Ozone treatment is the use of the gas ozone (O3) to remove odors, bacteria, and VIRUSES from
your vehicle. Your detailer will place an ozone generator in the ventilation system of your
vehicle, and as the gas permeates your car, odours are neutralized and any bacteria and viruses
are killed. Ozone treatments are the best possible option when you are worried about the
sterilization of your vehicle. As a gas, it can reach far under seats, saturate upholstery
fibers, and reach all the nooks and crannies that you cannot.
It is absolutely
necessary you replace your cabin air filter with a new one. If you keep the old
one in, even after we do the entire odor removal process, once you turn on your
AC, all the trapped smoke odor in the filter will circulate right back into the
interior.
As part of any normal detail service, we sanitize all interior surfaces of your vehicle. But what
about the air inside your vehicle and deep inside the ventilation system? That is where an Ozone Treatment
comes into play.
Ozone is the most powerful sterilant in the world. Ozone uses the chemical reaction of
oxidation to break down unwanted molecules. O3 is an unstable molecule that, when it comes into contact
with any other type of molecule, will destroy it through the process of oxidation. Bacteria and viruses are
destroyed when ozone comes into contact with the cell wall and breaks it down on a molecular level,
effectively destroying the cell entirely.
After the detailing of your vehicle is complete, we activate
our Ozone Generator inside of your vehicle for between 30 minutes and 4 hours and up to overnight if needed,
which guarantees the best possible neutralization of viruses and bacteria that may have collected over all
of your years of ownership.
We then will open your vehicles windows and doors for 1 hour to let the ozone out and fresh air in.
