bilisguru's Full Review: Ecoquest Living Air Classic Air Purifier
Let us attempt to put some common sense plausibility into this thread started here.
His opinion, Ozone kills.
It's bad for you and if you continue to place yourself in it's harmful path, you'll die.
Non the fact that millions of these out dated EcoQuest XL-15 air purifiers are in existence and used daily in millions of US homes with no problems attributed to them save a few instances where manufacturers directions were not followed to the letter.
They simply do what they are advertised to do.
I have one, for my wife's asthma, to clean up the air of asthma triggers in our home. It works and we wouldn't be without it. That is a fact, plain and simple.
We bought this product because we found that it did exactly as it was advertised to do. We love the fact that you never replace an expensive filter using it. Simply a once a month cleaning is all that is required to maintain air flow and it's virtually silent in operation.
There is nothing we've found to hate about this product.
It works for us, that is our opinion. We use this device as instructed in the factory users manual and have had absolutely "0" problems since we bought it in 1997.
That is 10 years of trouble free use. Period.
That is a simple fact, not an opinion.
If you look for similar instances of this same fact, you will find literally millions of them.
That is a fact, not an opinion.
If we, as users of computers who are computer literate attested by the fact that we are reading this thread, search in say the MOST popular search engine on this planet (Google) for "Ozone Deaths"; we will find:

OZONE DEATH STUDY
Have you ever wondered exactly what the significance of ozone alert days are?
Yale University researchers have uncovered a startling fact i.e. that more people will die on ozone alert days because of "pollutants" (emphasis quote marks mine).
You will also find in this same "Yale University" study that:
The fact is theres actually good ozone and bad ozone. Ozone alerts naturally aim to warn against detrimental ozone. The good ozone is the ozone thats way up in the atmosphere that protects us against the harmful rays of the sun. The bad ozone is down here, near the ground.
Hummmmm, good ozone and bad ozone.
Now then, I wonder just which ozone this dreaded XL-15 machine produces?
Would it be the one that is the good ozone that smells like a thunderstorm, as advertised, or the one that smells like quote:"predominantly the result of vehicle emissions. The ozone comes from hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides in the emissions. The more vehicles there are on the road and the more miles traveled directly correlates to the levels of ozone in the environment".
I think we can all attribute an opinion to this statement in the fact that good ozone doesn't smell like a motor vehicles exhaust pipe.
So, we have a "Yale University" study that doesn't name one instance of a direct good "Ozone" caused death in the USA anywhere at anytime.
I find this plausible, don't you?
Good ozone, the one produced by electricity as an electrical thunderstorm produces, protects us:
Quote:
"The good ozone is the ozone thats way up in the atmosphere that protects us against the harmful rays of the sun. The bad ozone is down here, near the ground. And the latest study shows ground level ozone is associated with an increased short term death rate."
Let's see, The bad ozone is down here, near the ground. Produced by vehicle emissions.
So says the "Yale University" study.
That's strange, not one mention of the dreaded EcoQuest XL-15 producing this "bad" ozone.
How could it? Since it in fact smells like natures own thunderstorm and is produced by high voltage electricity! Not vehicle emissions!
So, therefore, I believe we have it all explained by "Yale University" so that the average laymen/women can understand this very complicated issue.
Along this same avenue, we find upon further study on "Ozone Deaths" searched that not one instance is there a death directly attributed to good ozone in the history of Google or mankind for that matter.
How could there be?
It is God given and has been on this planet since time itself began.
With that, I will end my "opinion" of this thread.
