Automotive Ozone Generators
The secret weapon professional detailers use to eliminate impossible odors. Turn smoker cars into fresh inventory. Remove pet smells instantly.
Why Detailers Trust Ozone
Every auto detailer knows the frustration: you’ve cleaned every surface, shampooed the carpets, and used every odor eliminator on the market — but the smell is still there. That’s because traditional cleaning can’t reach where odors hide.
Cigarette smoke embeds in headliners, dashboard vents, and seat foam. Pet odors soak into carpet padding. Mold grows inside air conditioning systems. Sprays and shampoos only touch the surface.
Ozone is a gas that goes everywhere air goes. It penetrates every crack, crevice, vent, and fiber in the vehicle — destroying odor molecules at the source. That’s why professional detailers, car dealers, and rental companies rely on ozone generators to make vehicles smell factory-fresh.
Vehicle Types We Treat
Cars & Sedans
Standard vehicles respond quickly to ozone treatment. Most cars can be fully deodorized in 30-60 minutes with our 20,000+ mg/h units.
Trucks & SUVs
Larger cabin space requires more ozone output. We recommend 30,000 mg/h or higher for trucks, SUVs, and extended cab vehicles.
RVs & Campers
RVs combine living space challenges with vehicle odors. Treat for mold, cooking smells, sewage odors, and musty storage compartments.
Boats & Marine
Mold, mildew, fish odors, and that distinctive “boat smell.” Ozone is perfect for enclosed marine cabins and storage areas.
Commercial Vehicles
Buses, delivery vans, ambulances, and work trucks. High-traffic commercial vehicles need regular ozone treatment to stay fresh.
Rental Fleet
Turn vehicles faster with ozone. Eliminate evidence of previous renters quickly and maintain customer satisfaction.

How to Treat a Vehicle with Ozone
Pre-Clean the Vehicle
Remove trash, vacuum thoroughly, and clean surfaces. Ozone eliminates odors but won’t remove physical dirt or stains. The cleaner the vehicle, the better the results.
Position the Ozone Generator
Place the unit in the vehicle cabin — on the seat or floor. For severe A/C odors, position near the intake vent. Close all windows and doors.
Run A/C on Recirculate
Turn the vehicle on (or use a battery maintainer) and set A/C to recirculate mode. This pulls ozone through the entire ventilation system.
Set Treatment Time
Use the built-in timer. Light odors: 15-30 minutes. Moderate: 30-60 minutes. Severe smoke: 2-4 hours or multiple treatments.
Ventilate
After treatment, open all doors and windows for 15-30 minutes. Run A/C on fresh air mode to flush the system. Ozone converts back to oxygen quickly.

💡 Pro Detailer Tips
- Replace cabin air filter after heavy smoke treatment — it traps odor particles that ozone destroys in the air.
- Treat the trunk separately if it has odor issues — close off from cabin and place unit inside.
- For stubborn headliner smoke, use a higher output unit and longer treatment. Headliners absorb more smoke than any other surface.
- Run A/C on MAX for 10 minutes during treatment to push ozone deep into the evaporator coil where mold hides.
- Offer “ozone included” packages for premium detailing — it’s a differentiator competitors can’t match without the equipment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will ozone damage the vehicle interior?
At recommended treatment levels, ozone is safe for all vehicle interiors including leather, vinyl, cloth, plastic, and electronics. For extremely long treatments (8+ hours), natural rubber components like weatherstripping may be affected, but this is rarely necessary.
How long until the vehicle is safe to drive?
After ventilating for 15-30 minutes, the vehicle is completely safe. Ozone naturally converts to oxygen (O2) quickly — it doesn’t leave any residue or chemicals behind.
Can customers wait during treatment?
Yes, but they should wait outside the vehicle or in your waiting area. The treatment area should be ventilated. Most detailers schedule ozone treatments while performing other services.
What if the smell comes back?
If the source of the odor wasn’t removed (like pet urine soaked into carpet padding), the smell may return. Pre-cleaning is essential. For stubborn odors, a second treatment usually achieves complete elimination.
