Why do air doctors smell?
If an air purifier starts to smell like chlorine or some other type of heavy cleaner scent, this is most likely because it is producing ozone. Ozone is a gas that is made of three oxygen molecules. Air purifiers, particularly if they are ionic air purifiers, will create ozone as a byproduct as they work.
Does the Air Doctor emit ozone?
Air Doctor emits no ozone with the ionizer off and less than 0.005 parts per million with the ionizer on. The recommended upper limits for ozone exposure is 0.050 PPM. If ozone is of concern we recommend that the user does not activate the ionizer while using Air Doctor.
