Chemical Odor Removal
Chemical Odor Removal Solutions
Chemical odors are not only unpleasant—they can signal unwanted substances in your environment. These odors are common after cleaning, renovations, DIY projects, or use of certain products, and while they often dissipate with ventilation, some can linger and become embedded in surfaces and materials.
Standard cleaning products and air fresheners typically mask these smells, rather than removing them at the source. Ozone and hydroxyl generator technology provide a greener alternative, neutralizing many stubborn odors without the need for additional fragrances or harsh chemicals. By generating ozone or hydroxyl radicals, these devices break down odor-causing molecules in the air and on surfaces.
Key Points:
-
Ozone generators are highly effective for many organic odors (like smoke, mold, mildew) but may not fully eliminate all chemical odors, especially at concentrations considered safe for occupied spaces.
-
For the strongest results, treat rooms with an ozone generator only when the space is unoccupied, and ventilate thoroughly before re-entry.
-
Hydroxyl generators are a safer option when continuous treatment is needed in occupied spaces, though they generally work more gradually.
-
Both options help neutralize odors without introducing new chemical residues.
If you need to be present in the space during treatment, choose a hydroxyl generator. For unoccupied deep treatments, especially for mold, mildew, and persistent organic odors—ozone generators are the preferred choice. Both technologies are widely used by professionals in hotels and property management for tackling tough odors.
