A Railroad Town on Highway 79
Rockdale is a Milam County town on US 79, northeast of Taylor. It grew up around the railroad, and it still has a small-town downtown and streets of older homes. Around it are rental houses, ranch homes and country places on acreage, many of them lived in by the same family for years.
Every one of those homes builds up a bio-load over time, the tiny particles that collect in the air, on surfaces and inside the HVAC system. Read What Is Your Home's Bio-Load? to learn more.
Where Rockdale Homes Hold On to Stale Air
Older closets and hallways. Small spaces with no airflow hold on to a stale smell, and so do the clothes and linens inside.
Rental houses between tenants. Pets, smoking and cooking can leave a smell behind. Paint and carpet cleaning help, but they don't reach the ducts. See our rental turnover guide.
Country homes. Dust from dirt roads, hay and pets comes in every day.
Ducts in the attic. In a long Texas cooling season, the AC runs for months, and whatever sits in the ducts gets blown into every room.
How the Dry Fog Treatment Helps
We use the patented VaPURE dry fog system. It makes a fog of droplets about 7 microns across, fine enough to float into every room, closet, crack and crevice and through the HVAC ductwork under positive pressure. It helps reduce the bio-load and neutralize odors on hard, non-porous surfaces, and it temporarily reduces airborne particulates as it settles. A surface protectant is applied the same way.
Nothing gets soaked. The treatment is done in one day, and you're back home the same day after a 2 to 4 hour air-out.

Rockdale FAQ
Will it help with cigarette smoke from a past owner?
The dry fog helps neutralize odors on hard, non-porous surfaces. Heavy, long-term smoke often soaks into drywall, carpet and padding, and those may also need cleaning, sealing or replacing. We'll be honest with you when we talk. Our smoke odors guide explains more.
How long do we need to be out?
Plan for the treatment plus a 2 to 4 hour air-out. You're back home the same day.
