SMOKE
AND MILDEW CONTROL
One
of the biggest concerns after a home fire is getting rid of the odor of a fire.
Unfortunately, this is also among the most difficult activities. Records which
survived the 1906 San Francisco fire and are today in the National Archives still
smell strongly of smoke — over 90 years latter. Besides
the use of chemicals to mask the smell, there are two general approaches used
commercially. One is called Thermal Deodorization and the other is Ozone Treatment.
Ozone is a viable choice with pianos, but frying them is NOT. Heat treating a
piano will cause the frame to over dry and come apart. Remember,
too, that the source of the odor can be very complex. For example, with furniture,
the smell may be literally on the surface in the soot; or it may in impregnated
into the finish, especially if the finish was softened by the fire. A softened
finish should be replaced completely. Ozone
provides effective purification of air and water from bacteria's, viruses and
other microorganisms, and ozone eliminates odors without producing any hazardous
byproducts. Its natures own purifying process. It is the odor cancelling quality
of ozone that we are dealing with. Ozone also kills mildew. For this reason, pianos
which have been affected by smoke can be deodorized by ozone treatment, and pianos
which took on mildew by being stored or used in damp areas can have the mildew
virtually killed off completely. Please
read our page on ozone, mildew, and moth treatment carefully. See
our page of Humidity Meters and Mold Control and Prevention

harvested in Africa from the pyrethrum daisy (Chrysanthemum cineraiifolium).
Because this natural ingredient is so powerful, X-580 protects pets and family
against harmful insects like fleas, ticks, lice, bedbugs, mosquitoes, mites,
roaches, wasps, centipedes and other critters. X-580 even kills flying and
nuisance insects.
X-580

is limited to hard, non-porous surfaces (like floors and countertops), X-580
is approved for use on exposed surfaces like bedding, mattresses, upholstered
furniture, drapes and carpet. RECOMMENDED
AND TRUSTED Cleaning and restoration experts have used and relied upon this
brand for over 30 years. Industrial hygienists and environmental consultants
trust this chemical and specify it when they guide and advise professionals
handling microbial remediation, odor removal and pest control protocols. In
many ways, water-based X-580 is a miracle of science; it is the first combination
of disinfectant, fungicide, antimicrobial, mildewcide, bacteriostat, fungistat,
insecticide and deodorant ever produced. That is a distinction that cannot
be dismissed when you wage war on pests. PRICE:

ODOR EDADICATION WITH OZONE The
Air-Zone® XT-120 & AirZone® XT-240 is designed for household rooms,
& mild odor removing ozone shock treatments of small areas.
The Air-Zone®
XT-120 & AirZone® XT-240 feature a brand new 21st century method of producing
ozone. The permanently mounted ozone elements inside the unit produce pure
ozone with no measurable nitrogen oxides that can make some air purifiers
dangerous and offensive.
These units also puts out a sensible amount of negative ions that help scrub the
air clean, and cause many floating particles of dust to simply fall to the floor.
They are
designed for continuous or timed air cleaning & odor control in bedrooms,
offices, and similar areas. They both have fully variable ozone control, and
a built in "Burst" timer that makes it perfect for use in occupied areas.
The XT-120
and the XT-240 are perfect for dorm room air purification.
Not as versatile as the XT-400 or XT-800, they are economical alternative in smaller
situations.
They can effectively eliminate cigarette smoke and many other types of odors in
your home. The XT-120 / 240 series now include a free "Burst Timer". This sophisticated
electronic timer makes the unit extremely versatile for room air purification.
The user can set the timer to have the unit give "bursts" of ozone for either
10, 20, 30, 40, 50, seconds per minute. This allows there to be very short
bursts of ozone instead of a continuous blast. That means these units can be
used in the smallest of rooms without becoming overpowering. No other air purifier
has this type of useful timer built right in! Perfect for a bedroom or office.
These are
very powerful units. The ozone output levels barely have to be raised above
their lowest settings to clean the air in room sizes mentioned. They
are also strong enough to give light ozone shock treatments to small areas, like
the inside of a piano, to remove strong odors.
Small but extremely powerful, these units have the highest ozone output for any
ozone generators available for the price anywhere! These units blow the doors
off of units cost 2 & 3 times the price. They have to be tried to be believed.
These units actually attack and kill the source of the offending odors in
a way that ionizers cannot. CAVEAT
EMPTOR: You must be willing to take full responsibility for the use of the
ozone generators we sell. We cannot predict how you will use them, and we
cannot predict how you or other people in and around your home will react
to ozone. READ

Nitrogen Oxides !! Durable
strong Ozone Generating Elements Easy
Cleaning of the Elements
Old
style ozone "plates" may create large amounts of Nitrogen Oxides which are offensive,
irritating, and dangerous. Air-Zone's patented ozone elements are in a permanently
molded housing, that require NO adjustment whatsoever. They also don't produce
dangerous Nitrogen Oxides. Air-Zone®
uses 24 carat gold plating in our United States Patented ozone elements to help
prevent corrosion. We also use high temperature, shatter resistant, tempered glass
in our innovative ozone elements. Old style ozone "plates" consist of flimsy,
easily corroded, steel screens and delicate, thin pieces of glass or mica, less
than a millimeter thick. They must ALWAYS be kept perfect alignment or there is
a chance that screens will touch and the transformer will short out and become
a fire hazard. We do not use MICA ozone plates in our ozone generators. MICA is
the cheapest and worst material to use in an ozone plate. MICA easily breaks,
flakes apart, burns, and shorts out the generator. Stay far away from any ozone
generator using a MICA ozone plate. If
not cleaned and aligned constantly, old style ozone "plates" will produce less
ozone, and possibly even spark out dangerous high voltage electricity. Air-Zone's®
patented ozone elements solve all these problems. Old style ozone "plates", first
designed in the 1800's, must be removed, scrubbed clean, dried, and be meticulously
reassembled, or they will
not work correctly. Even with all that work, their life span is notoriously short.
Air-Zone's®
low cost, patented ozone elements can be quickly cleaned with the special included
element cleaning tool we include with every ozone generator. They can be replaced
in minutes with a screwdriver. Old style mica ozone "plates" consist of 4 separate
parts. Each of the 40 pieces in a competitors 10,000 mg/hr ozone generator must
be meticulously installed and aligned for the ozone machine to work properly.
Our corona discharge elements are many more times powerful than UV Ultraviolet
bulbs. Read

MOUSE
TRAPS
Nobody
likes to admit that mice have invaded their home. A mouse takes up residence,
collects food from the pantry and dogs food dish, and may even be well on the
way to raise a happy little family of more mice before you see the tell tale evidence
of the mouse. Mice
LOVE upright pianos. They especially like to make house under the keys. There
are three sections under there, living room, pantry, and restroom. Many times
I have opened up an upright piano that had something restricting the keys from
dropping all the way, only to find a mouse apartment in full progress. Our
MouseMaster traps will catch the mouse when it first enters the piano down in
the bottom area. It smells of natural real peanut butter, but the trap has a thick
layer of extremely sticky substance that catches the mouse and holds it securely
once it steps inside the box. Just fold the box up by the instructions, remove
the protective layer, and put the trap in the bottom of the piano. You will need
to remove the bottom "kick board" by lifting or turning the lever that secures
it at the top in order to open the bottom area. Part
