The talk about haze brings up another topic: Fog/Smoke/Haze... Our space doesn't have smoke detectors in the theatre but I'm told by the management that they have smoke detectors in the air conditioning ducts. Will a fog/smoke/haze machine set these off? Since tech. is usually done last, I'd hate to have the fire alarm go off in the middle of a performance. If you want me to start a new thread, I can...but it was mentioned here.
In my experience with them...
Smoke yes....haze most likely (definetly if its a partical detector)...fog maybe.

There's an in depth on going discusion about all three here...
