Well, be careful about making that assertion, since that is an area
of much controversy. Ozone is present in fresh outdoor air, so much so
that I can smell it when I go outside. The levels of ozone I keep
inside my house are so low that I can only really smell it when I
walk by an ozone generator. At those levels, it's perfectly fine,
and it keeps the smells from the pets away (which is why I'm using it
in the first place).
But I agree that one should keep the ozone generators away from where
pets may hang out, as they are more sensititive.
