q.- Can the Ozone System damage plants and equipment?

No. If the unit is installed correctly.

Q.- For how long should the Ozone Generator be run?

Ozone will only remain in the water for approximately twenty minutes before reverting to oxygen. For maximum benefit , run the Ozone  System 24 hours a day.

Q.- How long does the Corona head last?

The Ozone Genie Ozone Generator has a high quality corona discharge head, which greatly increases the life span of the unit. Minimum head life is 200,000 hours for a system running 24 hours a day.

.- Can the Ozone Generator control algae in outdoor fish ponds?

Yes, in conjunction with a filter and air pump, you can have clear pond water and healthier pond plants. (Pond must be in a well ventilated area and minimum recommended water volume is approx. 300 litres. The Ozone Generator should be mounted vertically, above the water level in a weather protected location.)
