How to Remove Unwanted Odors From Your Home?

Lingering odors in your home can be caused by many things that can leave an unpleasant and embarrassing odor. Home odors can be extremely difficult to remove without the proper equipment.

Home Odors

Home odors develop from small amounts of foreign substances such as tobacco smoke, pets, cooking, moisture, mold, and body odors. These odors can get trapped in the surrounding area or could be spread throughout the house through the air ducts. These odors and vapors are not only in the air but adhere to the walls, ceilings, cabinets, and crevices. They can be embedded in the carpets, furniture, drapes, and clothing, as well as in the bathroom, kitchen, and closets. Cleaning will not remove the odor completely, so in order to properly remove the odor, you must remove the trapped odors. An ozone generator will completely and permanently remove any odor from your home without covering up the smell.

Don’t Mask The Odor

Many people will use air fresheners to remove odors from their home, however, this will only add a new sent to the odor. The problem with an air freshener is that they are adding new smells to the area without removing the bad odors. It will only be masking the problem without removing the odor. That’s why you should get a professional cleaning with an ozone generator.

Ozone Generator

An ozone generator is a great home odor eliminator because it attacks odors at their source. Permanent home odor removal with ozone will remove all microorganisms from the air and also remove any mold or mildew that may be present.

An ozone generator will not only remove pet odors, but other troublesome odors caused by mold and mildew, fire, water damage, and others. You’ll want to hire a professional ozone expert, like BioShock, to perform a shock treatment to remove all odors from your home. It’s crucial to hire a professional because it can become dangerous to try to remove odors yourself. During a shock treatment, any humans, pets, or plants will have to leave the area until the treatment is complete.

How It Works

An ozone generator releases ozone or O3 into the air. Ozone (O3) is comprised of 3 oxygen molecules, leaving the compound relatively unstable. The extra oxygen molecule will react to the molecules in the air that are causing the odor. As the ozone loses its 3rd molecule, it will turn back into the oxygen we breathe. This process varies on the affected area and can take anywhere from 8-24 hours. Once treatment is completed, you’ll be able to return to your home and there will be no trace of odors.

Steps To Eliminate Home Odors:

Remove and wash all fabrics
Clean all visible surfaces
Use an ozone generator to remove odors from the air and hard to reach surfaces
Seal the affected area to prevent future odors from forming
Paint the area if necessary
