Contact us for custom recommendations based on your specific project needs.
Cat Urine Quick Tips
Cat urine is among the toughest odors to eliminate but if you do it right you can kill it effectively. Use an enzyme cleaner first and then make sure the area is totally 100% dry. Do not let the ozone machine breathe cat urine air as it can have a negative impact on the internal components of the ozone machine. Place the machine in a manner that it can breathe the cleanest, driest air and face the machine so ozone is blowing towards the effected area. Apply the highest ozone concetrations possible by dividing the area into multiple smaller sections or use multiple ozone machines at the same time for professional ozone treatments.
Dead Rodent Quick Tips
It is always best if you can remove the decaying animal. But we understand that this is not always possible. Ideally you would remove the dead rodent and then perform a shock ozone treatment to eliminate all the remaining odors permanently. But if you cannot remove the dead animal, you can use our ozone machines on an on-going basis to at least control the odors until the natural decaying process has completed. Using the timer accessory, set the ozone machine to turn on/off at intervals throughout the day or night. In some cases, people cut holes into the drywall and funnel ozone into the wall via our pro hose accessory.
Dog Odor Quick Tips
Dog odors are very organic and more easily solvable than other animal odors. Cases include deodorizing the entry area where dogs enter the home, treating areas where urine has taken place, and disinfecting grooming salons & kennels in between periods where dogs are present. Follow our standard ozone treatment guidelines for "strong" odors. Download a copy of the Run Time Chart on the INFO page of our website.
Skunk Odor Quick Tips
Skunk spray odor is really stinky but very organic and thus solvable with our MaxBlaster ozone generators. We have a lot of experience working with people who've had their dogs get sprayed then bring the odor into the home. Follow our standard ozone treatment guidelines for "strong" odors.

Introduction
While traditional cleaning methods and air fresheners may provide temporary relief, they often fail to completely eradicate the persistent smells of cat urine, dog odors, and dead animals. Which is why MaxBlaster ozone generators have proven to be a popular solution to combat these difficult odors. In this article, we will explore the effectiveness of MaxBlaster ozone generators in eliminating pet odors and discuss their safe and efficient usage.
Understanding Ozone Generators
MaxBlaster ozone generators produce and distribute extremely high concentrations of ozone (O3) gas into the surrounding environment. Ozone is a powerful oxidant that effectively neutralizes odorous molecules by breaking them down at the molecular level. This process, known as oxidation, eliminates the source of the odor, rather than simply masking it.
Usage of Ozone Generators
While MaxBlaster ozone generators are effective at eliminating pet odors, it's important to use them safely and responsibly. Ozone is a powerful oxidant and can be harmful to humans and pets when not used correctly. Here are a few safety guidelines to follow:
Prepare the area: Try using an enzyme cleaner on cat urine before using the ozone machine. Then make sure the area is totally dry. Ensure that no humans or pets are present in the area.
Apply Shock Ozone: Saturate the area with an extremely high concentration of ozone gas. This is known as shock ozone treatment. Light ozone coverage will only mask the odors temporarily.
Ventilate after treatment: Once the ozone treatment is complete, allow the treated area to ventilate for 2 hours for every 1 hour that you ran the machine. Speed up the process by opening windows or using fans.
Run Time Guide: Follow the MaxBlaster Run Time Chart (included with purchase or download on the INFO page of our website) for best estimates.
Recommendations
For the average homeowner treating their own property, we recommend our PRO Edition machine as it is the best overall combination of strength and durability. Professional companies may want to consider using multiple machines to speed up the treatments and allow the ozone to spread more evenly across larger spaces. Our strongest machine, the PRO-G Edition, is better for those experienced with operating and maintaining high-performance equipment.
Summary
MaxBlaster ozone generators offer a proven solution for eliminating stubborn pet odors, such as those caused by cat urine, dog urine, skunk spray odors, and dead rodents. By attacking the odor molecules at their source, our ozone generators provide a deep-cleaning method that traditional cleaning methods often fail to achieve.

Professional Ozone Knowledge
Real customer questions and answers based on over 20 years of real-world ozone treatment experience.
Can ozone generators remove animal and pet odors from a home?
Yes. Ozone generators are often used to help eliminate strong animal odors that can develop in homes, apartments, kennels, and other indoor environments. Pet odors frequently become embedded in carpets, upholstery, flooring, and other porous materials where traditional cleaning methods may not fully reach. Because ozone is a gas, it can circulate throughout the room and penetrate into these materials where odor molecules tend to linger. When ozone concentrations become strong enough, the gas begins oxidizing the compounds responsible for the smell. This chemical reaction breaks the odor molecules apart rather than simply covering them up with fragrances. When used properly, ozone treatments can be a very effective way to restore freshness to areas affected by persistent animal odors.
Can ozone help remove pet urine odors?
Yes, but pet urine — especially cat urine — can be one of the most difficult odor problems to eliminate. Cat urine contains extremely strong compounds that can soak deep into carpet fibers, padding, subfloors, and other porous materials. For this reason, ozone treatments should always be preceded by proper cleaning. In many cases an enzyme-based cleaner is recommended because it helps break down the biological compounds that cause the odor. Once the affected area has been cleaned and allowed to dry completely, ozone can be used as a final step to help oxidize the remaining odor molecules trapped deeper in the materials. When used in combination with proper cleaning, ozone can be a powerful tool for dealing with even very stubborn urine odors.
Should animal odor areas be cleaned before using ozone?
Yes. Cleaning the affected areas first is always recommended. Urine, oils, and other organic contamination left behind by animals can continue producing odor if they are not removed. Washing, extracting, or treating the area with appropriate cleaners helps remove much of the material responsible for the smell. Once the surfaces are clean and fully dry, ozone can be used as a final deodorizing step to address the odor molecules that remain embedded deeper in the materials. Using ozone after proper cleaning typically produces far more reliable results than attempting to treat heavily contaminated surfaces without first addressing the source of the problem.
How long do ozone treatments for pet odors usually take?
Treatment time depends on the strength of the odor and the size of the space being treated. In many situations, rooms affected by pet odors may require several hours of ozone exposure in order for the gas to circulate throughout the area and reach the materials holding the odor. More severe contamination, such as long-term urine damage in carpets or subfloors, may require longer treatment cycles or repeated treatments. Because ozone slowly breaks back down into oxygen after the generator stops running, additional time is usually allowed for the gas to dissipate before people or pets re-enter the space. Over time, most users develop a sense for how long treatments should run based on the severity of the odor.
Can ozone remove skunk odor from a house?
Yes. Skunk odor is actually one of the situations where ozone treatments can produce very dramatic results. When a dog gets sprayed by a skunk and runs back into the house, the smell can spread quickly through carpets, furniture, and fabrics throughout the home. Many customers have reported that running an ozone treatment in the affected area can dramatically reduce or eliminate the odor much faster than traditional cleaning alone. Because the skunk odor compounds are highly reactive with ozone, they tend to break down quickly once sufficient ozone concentration is reached in the treatment space. While the pet itself still needs to be cleaned properly, ozone treatments can be extremely helpful for removing the odor that spreads throughout the home.
Is ozone safe to use around pets?
Ozone treatments should always be performed in unoccupied areas. People and animals should not remain in the treatment space while the ozone generator is operating. The concentrations used for odor removal are intended to treat the space itself rather than be breathed for extended periods of time. Once the treatment cycle is finished, the area should be ventilated so the ozone can dissipate before anyone returns to the space. Ozone naturally breaks down into oxygen over time, and airing out the room helps speed that process. Following these precautions helps ensure the treatment is performed safely while still allowing the ozone to reach effective levels for odor removal.
