Rosco V-Hazer — Silent Water-Based Haze Machine
Rosco haze machine · the flagship hazer
Rosco V-Hazer — silent, even, water-based haze
When you need a fine, consistent atmosphere — to reveal light beams, or to hold an even suspension for measurement — with no machine noise and no oily residue, the V-Hazer is the specified choice. Innovative internal baffles maximise airflow for a haze that spreads smoothly through the whole space.
Standout feature
The cleaner, more compact way to haze
The V-Hazer runs a water-based haze fluid, so it leaves no oily, damaging residue on performers, sets, lenses or gear — the residue common to oil- and glycerin-based hazers simply isn't there. And it does it from a compact, easy-to-place body that fits studios, stages and rigs where larger industry hazers won't.
Water-based fluid
Runs Rosco's water-based V-Hazer Fluid, modelled on the Academy Award®-winning formulation — no petroleum, no oily film.
A cleaner atmosphere
No oily or damaging residue left on people, sets, optics or equipment — safe to run around performers, crew and repeat sessions.
Compact footprint
Just 614 × 293 × 290 mm and 14.5 kg — a small, easy-to-place body that goes where larger touring hazers can't.

What it is
A superior haze — and near silence
Internal baffles maximise airflow to generate greater output and thorough dispersion, so the haze spreads consistently and smoothly. The blower switches off when idle for the quietest possible performing space (under 35 dB). Fan and pump speed sync to the remote, and independent DMX control of fan and pump lets you dial in the perfect balance of fast haze and even distribution from the desk.
- Continuous haze at just 0.9 L/hr
- Very quiet — under 35 dB; blower off when idle
- Water-based haze — no oily, damaging residue
- Internal baffles for even, thorough dispersion
- Independent DMX control of fan speed & pump volume
- Shares the Vapour remote & Multi-Link
- Engineered specifically to aerosolise Rosco V-Hazer Fluid
Where it fits
For clean, even atmosphere you can trust
The even, residue-free haze suits broadcast and theatre where quiet and cleanliness matter, and any technical setting that needs a fine, consistent suspension — from revealing airflow to holding an even atmosphere for observation. It runs only genuine V-Hazer fluid, by design.

Step 3 · Match the fluid
The V-Hazer runs one fluid — by design
The V-Hazer's operating temperature, pump pressure and nozzle are engineered specifically to aerosolise Rosco V-Hazer Fluid — a water-based haze fluid with maximum hang time and optimal particle size, and no oily residue. Using anything else risks the machine and voids the warranty.
