As reported in Purcell, Oklahoma on Dec.14, a skunk tried to steal Christmas from the children.  After getting into a storage shed, the skunk sprayed more than $16,000 worth of toys which might mean no Christmas presents for more than 800 underprivileged children.  Is there any hope for saving the Christmas presents? With efforts to rid the presents of this horrible smell, workers attempted to spray them with Febreze with no success.

“When I walked in the fire department, some guys came in and said ‘You better come and look at this.’ And I walked out the door and we were knocked down with the smell of skunk,” said Peggy Christian, an Operation Christmas volunteer. “We found a few pieces that we’ve been able to salvage, but a lot of it we don’t think we have a chance for.”

Then the real contender steps forward.  Currently Ozone is being used to treat these Christmas presents and at the end of the day will find that the smell is completely gone. This Christmas will still be a Christmas with plenty of presents and there will still be 800 smiling faces in the city of Purcell, Oklahoma.

Ozone Solves Odor Problem

Recently we implemented ozone in a spice warehouse to solve a major odor issue. Read about this installation here. This customer even provided a great testimonial after our successful installation.

This customer stores and packages various spices in a large warehouse that is near houses, a school, even a busy roadway.  This was leading to lower quality of life, and lower property values in the neighboring community.

Warehouse Location

After successfully installing the ozone system within the air space inside the warehouse odors were reduced inside of the building, leaving almost no odor escaping outside. This drastic reduction in odor was a huge success.  Not only is the odor in the community lower, the employees have a better place to work.

Results

  • After the ozone system was implemented the odor directly next to the building was almost completely eliminated.
  • The county health department praised the spice warehouse for the amazing difference in odor emissions.
  • Due to the improved air quality inside the warehouse, the vent fans could be slowed down to recirculate less air.
  • Air quality inside the warehouse improved creating a better work environment for the employees.
  • Fines and odor complaints were completely eliminated after installation of the ozone system.
