Haze machine rental for Dallas–Fort Worth events
Haze adds a fine atmospheric layer that makes the shape and movement of event lighting and laser effects more visible. It suits a lighting-focused reception or stage production where a dense cloud is not the goal. Haze machine packages start at $249 standalone or $99 as an add-on to a compatible staffed booking, including the machine and fluid for up to four hours. Room size, ventilation, airflow and venue policies influence the result; confirm approval and setup requirements before booking.
Vertical fog jets for dramatic cues
Vertical fog bursts add a visible plume to a stage moment, entrance or performance cue. Their placement and timing are planned around the audience layout and the desired impact. Share reference images or describe the moment you want to emphasize.
CO₂ jets for wedding entrances, concerts and custom shows
Our illuminated MOKA handheld CO₂ cannon has an RGB barrel and connects by hose to a gas cylinder. The backpack option carries the cylinder on a harness for mobile operation. Our floor units each have two heads: one machine provides two jets, and two machines provide four jets. Choose handheld movement or fixed floor positions around your entrance, music cue or finale. CO₂ equipment and fluid-based fog machines produce different effects; your quote identifies the equipment and operating session included.
See lighting, laser and atmospheric effects in our event gallery, or pair a timed entrance with cold spark rentals.

Common questions
What is included in a CO2 cannon rental?
The backpack starting package includes one cannon/backpack setup, one filled 20-lb tank and one activation session from $399, or from $249 as an add-on to a compatible staffed booking. The floor package starts at $399 for one operated dual-head machine, one filled 20-lb tank and one session. An additional dual-head machine with tank is $249. Your quote confirms the equipment, agreed operating session, delivery, setup, takedown and any travel or site-specific costs.
Should we choose a handheld CO₂ cannon or floor jets?
Handheld and backpack systems support mobile effects; floor machines provide coordinated bursts from fixed positions. One floor machine has two jet heads, and two machines provide four jets. Send your stage or dance-floor layout and planned cue times so placement, venue permission and operation can be reviewed.
Can CO₂ jets accompany wedding lighting or a live show?
Ask about pairing planned bursts with wedding and event lighting, laser effects or a choreographed special-effects show. Share your entrance, first-dance or performance timeline. Effects are selected around venue approval, guest placement and the agreed production plan.
How is haze different from fog or a first-dance cloud?
Haze creates a fine atmospheric layer to reveal beams. Fog produces a more visible cloud or plume, while a first-dance cloud is planned as a low-lying effect. Describe the look you want and share any venue restrictions so we can identify the right equipment.
Can we combine atmospheric effects with lighting?
Yes—ask about a coordinated design. Haze and light beams create a different result from a timed fog burst, so the choice starts with the visual effect you want.
Will the same effect look identical outdoors?
Outdoor air movement can change the appearance and duration of atmospheric effects. We discuss the site and conditions when assessing the proposed setup.
What should I include in my inquiry?
Your venue, event date, guest count, stage or dance-floor size and any reference photos help us discuss a suitable custom production.
