Where is the best location for ozone?

Ozone location. Most ozone (about 90%) is found in the stratosphere, which begins about 10–16 kilometers (6–10 miles) above Earth’s surface and extends up to about 50 kilo- meters (31 miles) altitude. The stratospheric region with the highest ozone concentration is commonly known as the “ozone layer” (see Figure Q1-2).

Do hotels use ozone machines?

Ozone purifying units are increasingly being used in hotel and motel rooms to “purify” the air and remove stale odors caused by food and beverages, tobacco smoke, mold, mildew and other elements. “Ozone reacts to the odor in the air and neutralizes it, leaving oxygen as the byproduct,” Fairbrother said.
