Origins in Medical Sterilization
The concept of “fogging” for disinfection (i.e. aerosolizing disinfectants) traces back to the 19th century. Use in operating rooms, surgical suites.
Early machines were large, industrial units—about the size of refrigerators—and very costly, making them impractical for residential use.
The technology uses an ultra-fine particles (smaller than the size of mold spores) to disinfect surfaces and the air without leaving moisture behind.

As the technology evolved, engineers developed smaller, portable, and more affordable machines.
Researchers discovered that dry fog was not just effective for sterilization—it was also 99.9% effective in destroying MOLD, bacteria, allergens, myco-toxins and viruses in indoor environments.
Unlike traditional remediation (which often requires tearing out walls, carpets, or ceilings), dry fogging proved 99.9% effective without demolition, saving homeowners significant costs and time.
