Get Cleaner, Fresher Water with Ozone Treatment - Tampa Bay
Ozone is one of the most effective methods for water treatment and disinfection. As a powerful oxidizing agent, ozone destroys bacteria, viruses, and other contaminants in your building's water supply.

The Power of Ozone for Water Purification
Ozone, comprised of three oxygen atoms (O3), is an unstable and highly reactive molecule. This makes it a uniquely powerful oxidizing agent for water treatment applications. When ozone comes into contact with substances like bacteria, viruses, and unwanted organic compounds, it immediately begins to oxidize them through a series of chemical reactions.
Oxidation Breaks Down Contaminants
During oxidation, ozone donates its third oxygen atom to oxidize other molecules. This destroys cell membranes and breaks down contaminants into simpler, safer byproducts like oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water. There are very few compounds that can resist degradation by ozone oxidation. This allows ozone to eliminate a wide variety of water pollutants extremely effectively.
Superior to Chlorine Disinfection
In particular, ozone is the strongest commercially available disinfectant. Ozone eliminates 99.99% of waterborne pathogens, outperforming chlorine and superior to UV light. The EPA has approved ozone as producing a safe drinking water supply with significant microbial reduction. Just a small dose of ozone can inactivate tough pathogens like Cryptosporidium in minutes.
No Harmful Byproducts
Unlike other chemical disinfectants like chlorine, ozone treatment does not produce any additional harmful byproducts like trihalomethanes (THMs). In fact, ozone eventually decomposes into plain oxygen, resulting in no residual chemicals being left behind in treated water.
Benefits of Ozone Water Treatment Systems
Powerful Oxidation
Ozone readily reacts with organic and inorganic contaminants, breaking them down through oxidation. This allows ozone to eliminate odors, remove pesticides/chemicals, and destroy disease-causing microorganisms.
Superior Disinfection
Ozone eliminates 99.99% of bacteria, viruses, parasites, and other pathogens more effectively than chlorine. This reduces the risk of waterborne illness.
Taste and Odor Control
By oxidizing taste and odor compounds, ozone significantly improves the taste and smell of water.
Chemical-Free Solution
Ozone water treatment provides all the oxidation and disinfection needed without adding any chemical residuals, byproducts, or new compounds to the water.
Rapid Disinfection
Ozone acts rapidly, with short contact times required to achieve desired disinfection levels. Treatment easily fits within standard residence times in tanks/pipes.
Enhanced Filtration Performance
Ozone breakdown of organics allows particles to coagulate and filter better. The resulting improvement in filtration saves on backwashing and media replacement costs.
Safe for Consumption
When applied properly, ozone effectively treats water without leaving behind any taste or odor in drinking water. Ozone maintains safety standards for domestic water supplies.
Ozone Systems Suitable for Commercial Facilities
There are several types of ozone treatment systems that can benefit commercial sites like office buildings, hotels, hospitals, schools, and industrial facilities.
Ozone Point-of-Entry Filtration System
A point of entry (POE) ozone system treats all water flowing into a building’s plumbing system. An ozone generator injects ozone into the main water line coming from the well or municipal water hookup:
Ozone rapidly treats the water before it reaches taps, appliances, etc inside the building. POE treatment provides whole-building protection from contaminants with minimal space requirements.
POE System Benefits:
-
Oxidizes and disinfects all incoming water
-
Prevents bacterial growth in filters/pipes
-
Removes bad taste/odor compounds
-
Enhances standard filtration media
-
Single treatment system for whole building
Tank Oxidizing and Sanitizing System
Ozone bubble diffusion systems are designed for storage tanks and holding vessels. An ozone generator produces a concentrated ozone gas that feeds into a contactor below the tank water level:
As ozone bubbles rise through the water, they dissolve and disperse, contacting the entire volume in the tank. This prevents microbial growth and biofilm formation during storage.
Tank Ozone System Benefits:
-
Maintains clean water in storage tanks
-
Oxidizes dissolved metals like iron and manganese
-
Controls biological growth and biofouling
-
Easy retrofit for existing tank-based systems
