AirOzone 150 - Replacement Element - Restore Your Ozone Generator's Output
Best for: AirOzone 150 owners whose ozone plate has worn out and needs replacing rather than the whole unit.
Our thoughts
Ozone plates don't last forever - the corona discharge process that makes ozone gradually wears the plate down. This lets you replace just that part rather than binning a perfectly good AirOzone 150 housing. Reliable performance at a sensible price.
The AirOzone 150 is an inline ozone generator built into a 150mm diameter housing, designed to fit into standard 150mm (6") ducting to treat air as it's extracted from a grow room. It works using corona discharge: a high-voltage current runs across the internal plate, which ionises oxygen in the passing air stream and converts some of it into ozone, helping to break down odour compounds before they leave the extraction system.
This is the replacement element (part code AZ-150-ZONE) for that unit - effectively the wearing part of the generator. Over time, the discharge plate loses efficiency as it's used, and ozone output drops off even though the housing and fan are still working fine. Fitting a fresh element restores output without replacing the whole 150mm generator.
How it compares
A maintenance part rather than a standalone product, so it's best judged against the cost of the alternative.
- Considerably cheaper than replacing the entire AirOzone 150 unit once the plate wears down
- The AirOzone 150 itself is rated for up to 600m³/h air capacity and draws around 12W, making it one of the smaller inline units in GAS's AirOzone range - larger diameter models exist for bigger extraction setups
- Ozone-based odour control is a different approach to carbon filtration (Rhino, Phresh) - it treats the extracted air stream with ozone rather than adsorbing odour molecules onto activated carbon
A sensible, lower-cost way to keep an existing AirOzone 150 performing rather than replacing the whole unit.
Usage guidance
Fitting is straightforward but a few things affect how long the new element lasts.
Fitting
Isolate power to the unit before opening the housing, swap out the worn element for the replacement, and reassemble according to the housing's fitting points.
Monitoring output
A noticeable drop in odour control despite the extraction fan and ducting all working normally is usually the first sign the element needs replacing.
Ozone safety
Ozone generators should only treat air within a sealed ducting run, not be run in occupied spaces, since ozone at high concentrations can be harmful to people and pets.
Technical specifications

Who this is for
- Existing AirOzone 150 owners seeing reduced odour control performance
- Growers who'd rather replace a wearing part than the whole ozone generator
- Commercial or serious hobby setups running ozone treatment as part of their extraction line
Our take
A straightforward, sensibly priced way to keep an AirOzone 150 running at full output rather than paying for a whole new unit over one worn part.
Worth picking up as soon as you notice odour control isn't what it used to be.
