Consumables keep an effects rig running, and this section covers ADJ’s fluid range: Fog Juice 1 Light, 2 Medium and 3 Heavy in packs of four 5 litre bottles, ready-mixed Bubble Juice, 250 mL machine cleaning fluid and 20 mL scent additives in coconut, lemon, mint, strawberry and tutti-frutti.

Fluid grade is the practical decision. Light fluid disperses quickly and suits short bursts and rooms where lingering smoke would be a problem, medium is the general-purpose choice for most foggers, and heavy hangs in the air for dense, slow-clearing looks. Scent additives dose into the fluid to take the edge off the machine smell at close quarters, which earns its keep at weddings and hospitality events. Run cleaning fluid through the pump and heater periodically per the machine manufacturer’s guidance, especially before a machine goes into storage, as dried residue over winter is the most common reason a fogger fails in spring. Above all, stick to fluid types your machine’s manufacturer approves, because the wrong fluid can clog a heat exchanger and void a warranty.

The machines these feed live in the Smoke Machines, Haze Machines and Bubble Machines categories, and trade quantities are straightforward on an account.
