zone as is made by Nature, and by Man. Nature uses ozone gas to protect Earth's surface from UV-B radiation (which damages DNA). Nature also uses ozone to moderate day / night temperature swings, and to couple nitrogen and oxygen temperatures to radiate away some of their heat (they cannot radiate in infrared, but ozone can). Nature makes ozone to fight infection / predation in organisms. Finally, Nature makes ozone with lightning and waterfalls, which helps purify the air. Man makes ozone for water treatment, chemical processes, medical and dental treatments, for purification of confined spaces (both air and food-prep / surgical surfaces), and directly and indirectly from exhaust products. Ozone made at Earth's surface does not survive to "reinforce the ozone layer".

What effect do air conditioning gases have on the ozone layer?

The gas that used to be used in air conditioners and refrigerators, freon, or chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) would damage the ozone layer. Chlorine would separate from the gas and attack the ozone molecules. These gases are no longer used in air conditioning units. If no further damage occurs the ozone layer will have repaired itself by 2060.
