Discount Hydroponics - Ozone Generator


does anyone have an opinion on this thing

says up to 1000 sq ft - seems a little cheap to do that
how effective would it be in combo with a scrubber
and how big an area?

only use ozone if you are venting the air outside of your dwelling. the shit is toxic!

place the ozone generator inline with the exhaust, at least 15' from the end of the line. or put a couple 90's or a mixing box inline to give the 03 enough time to react with the VOC's

oh, yeah those things pretty much blow... i just now checked the link. you dont want ozone in your growroom, its toxic to plants and humans.

you can buy or build an inline corona discharge unit pretty cheaply. you need to run a hefty o3 generator to keep up with a live duct. 2000mg/hr i believe.

but like i said, only use ozone in the air being vented outside. and even then high levels of ozone has an odor of itself. very much like that of chlorine. this can alert neighbors and passer by's alike if you arent careful.

Discount Hydroponics - Ozone Generator

this one got better reviews but the specs say 5000 sq ft of area wtf
how best would this be used and for what area of space would it be mildly effective in combo w/ scrubber

also can these be used in sealed rooms w/o damage to the plants or build up that could be harmful?

looks like a piece of junk. anything that doesnt say the mg/hr output i'd be weary.

The 2nd one linked looks halfway decent.. 1000 mg /hr is good but it seems too cheap... scrubbers are much more worthwhile

i plan to put in a big as scrubber was thinking about adding the ozone (smaller) to help some - not to actually do a high %

i wondered if there was any success of using both for example

70% rely on scrubber
30% on ozone
or what ever you recommend based on experience

my theory (w/o any education or experience LOL) is that if the ozone levels are lower and not the major factor in cleaning air it wont be harmful to me or plants - more like a fail safe

also my grow is not in my house or attached to my house (detached garage/shed)

just wondered if a smaller type would give me a clean rain forest/ sterile type smell in grow area but not souly relied apon for odor control

in short!

what is the formula for ozone vs sq ft vs safe to breathe vs safe for plants

how many mg/hour/sq ft of area
