Question 1

If I leave it pluged I in do I need to regenerate the ozone?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your question.  For best results, spray within 30 minutes of ozone generation.

Question 2

How can you tell if the water actually works

Accepted Answer

There are 3 easy ways. Ozonated water is a proven technology so the only question is whether this device outputs enough ozone to make the water effective.  Proof of ozone's utility is the fact that ozonated water is used commercially to disinfect meat. And it's a common hot tub disinfectant

1) Spritz it on something malodorous. The ozonated water should oxidize the malodorous molecules leaving the item scent-free. Obviously, this won't work for everything. The instructions say that it works best on nonporous surfaces, but I also spritz it on clothes and furniture, like I would with Febreeze. Seems especially effective on the toilet and surrounding areas. Urine smells seem to disappear.

2) Spritz it on some strawberries. Some reports claim that strawberries last longer if soaked in ozonated water before storing. Compare these ozonated strawberries with non-ozonated ones. If the ozonated strawberries do last longer, you'll know it's working. If you really want to be scientific, you should also soak some strawberries in ordinary tap water. That way, you'll know that it's the ozone, and not ordinary water, that's prolonging they're freshness. Then compare the three groups to see if there's any difference. As a bonus, ozone may also break down pesticides. It should work on other fruits too, e.g. blueberries.

3) Buy ozone test strips used for testing hot tub water. If your water is chlorinated (like most municipal water), you'll need to dechlorinate it first by boiling for 20 mins. Let it cool to room temperature then fill into the Homedics bottle to ozonate. Afterwards, pour the water out into a container and test with a test strip.

Note that water must be dechlorinated for the strips to be accurate. Once you're convinced that it's producing enough ozone, you can go back to ordinary chlorinated tap water to use in the Homedics. You only need dechlorinated water for the test strips. But do not use distilled or filtered water because electrolytes must be present in the water for the Homedics to generate ozone.

Question 3

Where is this made?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your question.  The product is made in China.

Question 4

Can you pour the ozone water into another sprayer or will it lose effectiveness once the bottle is opened?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can. In fact, you can pour it into a container to disinfect food. Some reports say that strawberries and other berries last longer after being ozonated. Ozonated water can also oxidize some pesticides. If you soak produce, cover the container tightly so that the ozone doesn't dissipate as easily.

If you want to disinfect meats and seafood, do so in a disposable plastic bag. Ozonated water is used commercially to process meats. You can also spritz the water into the meat but soaking in a bag is more effective because the water can enter every nook and cranny, e.g. the cavity of a whole chicken.
