Let’s be honest – most of us don’t have time (or space!) for a lineup of different cleaners for every surface in the house. You want something that works on the sticky kitchen counter, the bathroom sink, and whatever your kids just touched…without worrying about what’s in it.
That’s where Force of Nature comes in. Using electrolyzed water technology, it creates hypochlorous acid – a cleaning and disinfecting solution that kills 99.9% of germs when used as directed on hard, non-porous surfaces.
In this guide, we’ll walk through what Force of Nature can clean, how it performs compared to traditional cleaners like bleach, and whether it can really replace the multiple products under your sink.
Looking for the Best Non-Toxic Disinfectant? Here’s What to Know
If you’ve ever stood in the cleaning aisle trying to find something that actually disinfects and feels safe to use around your kids, you know how frustrating it can be. Most products either rely on harsh chemicals or don’t truly disinfect at all.
That’s where Force of Nature is different. Instead of using traditional chemical disinfectants like bleach or quaternary ammonium compounds (quats), Force of Nature uses electrolyzed water technology to create hypochlorous acid, a disinfecting ingredient that kills 99.9% of germs when used as directed on hard, non-porous surfaces.
Hypochlorous acid isn’t a new or synthetic ingredient – it’s the same substance your immune system produces to fight bacteria and viruses. Because of that, it’s widely used in settings like wound care and eye care, where both effectiveness and safety matter.
The key distinction is that not all electrolyzed water solutions meet disinfecting standards.
That’s an important distinction, because many products labeled as “electrolyzed water” don’t meet EPA requirements to be EPA registered disinfectants.
If you’re trying to simplify what’s under your sink without compromising on effectiveness, this is where electrolyzed water – done right – can replace multiple products with one system.
If you’re curious about the science behind it, electrolyzed water is the technology that makes all of this possible.
What Can Force of Nature Clean?
One of the biggest benefits of Force of Nature is how much it can replace. Instead of switching between multiple products, you can use it across a wide range of surfaces in your home.
- Kitchen counters, high chairs, and sealed stone surfaces
- Bathroom sinks, tubs, and toilets
- Glass and mirrors
- Appliances and stainless steel surfaces
- Odor-prone areas like kitty litter, trash cans, and stinky sports gear
- Kids’ toys, changing tables, and high-touch areas
Because it cleans, deodorizes and disinfects, it works for everything from visible messes to the germs you can’t see without needing separate products for each job.
Does Force of Nature Really Disinfect?
Yes Force of Nature is a medical-grade EPA-registered disinfectant that kills 99.9% of bacteria, viruses, mold and mildew when used as directed on hard, non-porous surfaces. This includes Norovirus, Salmonella, Staph, MRSA, E. Coli, Pseudomonas and Listeria. You can see Force of Nature’s independent lab test results for full details.
That’s what makes it different from many “natural” cleaners – they may clean surfaces, but they don’t deodorize or disinfect. Force of Nature does all 3.

If it’s new to you, electrolyzed water is a simple technology that’s been in the industrial space for 50+ years, used for applications including green cleaning & disinfecting, produce preservation, dental, wound healing, eye care and veterinary care products. It uses electricity to change the chemical structure of salt, water & vinegar into a cleaner as effective as bleach, but with no toxic chemicals. It’s so gentle that no gloves or rinsing are needed. Hospitals in the United States and Japan use electrolyzed water for its efficacy & gentleness.
Here’s a little video that explains the chemistry:
Hypochlorous acid is the same substance your white blood cells produce to fight infection. Yes you caught that right – hypochlorous acid is your immune system’s first line of defense, and if you happen to be in a public restroom or nursery school right now, your body is making it as you read this!
Why you can’t buy electrolyzed water in stores
You might be wondering why you haven’t found bottles of electrolyzed water on store shelves. The reason is that just like bubbles in carbonated drinks, hypochlorous acid dissipates over time. That means a bottle of electrolyzed water sitting on a shelf or in a warehouse would lose its efficacy in just a couple of weeks. That’s one of the top reasons it’s only been used in the industrial space, where it’s made in large tanks and used up on site. The other reason you haven’t seen it is those industrial size tanks and the $10,000+ price point for buying the equipment.
