Ozone Service in Seattle, WA

This service uses ozone gas, also called O3, to destroy the odor-causing germs in your car. One of our technicians will place an ozone generator in your vehicle. The generator will create ozone gas that fills your car and eradicates viruses and bacteria. Stubborn odors will be neutralized once the gas has remained in your car for the designated amount of time.

How long the service takes will depend on how potent the odor is and how long it has been in your vehicle. Scents that have permeated your car's interior for extended periods will take longer to remove than scents that have not had as much time to seep into the fabric and crevices of your vehicle.

Ozone treatments use oxidation, a chemical reaction, to break down the bacteria causing the odor. Since O3 is an unstable molecule, it dismantles any other molecules it encounters, including the molecules that make up bacteria. As a result, ozone is a powerful sterilization method that is well-suited for seeping into spaces too small to be cleaned by traditional methods.

Ozone's ability to break down other molecules through oxidation is why it is one of the only effective treatments for removing the smell of smoke from vehicles. Smoke is nearly impossible to remove using other methods, as it contains chemicals that must be destroyed on a molecular level to eliminate the odor for good.

If you've recently opened your car door and grimaced at the scent that accosted your nose, this service is for you. While you may feel embarrassed about your car's odor, there's no need. Most car owners will struggle with a lingering smell at least once, and those who have children, pets, or smoke in the car will likely encounter scents that stick around more frequently. To get the most out of this service, you'll want to eliminate any physical source of the smell that you can.

For example, if your child spills a milkshake on the backseat, you'll want to clean up the spill. You'll find that even after you've mopped up the milkshake, the smell will remain from the bacteria on the seat. The ozone service will remove the odor by neutralizing the bacteria, and your car will smell fresh. However, if you receive treatment without removing the source of the problem, the fix would only work temporarily because the residue would grow more bacteria.

There's no reason to endure an unwanted odor each time you drive your vehicle. Instead, treat yourself to a car that smells as fantastic as it looks by adding an ozone service to your detailing package.
