Odour Treatment cannot be booked as a standalone service.

Medusa Auto Detailing offers professional car odour and ozone treatment as an add-on to selected interior valeting packages, allowing us to clean the vehicle first before treating residual odours.

Important: Why Odour Treatment Is an Add-On

We Treat the Interior Before Treating the Smell

An ozone machine should not be treated as a substitute for cleaning the source of an odour.

If milk has soaked into a carpet, pet contamination remains within upholstery or another source is still present inside the vehicle, simply treating the air may not resolve the underlying problem.

Car interior cleaning before odour treatment

For this reason, our Odour & Ozone Treatment is available as an add-on to one of the following Medusa valeting packages:

Our Car Odour Treatment Process

How We Treat Unwanted Interior Smells

Our approach focuses on cleaning first and treating residual odours afterwards.

Professional ozone treatment for car interior
  1. Step 1

    Interior Inspection

    Our technician assesses the vehicle interior and, where possible, identifies the likely source of the odour.

    We may ask:

    • What caused the smell?
    • How long has it been present?
    • Has anything been spilled?
    • Has the vehicle previously been cleaned?
    • Is the smell stronger when the vehicle is warm?
    • Does the smell appear when the ventilation system is running?

    Identifying the source is important because some odours cannot be successfully addressed by ozone alone.

  2. Step 2

    Interior Valet

    Your selected: Triton Interior Valet, Zeus Full Valet or Medusa Gold Valet is carried out.

    The exact cleaning process depends on the package booked.

    Cleaning the interior first helps remove dirt, contamination and potential sources of unwanted smells before ozone treatment begins.

  3. Step 3

    Target the Source Where Accessible

    Where an obvious and accessible source of the odour is identified, it is treated as part of the applicable cleaning service where that treatment falls within the scope of the package booked.

    If specialist contamination cleaning or additional work is required, this may need to be quoted separately.

  4. Step 4

    Ozone Treatment

    Once the appropriate interior cleaning has been completed, the vehicle undergoes the selected ozone treatment.

    Treatment duration:

    • Mild — 15 minutes
    • Moderate — 30 minutes
    • Strong — 60 minutes

    The vehicle must remain completely unoccupied during ozone treatment.

  5. Step 5

    Air Circulation

    Where appropriate, the vehicle's ventilation system may be operated on recirculation during part of the treatment process to circulate treated air through the cabin.

  6. Step 6

    Ventilation

    Following treatment, the vehicle is ventilated before normal use.

    Our technician will advise the customer when the treatment has been completed and provide any relevant aftercare information.

Important: Odour Removal Is Not Guaranteed

Please Read Before Booking

Although our service combines professional interior cleaning with ozone treatment, Medusa Auto Detailing cannot guarantee complete or permanent removal of any smell or odour.

Some odours are caused by circumstances that cannot be fully resolved through valeting or ozone treatment.

The final result can depend on factors including:

  • The original source of the smell
  • How long the odour has been present
  • Severity of the contamination
  • Whether liquids have penetrated underneath carpets
  • Contamination inside seat foam
  • Contamination within carpet underlay
  • Odours trapped within the headliner
  • Contamination behind interior trim
  • Odours originating from air-conditioning or ventilation components
  • A contaminated cabin/pollen filter
  • Damp or water ingress
  • Mould in inaccessible areas
  • Previous smoking inside the vehicle
  • Previous cleaning products or treatments
  • Mechanical issues creating an odour
  • Contamination in areas that cannot be safely accessed during a valet

Our Commitment

Our technicians will make every reasonable effort to achieve the best possible result using the cleaning and treatment services booked.

However:

Complete odour removal cannot be guaranteed.

Payment is for the professional cleaning and treatment service carried out and is not conditional upon the smell being completely or permanently removed.

Why Can a Smell Return?

Sometimes the Source Is Deeper Than the Surface

A vehicle can look completely clean while an odour source remains hidden underneath or inside another component.

For example, liquid may have travelled:

  1. Through the carpet into the underlay
  2. Deep into seat foam
  3. Underneath fixed interior trim
  4. Into inaccessible cavities
  5. Into ventilation components

Similarly, long-term cigarette smoke can affect numerous interior materials rather than one single surface.

If the underlying source remains, an odour may reduce significantly following treatment and later become noticeable again.

This does not necessarily mean the ozone treatment or valet was carried out incorrectly.

It can indicate that the underlying source requires additional specialist work or replacement of an affected component.

Car AC

Cabin / Pollen Filter

Sometimes Your Cabin Filter Needs Replacing

The vehicle's cabin or pollen filter can sometimes retain unwanted smells.

If the filter is contaminated, treating the rest of the interior may not completely resolve the problem.

Where appropriate, we may recommend that the customer has the cabin/pollen filter replaced.

Important

Cabin/pollen filter replacement is not included within our standard Odour & Ozone Treatment.

Medusa cannot guarantee odour removal where a contaminated filter or another untreated vehicle component continues to produce the smell.

Specialist Contamination

Some Smells Require More Than an Odour Add-On

Certain problems require the physical source to be professionally cleaned rather than simply adding a longer ozone treatment.

  • Vomit / Sickness

    Book or enquire about our specialist Vomit Cleaning & Sanitisation service.

  • Mould

    Book or enquire about our Mould Removal & Sanitisation service.

  • Urine / Bodily Fluids

    Contact us with photographs and details so we can determine the appropriate service.

  • Major Spillages

    Milk, food, drink or other liquids that have heavily penetrated carpets or seats may require additional extraction or specialist cleaning.

Important

Ozone treatment is not a substitute for physically removing accessible contamination.
