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 — 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 — 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 — you know the cost and treatment time upfront, rather than negotiating on the spot.
