Room Ozonation in Phuket: When You Actually Need It
What ozonation actually does
Ozone neutralizes odors (tobacco, mold, pets) and some surface microorganisms, but it doesn't remove visible dirt or the mold source itself тАФ it's a supplement to cleaning, not a replacement for it.
Safety: the room needs to be vacated
The ozone concentration needed for real treatment is harmful to breathe тАФ standard practice is to leave the room during treatment (usually 1-3+ hours) and let it ventilate afterward before going back in.
When it's worth it
It makes sense if a smoker previously stayed in the room, there's a musty smell after the rainy season, or a pet odor. For an already clean, odor-free room, paying for ozonation "just in case" isn't necessary.
A safer way to order
Request it through a catalog with a fixed price тАФ you know the cost and treatment time upfront, rather than negotiating on the spot.
