Ozone machines - Do they work?

[Mike-And-Jane0]

Hi Folks,

Our first experience of an horrific fish cooking smell from a guest pervading the whole apartment.

Does anyone have an Ozone machine, how long do they take to work and what capacity machine should I buy?

Thanks

I purchased an ozone machine after a tenant saturated the rental house with feces and urine soaked into the floor. After the house was cleaned and sanitized professionally,  the smell of urine still permeated the house. I turned on the ozone machine and left it on for 3 days in the vacant house. The smell diminished immensely. I was really surprised how well it worked. You have to make sure to removed all plants and animals before you turn on. Afterwards it advises to open windows for 30 minutes.
