1. An air ionization device, comprising:
(a) a housing including an air-intake port through which air can pass, an air discharge through which air can pass, and an inner cavity;
(b) an ion generator in the inner cavity; and
(c) an ozone removal catalyst in the inner cavity between the ion generator and the air discharge, the ozone removal catalyst being configured for removing at least some ozone from the air, wherein the ozone removal catalyst is part of an ozone removal assembly that at least partially surrounds the ion generator and comprises (a) an inner stainless steel mesh screen forming a first tube, (b) an outer stainless steel mesh screen forming a second tube; and (c) an ozone catalyst disposed between the first tube and the second tube.
