<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 255956, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> After the church fire in Brooklyn we rented six ozone machines. They came with NO instructions. We placed them on the third floor of the rectory in a large room, filled the room with 100+ yr old vestment and books. Some of the books were 300 years old. Turned on the machines and continued sorting stuff in the rest of the rectory. The next day most of us had sniffles and dry throats. Blamed it on the fire smells and smoke. The next day some of the people were dizzy and nauseated. Finally a call to the company that sent us the ozone machines reveled the truth, we were gassing ourselves. We immediately turned off the machines and ventilated the building. It was only dumb luck that we did not die. They then send the directions on running the machines. We learned the correct way in running the damn machines. When we were done, I bought one of the used machines and used it correctly, The best thing I used it on was a used car I bought. It smelled so bad from cigarette smoke. I enclosed the car in a unattached garage and ran the machine for 24 hours, After ventilating it for several days the car smelled like a new model. Please REMEMBER to use the MACHINE correctly.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
