ABOUT LE MAITRE SMOKE FLUIDS

Le Maitre smoke fluids are specifically designed to create different effects for different applications.
Nearly all smoke fluids are based on glycols and it is up to the user to choose what kind of effect they require. Different smoke effects are created by the blend of glycols and water used. All glycols produce a small residue (ash content), which is the substance that is deposited in the heat exchanger, ultimately causing blockage. Some glycols produce more residue than others and we have tried to give some guidance here.

Most smoke fluids are interchangeable provided they come from a reputable source. However it should be remembered that the cheapest glycols often contain the highest ash content and reputable manufacturers should be using pharmaceutical grade glycol as opposed to the industrial grade. Other problems between machines can occur with the viscosity of the fluid. This is especially evident where a manufacturer has used excess water in order to keep costs down.

Le Maitre smoke fluids are non-toxic, non-irritating and safe. Click here to see the list.
