I ended up getting another Honeywell cleaner - Honeywell 50100 Enviracaire Air Purifier and have been very satisfied with it.

I don't know the answer to your question. However, I have been using this purifier with great success for about 3 months. I don't use the ionizer though.

It shuts off when it reaches its desired temperature. It could possibly turn off if it starts to overheat. But, that has never happened to mine that I know of. Sorry, but I am not sure about the ionizer question. I am very happy with mine.

I bought this item a long time ago and i really don't remember about the ionization feature. I don't think I ever used it. I bought it for a humidifier and it was fine for that.

From what I remember I purchased this one because it did not, I had read on a website that ionizer for asthma is not good. However I will add that I returned this because it began to smell like 'fish'. the Honeywell people said it was due to water getting into the filter. Well I could not figure out what could have happened it was only a week or two so I returned it and decided not to bother with one. My daughter bought one from costco from Blueair that was significantly more money and not ionizer either and she really likes it with no problems.

I'm not familiar with any EPA statements concerning ozone (or activated oxygen as the SoClean company calls it.) If you would like to learn more it, there are several YouTube videos that give complete descriptions of how it works. In my experience, the result is excellent and I wouldn't be without it.

From my use so far, there is no access to the ionizer, so I have not needed to wipe anything clean. It is not like the ionizers that are sold solely to clean the air that need to be washed constantly after so many uses. I'm not sure how it works, I just turn it on and it works.

What is an ionizer? Read my previous reviews are google your question to include the name of the product.

This is from another website:Q: Does the AirTamer produce dangerous levels of ozone?A: No. AirTamer produces NO measurable amount of ozone.

I have two such units even though my condo is only 1088 SQ Ft. due to heavy dust pollution caused by a nearby highway. I get very good results by turning ionizer on midway and the fan on high 24/hours a day. An unexpected side benefit, the ozone kills large palmetto bugs. I also have two large air cleaners which in addition to the two ionizer machines gives a healthy breathing environment.

Yes it produces ozone but not in high concentration . otherwise we could have coped with global warming by using these fans . LOL You can google more and let me know too. I uses this feature rarely when i feel there is dust around to ionize it and settle it down.

The ionizer's in our units produce less ozone than the UL* established limits of 50ppb. However, in high concentrations, ozone can be harmful to birds and small pets. To prevent ozone buildup, we suggest using the ionizer in well ventilated areas with the fan on.

Hi Les, No it does not include an Ionizer, it purifies the air by way of using essential oils which have the properties of cleaning and purifying the air.

Mary? I've had my EDV4000 since April 27th, and it has run pretty much 24-7. When you first turn on the ionizer, yes, there is a little but it isn't horrible at all, and I've had mine on the ionizer all of the time it has been running. Also, this feature can be turned off. It's quiet, as well, even on the high speed setting it's quite tolerable. I hope this answer helps you and if you have anymore questions, feel free to write me at Raydeman@aol.com Thanks and have an awesome summer

my ionizer is the best thing i have bought for my pool....it does not let you understand how or why it works but the main thing is it does....no other chem. needed..maybe a little shock after a rain.

Regarding the "ozone" concern.....the company states the following:"No ozoneA specially designed UV-C light bulb is used so no ozone is produced. The UV-C light bulb (model LB1000) needs to be replaced every six to eight months depending on use."I personally had one and loved it. Ran smoothly!

I am a customer. I am also a scientist. For UV lamps to produce ozone, the bulb must produce a very specific wavelength of light. UV used to kill microbes and the like is UVC which does not produce ozone. Mere presence of high voltage als does not mean that you produce ozone. Do a search on ozone generators!
