FAQ

  • We’re parents first and former care professionals second, so creating safer spaces isn’t just business, it’s personal. We started Killswitch Solutions to deliver reliable, hospital-minded sanitizing for homes, daycares and businesses that can’t afford shortcuts.

  • Our system emits a dry fog (micron-sized particles) of aHP disinfectant that fills a room and uniformly covers all surfaces, including hard to reach areas, equipment and fabrics, without leaving residue or moisture. For most rooms, the total treatment time is less than 15 minutes and can be accessed again after 20-40 minutes.

  • No, it is designed for use between patients, during shift changes or when spaces are unoccupied.

  • Yes. The dry fog is non-corrosive, leaves no residue, and is safe around monitors, electronics and medical equipment, even paper.

  • Manual cleaning is vulnerable to human error and rarely reaches >90% coverage. UV systems are limited to line-of-sight and require multiple cycles to compensate for shadowed zones. In contrast, the aHP system uniformly fills the space, reaching difficult areas. Peer-reviewed studies show that aHP systems reduce the pathogens that cause infections such as C. difficile and SARS-CoV-2 by >99.99%.

  • HaloSpray is an EPA-registered bactericide, virucide, and fungicide (Reg. No. 84526-1) that has been tested in third-party laboratories adhering to the Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) regulations.

    •    Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA

    •    Pseudomonas, Salmonella, E. coli, Proteus mirabilis, Enterobacter aerogenes

    •    Sulfate Reducing Bacteria

    •    Norovirus, Rhinovirus, Feline Calicivirus, HIV, MVM

    •    H1N1, H5N1, Human Coronavirus

    •    Trichophyton mentagrophytes (ringworm), Aspergillus niger

  • Yes. HaloSpray™ is on the EPA’s List N for use against SARS-CoV-2. Peer-reviewed studies also show that aerosolized or vaporized hydrogen peroxide reliably inactivates SARS-CoV-2 on surfaces.

  • Aerosolized hydrogen peroxide (aHP) is a common method of disinfection within a healthcare environment. A 10-year hospital study showed that aerosolized hydrogen peroxide (aHP) systems reduced C. diff infection rates by more than 40%, with sustained additional improvements over time (AJIC 2022). Another study found that aHP “dry mist” reduced bacterial burden by more than 90% on noncritical medical equipment (AJIC 2020).

  • No. This treatment fog does not wet surfaces, damage electronics, nor interact with floor cleaners. When aerosolized the hydrogen peroxide rapidly breaks down into water and oxygen, leaving no residue or harmful byproducts. It is fragrance-free and acts as a true deodorizer by killing odor-causing bacteria.

  • Yes. It is:
    •    EPA registered (Reg. No. 84526-1)
    •    Practically non-toxic (CAT IV under 40 CFR 156.62)
    •     Biodegradable
    •    Free of VOCs, carcinogens, bleach, and phenols

  • Yes, when using our recommended fogging protocols, the airborne silver concentration does not exceed the limit of detection (2.5 µg/sample). Peak airborne silver concentrations are well below OSHA's Time Weighted Average (TWA) Permissible Exposure Limit of 10 µg/m3 for silver. Testing consisted of area air monitoring for elemental silver during the fogging cycle with silver sampling performed in accordance with a modified NIOSH 7030 Method.

  • Yes. We provide flexible evening and weekend services. We understand that daycares, offices and households can’t shut down during regular hours, so our team is available when your space is clear and interruption-free.

  • Yes. When something can’t wait, we do our best to provide same-day service based on availability. Call or message us and we will prioritize your request as quickly as possible.
