Is ozone safe?

Yes. Ozone is naturally occurring in our atmosphere. It protects us from harmful UV rays emitted from the sun. Ozone was first discovered in the late 1700’s. Ozone has been readily studied, so a great deal is known about it. Its’ ability to neutralize or sterilize water was later discovered. Ozone can naturally be used to destroy bacteria, viruses and odours in water.

What is ozone?

Ozone is simply oxygen with an extra atom. (O3) Because Ozone has an extra atom it is extremely reactive when exposed to other elements/chemicals. Ozone likes to attach itself to other molecules like those found in bacteria or viruses. When Ozone makes contact with them their chemical structure is altered. This process is called Oxidation.

Does ozone remain in my water?

No. As soon as Ozone is dispensed it begins to revert back to oxygen. When Ozone (O3) is introduced to your water it attaches itself to any bacteria or virus molecule and “passes” on its extra atom (oxidation). Once this has occurred Ozone has only 2 atoms remaining, turning it back into (O2) Oxygen!

Is it environmentally responsible?

Yes! Disinfection without use of any chemicals. Your IRONBLASTER™ ozone system prevents any bacterial build up when treating raw water, that may contain bacteria or undesirable contaminants. This is also why the IRONBLASTER™ is safe for use in septic beds.

Note: Ozone is effective for Bacteria but the IRONBLASTER is not to be a sole source of disinfection .
