If you smell it you are not using it correctly. All air and water must pass through carbon, if you do that along with using the proper amount you will smell nothing.

I use it occasionally because it makes my water unbelievably clear. I used it on a regular basis at first but found no other benefits so I cut back to a couple times a week.

I have a 100mg/h unit I run at 25-50% on an ORP controller set to 350. Ozone gets injected into the skimmer. No smell.

Im using 200Mg/H Ozotech Poseidon with MTC Pro Ozone reactor, MTC Subtrates reactor (carbon for the effluent) and Carbon air filter. I have my run full blast 24/7 with my ORP set at 350mV. I don't smell anything. My water is crystal clear....

GSMguy, you can get a 50mg/h or 25mg/h Sanders Ozone generator and the redsea Air dryer 500g for a little over $200. Don't get the redsea Ozone generator. I heard it is not all that great
