Why You Should be Fogging with SanOT500 Hypochlorous Solutions
Fogging, as the term suggests, uses disinfectant sprayed from a Fogging machine to create what looks like fog in the room. It is an effective way to disinfect high levels of horizontal surfaces, hard to reach areas that are often missed or forgotten and small, and confined spaces such as extractor units. Fogging saturates an entire room with fine sanitizing particles. Some of the most common fogging methods include:
- Chemical fogging
- Vaporized hydrogen peroxide
- Ionization
Fogging provides a range of benefits, including:
✓ Fogging is seen as being safe and effective if carried out correctly
✓ Effective at reducing air-bourne contaminants
✓ Effective at disinfecting hard to reach areas
✓ Highly effective at disinfecting horizontal surfaces
On the other side, however, fogging with standard chemical-based sanitisers has it’s cons:
✘ Hazardous to breathe – most types of fogging render the air unbreathable during treatment
✘ Complicated requirements – many methods have atmospheric requirements such as specific temperature and humidity. Others involve unstable compounds that are difficult to store and transport
✘ Runoff – Traditional sprayers produce a large amount of liquid runoff, which can spread pollutants, contaminants and hazardous chemicals in the fogging solution
✘ Many disinfectants such as alcohols are flammable and hazardous which makes them dangerous to fog
Excessive use of harsh, chemical-filled sanitisers while fogging can be highly toxic to Health and normal immune function. Inhaling and possibly ingesting particles from the fumes from sanitisers can increase your risk of serious illness and even certain cancers.
