Ozone treatment & disinfection in Bangkhen, Bangkok

Reduces bacteria and odour in the cabin and air-con system, at no charge

Price
No charge
Time needed
About 30–45 minutes

A car sits in the Bangkok sun all day, and when you start the air-con a stale smell arrives before the cold air does. Almost none of that comes from the seats, it comes from the air-con system. Moisture trapped in the evaporator and the ducts is where mould and bacteria grow best, and it's exactly where a cloth and an air freshener cannot reach.

Ozone solves it differently. It is a gas, so it travels everywhere air travels, into the ducts, under the seats, into the gaps no hand fits, and it oxidises odour molecules and the cell walls of the microbes producing them. The smell goes because the cause is removed, not because it has been covered with fragrance.

We run the ozone generator with the air-con set to recirculate, so the ozone is pulled through the entire system rather than just sitting in the cabin. Afterwards we ventilate the car until the air is back to normal before handing it back, and you can drive away straight away.

What's included

  • Ozone through the cabin with the air-con running
  • Reduces the bacteria and mould behind the smell
  • Clears damp, smoke, food and pet odours
  • Fully ventilated before we hand it back

Questions we get asked

What is ozone treatment?
Ozone gas (O₃) is released into the cabin and the air-con system, where it oxidises odour molecules and micro-organisms. The smell is removed at source, unlike an air freshener, which only masks it.
How many minutes does ozone treatment take?
Typically 30–45 minutes including the ventilation afterwards, depending on the size of the car and how strong the smell is. You can wait in the lounge.
Is ozone treatment dangerous?
Nobody and no pet is inside during treatment, because concentrated ozone should not be breathed. Ozone breaks back down into oxygen on its own, and we ventilate the car fully before returning it, so it is normal to use when you collect it.
Do I actually need it, and how often?
Not with every wash. It's worth doing when a stale smell appears with the air-con, after water damage or heavy rain, after someone has smoked in the car, or before you sell it. Family cars carrying small children or pets tend to have it done once or twice a year.
Will the smell come back?
If the source is gone and no new moisture collects, it does not return on its own. But a water leak, carpet that stays wet, or a very old cabin filter will bring it back. If we see that, we'll tell you straight that the cause needs fixing first.
