Winix rates it ozone-free, and PlasmaWave can be turned off if you prefer not to use the ionizer.

How loud is the Winix 5500-2?

It runs from 27 dB on low to 51 dB on high. Low is quiet enough for a bedroom; high is noticeable but not harsh.

Yes, it supports both, and a remote is included. There is no app, so scheduling and control happen through voice or the buttons.
