Skunkbuster

Skunkbuster(s) Ozone Odour Control

Skunkbuster's approach to odour is active oxidation rather than passive carbon absorption. The O3 Ozone Generator comes in 12W, 18W and 36W outputs for neutralising odour through the air directly, and the replacement ozone lamp keeps an existing unit running once the bulb's output starts to drop, which happens gradually well before total failure.

Ozone generators work differently to a carbon filter, they treat the air in a space rather than filtering air as it's actively exhausted through ducting, which makes them better suited to managing residual odour in a room than to scrubbing the main exhaust stream of a sealed tent. Many growers run both, a carbon filter on exhaust air and an ozone generator for the room itself, rather than treating them as interchangeable solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a Skunkbuster ozone generator instead of a carbon filter?
They solve slightly different problems. A carbon filter treats exhaust air leaving your tent, an ozone generator treats ambient air in the room. Many growers run both rather than choosing one over the other.

How do I know when to replace my ozone lamp?
Output degrades gradually before the lamp fails outright, so if odour control seems less effective than it used to be despite no other changes, the lamp is a likely cause worth checking.
