Hydroxyl vs. Ozone Machines For Fire Damaged Concord Homes

With various materials that can combust in Concord housefires, the threat in each circumstance is unique for the professional restorers dispatched to start mitigation and recovery. Among the chief concerns of the technicians working to restore fire damage in a local home are airborne threats including contaminants, debris, soot, smoke, and other particulates. Additionally, houses must contend with the consequences of spreading harsh odors that can be challenging to overcome for even our skilled technicians.

Fortunately, there are a few cutting-edge pieces of equipment that can help to address both of these fire damages to Concord homes beginning as soon as SERVPRO professionals first arrive on the scene. In all, many units can play a role to address one or both of these problematic conditions for damaged homes and businesses, and these include:

    •    Thermal and UV Foggers
    •    Negative Air Machines
    •    Air Scrubbers
    •    HEPA Vacuums
    •    Ozone Machines
    •    Hydroxyl Generators

While this is a quick look at some of the units that can get used to address both odors and airborne contaminants and threats, none can do this job as effectively as the ozone and hydroxyl machines. Both of these units can work quickly to begin cleaning the air of an affected space while neutralizing odor compounds in the process.

Ozone machines have a widespread and productive output. Unfortunately, the ozone emitted by the unit is harmful to life – so it is not safe to use around humans and pets. For effective results, however, these are still a powerful and popular option. Hydroxyl generators break apart odor compounds in the environment but also work to draw air across a HEPA filter to reduce contaminants and particulates. These units are safe to use around pets and humans, allowing our SERVPRO professionals to continue working alongside these units on other tasks.

Effects like airborne contaminants and odors could be hazardous in the right conditions to homeowners, and even professional restoration technicians dispatched to help.
