Using an air purifier EdenPURE for fruiting.

I am using an expensive air purifier called EdenPURE to help reduce contaminants in the air by way of producing Ozone or O3 during the fruiting process. Does anyone know if there are any side effects that may deteriorate the mushrooms' growth in anyway or lessen the potency of them? Any input would help. I would also use this for the initial sterilizing and inoculating processes too.

Well, give me a break this is my first time. What about when I am sterilizing and inoculating?

You never need to use an air purified, but I believe that it does remove some contaminants from the air; so it cant hurt. However, I woudln't use it while inoculating because I believe that airflow is bad in that situation.

I'm no expert on this but I think your air cleaner only removes smell and not particulate matter. You want a HEPA because it can filter out really small stuff like spores. Once again, I have no experience with ozone generators, I do know that people that grow pot use them to remove the smell from the air. I have never heard of people that grow mushrooms using them to clean the air. It two completely different applications.
Good luck
