looks interesting.

"Effective against bacteria, mold spores, VOC compounds and particles"

even if it doesn't get rid of smells might be helpful to maintain a clean tent and prevent mould in damp conditions.

can be bad for the ozone apparently.

Hey old toke,

I do not use this product but I have used ozone for odour control and for me it worked well when the ozoneator was within my exhaust ducting and not actually within my growspace. Ozone can be created by ultraviolet light or an electrical discharge. I have used both methods to create ozone but prefer the simpler method of UV light. I had many technical issues with the electrical discharge device and although it did work, when the plant odour was at its peak the device struggled to manage. As TSJ states ozone 'can be bad for the ozone apparently' which is correct. It is also harmful to our own respiratory system, so be aware. DO NOT BREATHE IT IN!!!

When I am using it I must switch the device off, give it 1/2 an hour to allow the ozone to diminish before I enter the space.

Using UV light within your growspace is a bad idea as it will mess with the plant's light timings, hence my use of it within the ducting, away from the plant itself.

 

Upon looking at reviews of this particular product it seems the quality maybe an issue http://www.productreview.com.au/p/ionmax-tower-ionic.html

 

Hope it helps
