Device for the destruction of fungus and odor. How to remove mold with ozone. Features of the use of ozonizers on an industrial scale

Specialists of the Ozone Zone company carry out a number of activities aimed at the destruction of mold and the removal of fungal formations in residential and non-residential premises. We use modern equipment and the latest technology for ozonation of rooms, which effectively act not only on vegetative forms of fungi, but also on their spores in the air.

Ozone effectively destroys mold!

Mold can cause great harm to the human body! With constant contact with mold, it enters the bronchi, lungs, nasal mucosa, thereby causing an allergic reaction, asthma and other diseases. Signs of fungal mold are usually black spots on the walls and ceilings of the room. A fairly common occurrence in many apartments. If you find signs of mold in the room, we recommend that you immediately contact a specialist, because every lost minute can lead to irreversible consequences.


How to deal with mold? It is almost impossible to get rid of mold that has already arisen by "folk" methods. You can try to wash, scrape, paint over annoying black spots, but the effect of this will be short-lived ... You will only remove visible mold colonies, but their deep-seated spores are not available and they will soon grow and destroy all the coatings applied to them, so work on the destruction of fungal formations requires the intervention of specialists.

Only professional treatment of the premises with ozone guarantees complete removal of fungal growths!

Modern methods of ozone treatment of premises, the latest efficient equipment that we use in our work are absolutely safe for people and animals, and do not affect the appearance of the treated surfaces in any way.


The disinfection procedure will not take you much time (only 30-60 minutes). For the complete destruction of mold formations, an additional 2-3 weekly treatments are needed!

Benefits of ozone disinfection:

  • After treatment with ozone, the room does not need to be cleaned, and there is no need to wash the dishes. All surfaces and objects in the room will be completely sterilized!
  • After treatment with ozone, no unpleasant odors and harmful chemical compounds will remain in the room!
  • Ozone, filling the entire volume of the room, and penetrating into all hard-to-reach places, effectively destroys mold!
  • Ozonation - one solution for five problems: elimination of unpleasant odors, disinfection, disinfestation, deratization and destruction of mold spores, in just one ozone treatment!

Before ozonation, you need:

  • Remove pets from the premises.
  • Move fresh flowers and plants out of the room.
  • Leave the room for the duration of treatment (+ 30-60 min).

Removing mold or fungus from a room of any type is a difficult task for both a simple layman and experienced professionals. Pathogenic microflora actively hosts, spreading quickly and eating into the pores of any surface. If favorable conditions are created for the initial appearance of mold and fungus (humidity, poor ventilation), then the scale of reproduction can be unpredictable. Soon, such a neighborhood will adversely affect the health of the inhabitants of the infected object.

One of the methods of combating mold and fungi is the ozonation of the premises, which is used by professionals in combination with other effective means. The service "removal of mold and fungi with ozone" will be discussed in our article.

You can’t hesitate if health is expensive

The first foci, even minimal ones, cannot be ignored. The result of disinfection of infected surfaces and people's health depend on the reaction of the owner of the premises where the mold or fungus has settled.

To eliminate mold or fungus, there are many disinfectants that are freely sold in specialized stores. But it is better not to deal with this problem on your own, but to order a mold and mildew removal service from professionals. Specialists have in their arsenal all available means and scientific knowledge about the vital activity of these microorganisms and their favorite places of settlement.

Mold appears not only in residential areas, where there are conditions for its formation:

  • Foods that begin to spoil if purchased more than a person can eat. Vegetables and fruits, even from their own site, can become moldy due to improper collection or storage conditions.
  • Dampness in places of personal hygiene (bathroom and toilet), in the kitchen, in the corner room, if the outer wall is poorly protected from external influences.
  • Apartments on the first and last floor are also a place for mold and fungi to spread if there is high humidity in the basement or attic and this problem is not eliminated.

Regardless of what caused the appearance of fungi that multiply rapidly and form large colonies, this is a dangerous neighborhood for humans. Mold forms on the surface, but fungal spores can scatter around the perimeter of the room and easily enter the respiratory system. Accumulating in the lungs and penetrating into the lung tissue, mold spores can provoke an allergy in the form of a cough and lead to asthma.

The fight against mold and fungi with special preparations based on chemicals is not always effective. The problem is back, because mold fungi attack not only the top layer of the object, but also penetrate into its deep pores. Chemicals are not able to penetrate so deeply into the structure of the material. Only the tip of the iceberg is destroyed without the base. The fungus divides again and comes to the surface, forcing you to repeat the manipulations to remove traces of mold in the room.

This procedure can be done forever, spending a lot of money, time and health on the fight against mold. Selling such a room is also quite problematic, so you need to order an ozonation service to kill mold and fungi once and for all.

Why is ozone more effective in fighting mold?

Ozone is a strong oxidizing agent of natural origin that changes the cellular structure of biological organisms. Fungi are a special form of life endowed with cells.

  1. When ozone comes into contact with these cells, a reaction occurs that destroys fungal cells and spores from the inside. As a result, cell division stops and microorganisms die, not having the opportunity for a new stage of development. Chemicals also destroy the mold, but only the part that has come to the surface, not being able to get to its root.
  2. Another positive aspect of removing mold and fungus with ozone is the speed of the result. The gas oxidizes mold and fungus cells, kills their spores in a matter of minutes, which cannot be noted with chemical reagents.
  3. When generated by an ozonizer, ozone gas fills the entire volume of the treated room, penetrating even into those places where disinfecting tools with chemicals cannot reach without first dismantling interior items. If mold has formed in the joints of tiles, under a baseboard, false ceiling or floor covering, ozone penetrates deep into any material and destroys the cellular structure of pathogenic microflora.
  4. After ozonation of the premises, it will not be necessary to do a general cleaning to remove the unpleasant odor from chemicals. Ozone cleans the air not only about mold spores, but also eliminates specific odors, kills viruses and other bacteria.

To consolidate the result, the “ozone mold removal” procedure should be repeated 2-3 times after a certain time.

If mold and fungus have settled in your house, apartment, office, and household disinfection methods do not give a positive result, call us and get advice on the modern method of combating pathogenic microflora using ozone.

Mold is a fungus whose spores are carried by air, forming colonies under conditions most favorable for its development. Places with high humidityare the most favorable for mold growth. discover mold spores in the air, with the naked eye, is impossible and only when for the fungusfavorable conditions are created, the mycelium begins to multiply and mold appears on the walls.

Under natural conditions, mold plays an important role (it contributes to the decay of fallen leaves and other organic matter). indoors mold growth unacceptable , otherwise it will quickly become the cause of dangerous diseases - bronchial asthma, emphysema, allergy.

Mold is a strong allergen causing a range of different reactions, including: red eyes, hay fever (runny nose and sneezing), dermatitis(skin rashes), dizziness.

As it grows unhindered, mold can turn into a toxic substance.You cannot prevent mold spores from entering the room from the outside, but they can be destroyed with integrated air regeneration systems - air cleaners ActivTek .

Four kinds ionization precipitate spores from the air, and Active Pure technology destroys mold on surfaces. pluggable ozone generation unit Ecotech , if necessary, quickly eliminates the smell of mold or dampness.

Mold on the walls formed in constantly damp, humid conditions - bathrooms, showers - this cannot be allowed . Prevent mold growth on walls it is possible to regularly clean the affected areas, but in most cases this is not feasible and the help of professionals is required to carry out room disinfection.

Hidden Mold


Mold
not always visible visually. For example, mold often grows on the back or inside the wallpaper, mold "likes" to live on the wall under the clapboard, as well ason the ceiling, under the ceiling tiles. Mold on the wall forms around pipes and behind furniture, mold is found under floorboards and under linoleum. mold in ventilation is also not uncommon, since all the conditions for its reproduction are created in the air channels.Unfortunately, the spread of mold in a latent form is not uncommon. Nobody noticed mold grows quickly , affects large areas and only complaints

on the health status of households, they tell you about the deterioration of the microclimate.

Remember- unpleasant mildew smell is the first sign that mold settled in your house even if it is not visible .

Mold cleaning methods

The Internet is replete with many methods for the destruction of mold in the home. Let's see what.

  1. Remove mold from affected areas;
  2. Clean moldy plaster from walls;
  3. Sand the affected area with sandpaper or a disc;
  4. Treat the cleaned area with a bactericidal solution or copper sulfate.

Instead of a bactericidal solution, "craftsmen" also offer treat mold mycelium with bleach, concentrated chlorine solution, vinegar, peroxidehydrogen and other folk remedies, like burning walls with a gas burner.

Why traditional methods of fighting mold do not help


Mushroom or mold roots
, as a rule, is located deep inside the wall or other surface on which the fungus has appeared. Any of the bactericidal solutions oranother toxic liquid has its own molecular volume, which is larger than the pores moldy surfaces. Respectively mycelium mold does not come into contact with the chemical compound of the solution and does not die, but only stops during the decay of the chemical formula of the bactericidal solution.

After the bactericidal solution loses its toxicity to the mold mycelium, it becomes active, comes to the surface, destroys the whitewash and elementsroom finishing. It is necessary to destroy the mold mycelium hidden inside the pores of the surface - It is impossible to solve this problem with all kinds of solutions.

How to deal with mold

For development effective mold control method necessary:

  1. Conduct close monitoring reasons contributing to the appearance of mold on the walls and air premises;
  2. Measure air humidity and (if necessary) determine the source contributing to its increase;
  3. Define and eliminate the source of the appearance and spread of mold by premises;
  4. Determine the cause of mold and eliminate ;
  5. Clean mold from walls (or other surfaces) to the base;
  6. Carry out bactericidal treatment cleaned surface;

You can carry out this work yourself or turn to professionals. mold destruction Active Pure, You can .

Mold location analysis revealed one pattern - mold is actively developing where there is a problem with high humidity and the first task is to remove excess
moisture from the air of the problematic room. Air dehumidification is carried out by eliminating or minimizing wet processes in the room and / or increasing the multiplicity air exchange.

Simply ventilating problem areas won't help. , would need installation of supply and exhaust ventilation or install a heat exchanger that economically more profitable. The organization of constant air exchange will allow to dry the air of the room, and create conditions less favorable for mold growth.


Before mechanical cleaning mold from walls it is necessary to kill the spores of the fungus in the air. Then clean the walls (all areas affected by mold) beforehanddestroying the mold itself. Destruction of visible mold produced by bactericidal or chemical solutions, but practical experience shows that it is betteruse the service of ozonation of the premises (ozonation) and guaranteed kill mold on surfaces and in the air at the same time.

The company "Live Air" provides services in Moscow and the Moscow region for the destruction of mold in the air and on surfaces with advanced technology + Active Pure technology . Destruction of a mold is made without dispersion of chemicals and reagents. Airborne Mold Killing Efficiencyup to 99.999%, removal of mold mycelium from surface pores up to 99.999%. Order a set of works for the destruction of mold , using fast cleaning technology and mold destruction Active Pure, You can .

Cleaning walls from mold includes: mechanical cleaning of the area affected by the fungus and bactericidal mold removal base of the affected area.

To carry out work onit is not necessary to contact specialists for mechanical cleaning of walls from mold - you can carry out these works personally, but taking precautions: change clothesin special clothing (dispose of after work), wear safety goggles, use protective gloves and shoes, as direct contact with mold cancause burns and allergic reactions, wear a respirator. Mechanical cleaning of walls from mold is carried out to the base, completely eliminating visiblemold manifestations.

After cleaning the base kill mold fungus which is deep inside. For this it is necessary ozonize the room within 6-36 hours (the time depends on the area of ​​surfaces affected by mold and the depth of penetration of the mycelium).

Ozonation produced by a simple ozonizer or can be order service enhanced cleaning from mold - EcoTech ozonation technology + Active Pure technology . This procedure guarantees the cleaning of pores from fungus, mold and mycelium. After completing all the indicated work, you can safelystart repair.

ATTENTION!!! remember, that Explicit and hidden mold on the walls is a serious danger to your health! Do not allow mold to appear in residential and domestic premises!

Live well and be happy!

Interacts with the membrane structure of the cells of bacteria, fungi, the structural unit of viruses, which leads to a violation of its barrier function and their death.

Doses and concentrations must be selected depending on the processed products, the volume of the premises and other technical conditions and nuances of production.

Application of ozone

  • Ozone is used to remove mold in vegetable stores. The experimentally established optimal ozonation regime: for 2000 m3 of premises 4 - 6 hours of operation of the ozonizer (s) with a capacity of 50 - 60 g / h;
  • to eliminate the infection of strawberries with fungi and mold, it is enough to produce 1.5-2 g per processing time of 20 minutes every 1-2 days (per 100 m3 of storage at a temperature of 2-4 ° C and a relative humidity of 80-90%). For this, an ozonator with a capacity of 5-7 g / h is suitable;
  • To suppress the fungal infection seeding the grain of winter wheat, it is necessary to treat it with ozone at a dose of at least 20.0 g day/m3. Doses less than specified bring the grain out of dormancy, which is unacceptable when storing grain. In this case, for a storage facility with a volume of 1000 m3, it is necessary to install an ozonizer with a capacity of at least 900 g/h and carry out initial treatment for 1-3 days, and with further prevention - a day every 5-7 days;
  • Technologically acceptable mode of processing of feed contaminated with mycotoxins production of 10 - 12 for the processing time of at least 40 minutes;
  • Improving the air quality in the workplace. Air pollution is caused by the presence of mold spores in it. Mold spores in an inactive state are exposed to ozone much weaker than in an active form (when they begin to germinate). The optimal conditions will be when the humidity and temperature are sufficient to activate the mold spores. When the spores begin to germinate, they open the protective capsule and begin to breathe, absorbing ozone at that moment, which causes their death. Minimum conditions for activation of spores: air temperature from 1 - 4°C, humidity from 70% and above, nutrient medium. The suppression of fungal contamination in the presence of people, for example, in the food industry, should be carried out by maintaining the ozone concentration at the level of 0.1 - 0.2 mg/m3, controlled and maintained by special ozone analyzers.

Attention: these recommendations are a special case and the exact processing mode suitable for your purposes can only be determined experimentally, depending on the technical conditions and nuances of production. The choice of the necessary equipment depends on many factors, such as:

  • Target;
  • Quantity and type of pollutant;
  • The volume of the room;
  • Humidity;
  • Temperature;
  • Dustiness of the room;
  • The presence of other substances that can react with ozone.

One of the modern methods of treating fungus is ozone treatment (ozone therapy). The ozone (O3) molecule is made up of three oxygen atoms. Thanks to one free connection, she is very active. In relation to mycosis, ozone has many therapeutic functions and at the same time does not cause side effects, does not provoke allergies, and is well tolerated by patients. Fungi, as anaerobic bodies, cannot exist in a highly concentrated oxygen environment in principle.

Clinical effects of ozone therapy for mycosis

Ozone is released with a pronounced bactericidal, fungicidal effect, capable of destroying all pathogenic microorganisms without exception. Under the influence of ozone, the fungus becomes more susceptible to antibiotics, even intracellular microorganisms are deactivated.

The antimycotic effect of ozone is associated with its strong oxidizing ability. The oxidative reaction modifies the structure of the pathogen, deforms it. Defects occur in cell membranes, which inevitably leads to the destruction of the cell itself.

Oxidizing the compounds that provoke the inflammatory process, ozone negates the fungal inflammation itself. Entering the area of ​​inflammation, oxygen extinguishes the transmission of pain signal to the central nervous system, which provides an analgesic effect.

The substance also restores metabolism in tissues infected with a fungus, normalizes the acid-electrolyte balance. The action of free radicals is stopped, the skin retains moisture better and regenerates more actively.

Ozone eliminates unpleasant putrefactive odors, reduces itching and burning of the skin, promotes wound healing. The nail plate saturated with oxygen and ozone grows faster.

Under the influence of ozone, tissues consume glucose more actively. Vessels expand, blood fluidity improves, its oxygen capacity increases, membrane permeability increases, as a result of which tissues are more easily saturated with oxygen and nutrients, and oxygen deficiency (hypoxia) disappears. The transfer of oxygen to tissues is one of the main properties of ozone.

The substance intensifies renal filtration, thereby reducing the intoxication of the body with toxins secreted by the fungus.

Ozone stimulates the production of cytokines, thus strengthening cellular immunity. Having received additional protection, the skin and nail plates cope with fungal infection more easily and in shorter lines.

The substance acts instantly, within a few seconds. Any other disinfector provides the required result 300-3000 times slower. More importantly, even a small amount of ozone successfully copes with pathogenic microorganisms.

Disadvantages of ozone therapy

Despite its unequivocal advantages, ozone therapy is associated with certain difficulties. Ozone is unsuitable for storage or transportation, and therefore it is produced exclusively at the place of use from free gaseous oxygen. The remaining ozone quickly transforms back into oxygen. Being an oxidizing agent, ozone is toxic and belongs to the class of harmful substances.

Treatment with ozone is contraindicated in case of any internal hemorrhages, with reduced blood clotting, with organic disorders of the brain, with a tendency to convulsions, in a state of acute alcoholic psychosis.

External antimycotic ozone therapy

Ozone therapy has a wide range of possibilities. For the treatment of fungal infections, ozonized liquid and oil preparations, as well as gaseous ozone, are used.

With mycosis of nails and skin, ozonized oil is most often used, both for applications and for oral administration. Pharmacology also offers ozonated creams. Ozone-oxygen liquid mixtures are popular. They are used for compresses. After a 15-minute compress, an antimycotic cream or ointment should be applied to the affected area. As patients suffering from fungal infections say, a significant improvement in the condition occurs after the third procedure, and after a week the disturbing symptoms disappear almost completely.

Gaseous ozone is used for disinfection (highly concentrated), epithilization and skin healing (low concentrated).

Mud saturated with ozone activates systemic blood circulation, inhibits fungi and stimulates the healing of damaged areas. Galvanic mud therapy is very effective. A weak electric current passed through the mud improves the permeability of the upper layers of the skin for drugs.

Before ozonation with external means, it is advisable to do a professional hardware pedicure, followed by a three-day lubrication of the cleaned areas with salicylic ointment. With the help of this manipulation, calluses, coarseness, cracks are removed, the skin becomes soft and elastic. Old and rough skin not only creates discomfort, it is it that is the ideal habitat for dermatomycete fungi and, moreover, interferes with the absorption of medicines.

After ozone therapy, combined with applications, it is recommended to undergo a ten-fold short-spectrum ultraviolet irradiation, which also kills mycotic cells. This procedure is combined with mud therapy. Sulfide silty muds are quite effective.

Ozone injections

Subcutaneous and intradermal injections of small portions of ozone around the affected nail bed are practiced. This procedure stimulates blood and lymph flow, leads to saturation of tissues with oxygen. The clinical result is that inflammation subsides, tissue resistance to pathogens increases, and a new nail grows more intensively. Manipulations are carried out 10 times with a week-two-week break.

In severe cases of onychomycosis, its neglected forms require systemic therapy. For intravenous and intramuscular administration, ozonized saline is used. Ozone can be dissolved in the patient's blood.

Hardware ozone therapy of mycosis

In antifungal therapy, ozonizers occupy an important place. With their help, ozone can be dissolved in water, increasing its activity by almost 300 times. Easy to prepare ozonized oil. The spray nozzle is lowered into the container with the product and works for 15-20 minutes.

There are shoe polishers. Shoes are placed in a chamber where they are exposed to sprayed ozone and silver particles. In this way, more than 650 types of fungus can be completely destroyed and pathogens can be prevented from settling in shoes in the future.

Factors enhancing ozone therapy for mycosis

To increase the effectiveness of antimycotic ozone therapy, it is necessary to disinfect the nails by immersing them in therapeutic baths, perform antifungal applications, take antimycotics inside, reduce the consumption of sugar, which contributes to the development and spread of infection.

Treatment should be continuous and last until a new nail grows. It must be continued after the disappearance of the main symptoms of mycosis (at least two weeks), so that fungal spores that live in the body are not activated. To avoid the spread of the disease to healthy tissues, all affected areas should be treated at the same time.

Preventive measures are also required, in particular, disinfection of shoes (with a 40% solution of acetic acid, formalin, silver-containing preparations, a mixture of alcohols and essential oils, and other antiseptics).
