How do you keep the ozone concentration high enough to
kill the mold, but low enough to keep from attacking
electronics, insulation in your house wiring, carpets,
furniture, etc. In addition to ozone, a Tesla coil
also puts out copious amounts of NOx, which is bad. I
forget my chemistry, but it may create nitric acid.
