What is the best way to prepare the Fizzion solution?

  • Add one Fizzion tablet to every 16 oz. of warm tap water 
  • Scrape off loose matter  
  • Spray on the stain or dirt surface until wet 
  • Blot gently with a clean towel 
  • Watch as the stain begins to disappear

    How long does Fizzion last once it's activated?

    The Fizzion solution maintains maximum potency for up to one year after activation.

    What is the difference between Fizzion and Nature's Miracle or Simple Solution?

    Nature’s Miracle is an enzymatic solution that can take up to several hours just to activate.  Enzymatic cleaners use a bioprocess to help remove the odor, but because enzymes are so sensitive, strong detergents needed to eliminate the  stain cannot be incorporated because they will deactivate the enzymes so the mess is left half treated. 
    Simple Solution is an enzymatic solution as well but it also introduces what they call a “good bacteria” into your home that are supposed to speed up the process of breaking down the odor.  The problem is the “good bacteria” are not selective in where they choose to inhabit (meaning that they will not necessarily remain on the stain you put them on).  If not careful, this can cause bacterial colonies in areas that are conducive to their growth around the persons home causing them to begin feeding on other chemicals and creating additional odors around the home.  Finally, because Simple Solution is also enzymatic, the process still can take several minutes or hours to activate and still only half treats the mess.
    Fizzion does not use enzymes at all. There is no waiting time whatsoever and the impact Fizzion makes on the stain and odor is instant and permanent.  Fizzion achieves this in three ways: 1. The use of a proprietary blend of cleaners to create an unmatched detergency that removes the two most stubborn components of urine from the material or fabric.   2.  It forms a shield around the stain while it works on it which immediately reduces odors.   3. To prevent the odor from returning, Fizzion's powerful CO2 action makes the normally insoluble uric acid in urine soluble, so that it can be removed from the surface never to return.

    Will Fizzion work on a carpet that has been shampooed or chemically treated in the past ?

    Yes.  Fizzion does not contain enzymes so its performance will not be compromised by any residues or cleaners used in previous treatments.  If there is any residue on the surface from previous cleaners, it is best to wipe that away with warm water first, before applying Fizzion.  Additionally, Fizzion’s performance, unlike enzymatic cleaners, is not heat sensitive therefore it can be used right before you steam clean without issue. 

    Can Fizzion prevent pets from returning to the same place to relieve themselves?

    Yes.  Pets are attracted to the ammonia smell that comes from the uric acid in urine.  When there are traces of this scent left behind, the pet is more likely to return to that spot to relieve itself.  Fizzion completely eliminates the uric acid so your pet will be less likely to return to the spot that has been treated.

    Is Fizzion safe for pets to sniff and lick?

    All of the ingredients in Fizzion are completely non toxic and will not harm your pet if they come in to contact with Fizzon before or after the solution is dry.

    Is there any waiting period once you treat the stain with Fizzion?

    You do not have to wait for the Fizzion solution to activate once you spray it on the stain.

    Can you use Fizzion on regular household stains such as red wine and chocolate?

    Yes. The reason that Fizzion is so effective on pet stains and odor is because they are protein-based. Many household stains like red wine and chocolate are also protein-based.   The CO2 formula in Fizzion is designed for these types of soils and therefore cleans them very effectively.

    What are other fabrics I can treat with Fizzion?

    Fizzion has been tested on dozens of fabrics and textiles. Even though Fizzion is a very strong cleaner, it is very gentle on fabric. It can be used on almost anything as long as you follow the instructions.

    Can you use Fizzion instead of a laundry detergent?

    There is not enough concentration in Fizzion to effectively replace traditional laundry detergents but Fizzion is highly effective as a “booster” for stain removal.  Either spot treat the stain by spraying directly on it, or add a couple of tablets to your laundry load to enhance the stain lifting process.
