Which ozone generator should I get

[ruff]

I need a small Ozone generator for small jobs and not very frequently.
However, I'd rather pay a little more if I get something better or more durable.
Which should I get?
Here are two models:

Or this: http://www.jondon.com/catalog/product_i ... s_id=22690

Is one better than the other?
Any other models that you used and really like? Links if you can, please.
Thanks

Can't say anything about the other, but I have the TZ-2 - 4 years, no issues, works like a charm, and has taken loads of abuse.

Ofer;

We like the ozone generator from one of the world's largest manufacturers of ozone equipment:

Sonizaire.

Larry,
What do you like better about that one?

Ofer we have 7-of this 2-gram a day model and 2-of their 4.5 gram a day model and 1-of the 8.5 gram a day model they no longer sell the those large one. We've been buying them for more than 10-years, they work great.

The only Con is that they do require maintenance, plates need cleaning after a couple of uses so they produce maximum ozone. They sell a cleaning kit that comes with extra plates too.

I have a couple of the maintenance free ozone machines and they work ok but don't compare in ozone output. They maybe be ok for infrequent use but when you need the some serious output we use the Rainbowair units.

I have one of these, best one I ever used in the under $1k category. Have rented and tried larger units that didn't come close.

I got a 4000 from air-zone about 6 years ago and the thing has been beat up pretty bad and still works well. For the $ if you compare mg/hr you cant get a better deal. http://airzone.reachlocal.com

Larry,
What do you like better about that one?

Better design high-voltage transformer, resists arc-over,

glass tube dielectric is easy to remove, and clean thoroughly,

filter for incoming air flow.

Used in a lot of "ozone rooms", that run for many hours.

gotta agree with Larry...use the Sonozaire...I use it for curry and cigarette smoke

I got a Sonizaire 330 for sale, Make you or who ever wants it a great deal .

 

[ruff]

That seems like a larger capacity one.
How old is it?
How much?

Sonozire has been around forever, at one time nearly ever restoration company had one or several of their units.

It's the first unit we bought back in the 70's, we use to have 5-of them and they work fine. You'll see a lot of them on trash compactors to keep the odor down. However unless someone is maintaining them, they probably are not doing what they are suppose to be doing. :mrgreen:

My only problem with them is their technology has not changed since the 70's. You take the cover off and you have a big box with a small fan glass tube and electrode and transformer. Pretty simple but it works.

I think the newer ozone units put out more grams per hour and are more compact.

I've had the 115A for years with no problems. I heard the 5G is much smaller and puts out more ozone http://sonozaire.com/products.htm

 

[Desk Jockey]

I'd not seen the 5-g before, I stand corrected.

5-Grams and hour is a monster, that's a lot of Ozone! :shock: :mrgreen:

 

[ruff]

Thank you all, I really appreciate it.
I was hoping for a consensus winner........... but no luck :mrgreen:

I guess it is like agreeing on what is the best upholstery tool

 

[Desk Jockey]

$100.00 on the "USED" upholstery tool. Final offer! :mrgreen:

 

[ruff]

With or without the benediction from Rome?

 

[Desk Jockey]

Just messin with ya! :mrgreen:

 

[The Great Oz]

I'll help skew the consensus toward Sonizaire. Rock-solid reliable, cleaning is easy.

 

[amygeorge]

Ofer, which machine did you purchase? I need to purchase one. Amygeorge

 

[dealtimeman]

amy if you want a tank go with the sonozair they are built like a tank and last forever!

 

[dealtimeman]

keep in mind, that with all the rain you are getting, you need to get more dehumidifiers.

 

[amygeorge]

Michael, it’s a great morning. 2-4 inches depending on location. Wish the job I got called out on would be a paying one. 3” of water - no insurance - and broker than me… Thanks for your suggestion on the machine. Amy

Wow you got a lot of rain!
