Ozone Generator Rental

I’m moving into a post-war house in Australia, built about seventy years ago. Although it’s been renovated to a large extent, the all too familiar old-house smell remains. I presume a mould check was done during renovation, but until I can confirm this, I’d like to sort this out. Given the original doors and limited renovation on the exterior, I presume it hasn’t been gutted, so that could be the source of the lingering aroma. I hear ozone generators are great at dealing with this, but to what extent? Should I be aware of anything, and what price range should I be looking at for a good one? It’s a rental and has had about three rounds of tenants pass through, so there is also some wear and tear, but that is the least of my concerns. submitted by /u/phatbootyrudy to r/HomeImprovement [link] [comments]

I’m pretty sure I can rent an ozone generator in Salinas at A1 Tool, but does anyone know of any place in the Monterey area that rents them? submitted by /u/Forest_finder to r/MontereyBay [link] [comments]

This is a serious question. No bullying. No gaslighting. I'm looking for advice. I live in a one bedroom apartment in a rental building in NYC. Smoking, candles, incense, air fresheners (you get the idea) are clearly NOT allowed. The lease specifically states that. My downstairs neighbor likes using a combination of candles, air fresheners, and some unknown scent that makes me cough. When I first moved in, I noticed that the smell was right under where I was sitting. It wasn't anywhere else in my apartment, so I just picked up my laptop and stuff and moved to another corner of my apartment. For a few minutes it was okay. But then, that smell moved to where I was sitting. So I moved elsewhere. And then that smell followed me there. If I go shower, that smell is in the bathroom for the duration of my shower. When I go to sleep, that smell is right under my bed for the amount of time that I am asleep. The worst is the kitchen, the smell comes up from the sink as I'm using the kitchen. I contacted: 1) Property management - who proceeded to distribute notices to every apartment in the building reminding people that the building does not allow smoking, candles, incense, air fresheners, etc. 2) Building super - apparently this downstairs guy is a known problem. The super is a nice guy but there's not much he can do about it. 3) Organization that owns the building (not the same as property management, which I think is weird but whatever) - one of the directors of the organization came into my apartment, smelled it, ran back out and complained on my behalf. The smell actually got worse for a few days. I know that either this downstairs candle lover needs to move out or I need to move out, but that's not going to happen immediately, so for the time being, what can I do? Edit: Air purifiers do not help. I have two. But thanks for the suggestion. I do not have olfactory hallucinations. I already indicated that others can smell it too. I have already indicated that others in the building know that this downstairs person is a particular problem. I specifically stated NO gaslighting at the top of my post. It's 28F and I have no intention of using a fan in the middle of winter. Summer is fine, but this doesn't work in the winter. Ozone generators can only be used in unoccupied spaces and the neighbor is using candles continuously. I can use the ozone spray which will remove the odor but only for a few minutes, because the continuous candle burning/air freshener will bring the odor right back. Every post has those people (u/Mental_Chip9096, u/Soushkabob) who thinks that it's fake. Okay. I'm not going to bend backwards to convince you that it's real because even if I do, I'm not getting anything out of it. The purpose of this post isn't to ask, "Does not allowing candles and air fresheners make sense?" The purpose of this post is to ask, "In this situation, what are some solutions?" I have asked lawyers and they suggested that I just move out since that's the easiest and lowest cost option. AS I HAVE ALREADY INDICATED, I am looking for a new apartment, but that's not happening with a snap of my fingers and I need a Band-Aid solution for the time being. I will not be replying to, updating, or checking this post. Thank you to those who tried. But as of December 2025, none of the comments below are helpful. I will leave this post up for other New Yorkers. Edit 2: I found a Band-Aid solution myself (no thanks to Reddit). I figured out that the smell was coming from up through the pipes. The kitchen is part of the living room so when the kitchen is not in use, I plug the kitchen sink (most sinks comes with their own plugs, if you don't have a plug, just put an entire bowl or lid over the sink opening). That cut out a lot of the smell. If the smell has already gotten in (because I can't plug the kitchen sink all day), I have to just put on a coat and open the windows to air it out. submitted by /u/lurker081625 to r/NYCapartments [link] [comments]

Hi Ottawa, I’m looking to rent a small ozone generator for a short period, ideally one of the compact units designed for use in cars. I recently bought a used vehicle that was cleaned with far too much air freshener, and I’m hoping an ozone treatment can help clear out the smell. From what I’ve read, running the right machine for about 30 minutes with proper safety precautions should be enough. I’d only need it for about an hour total. If you know of a local business or individual that offers short-term rentals of something suitable, I’d really appreciate the recommendation. I’m also open to any tips if you’ve done this kind of thing before. Thanks! submitted by /u/gcorneil to r/ottawa [link] [comments]

Hello, wondering if anyone knows of anywhere in the area that rents small ozone machines? A mouse got in my car a while back. I've had it professionally detailed twice and detail it myself twice and still can't seem to quite the animal scent out. Hoping an ozone generator could help. I've checked the Home Depot, World of Rentals, and Sunbelt rentals site and don't see the machines in there but wondering if there might be other places I'm not aware of.
