I am trying to find a way to reduce pet odors in my home. Has any one had any experience with pet odors and this machine?

The carbon filter should help with that. That was not our problem, ours was my allergy to cats. My daughter moved in with 3 cats. Now I rarely have to use sinus meds at nite. That's in a 2400 sq.ft. house, and the unit is on the second level, where the cats spend most of their time.

Yeah, I'm really odor sensitive and it does have a fairly strong one. However, unlike most appliances, it can take care of its own odor! Just stick it in a corner of your house that you don't go very often, turn it on, and turn the UV light on. In a day the odor is gone/bearable. I'm super sensitive to odors and this works fine for me.

I'd contact the manufacturer for information. I emailed them once when I was having problems getting rid of the smell of dog urine on a wooden post. They responded quickly and the advice worked.

We have used ours after our puppy throws up (believe me, it does not smell great) and it refreshes the carpet and the smell goes away. I think to remove the smell you want to be selective in which shampoo you use. We use the Bissell shampoo that came with the machine. I would all suggest to best get rid of the smell, you would need to do a deep cleaning, lots of spraying and then throughly sucking up the water. We also clean the disposal receptacle, the hose and the nozzle after using to get rid of any left over smell in the machine so it is clean when we use it on the next cleaning.

Hi April This would be the unit that help eliminate the worst of the urine smells ozone is a great oxidizer. There is some things to know to help you with this problem I have been in the carpet cleaning business for over 40 years. So if you have carpet you should have it cleaned first to remove most of the urine steam truck mount should be your best bet on powerful deep down urine removal. There also is a difference if it is a cat or dog. Cats have a stronger urine then a dog and that is from the kind of food cats eat. Now you should have the purifier in the room with the worst urine odor that will help the odor for migrating to other parts of the house. I also can give you more ideas of thing you can do so if you would like a more personal assessment of your problem just give me a toll free call . 800-868-5534 I do take call just about anytime even on Sundays thanks Lou hope I was of some help.

I did not use zero odor for mildew smell ands our laundry smell. If you're referring to smells in a carpet then maybe try the odor eliminator...but I have not used it.

This could help, but when I moved into a house where the former owner had used lots of candles, I used fresh ground coffee to help absorb the odors. It took a few months, but it did work in the end. I have used the Moso bags in a car where there was an air freshener and it was effective.

I do it a lot- I don't know but I've never ever had a problem. It will definitely take away all odors. I wouldn't be without one.

I don't know, but I do know that Zero Odor Pet works amazingly well on any odor -- even in carpets!

Some odors are harder to remove than others and stale [cigarette?] smoke is one of the hardest to eliminate but you're definitely on the right track! What really works to eliminate odors is the ozone emitting component of this air purifier and forget about charcoal and HEPA filtration. That said, this particular unit would probably do the job for you but it does not produce as much ozone as some of the other air purifiers which strictly rely on ozone to eliminate odors. I would go with one of the "ozone only" air purifiers; run it on high in UNOCCUPIED areas and moving it from room to room until the entire house has been treated. You might find you will need to re-treat some areas but depending on the length of time you run the purifier, it will eventually eliminate 100% of the odor - usually after one "treatment".

Patrick, Actually, I purchased the bare bones ozone generator. I haven't had the opportunity to use it to remove cigarette smoke but it did a fine job removing several other odors. The instruction sheet that came with the unit gives a basic guideline as to its use but some experimentation is required. I would suggest that you start slowly, maybe an hour, and check the results. Times will vary depending on the subject's size. Be sure to read the instructions regarding healthy use.

This comes with charcoal inserts that help eliminate pet odors. You have to replace the charcoal filters every so often so keep that in mind for operating costs. It handles a normal bedroom sized room.

I believe this is to be applied by spraying directly on the problem area. You might check with their website to see if they a product that can be used in a carpet cleaner. With this I would clean the carpet first and then apply this spray and let it dry. I think they have a solution for pet odors.

Linda I personally don't take our black Lab out when we run the Ozone. I only run it for about 15min. As far as any harm to our furniture no way. Maybe if you ran it for hours on end maybe? I ran it one time for couple hours with out our lab and had no problems. I hope this help. It really does make our home smell fresh . Rob

I've had trouble with one area in my house with cat urine from a previous tenant. This solution works pretty well. The smell will be gone for quite awhile and most of the time i don't notice it. I do typically go over it, for good measure, even when I cant smell it when I have to clean up one of the dogs messes and have solution left over. I think part of my problem is that the urine got on the tack strips which is why every once in awhile the smell will be noticeable.
