About Mist Systems and Misting Fans

Basically, the factors are height of installation, length required, and humidity levels in your area. If it is humid, we will recommend a different setup for your mist system–but it will still work very effectively for you.

Yes. The orifices of the misting nozzles are so small, that they can clog if your water has any particulates in it. Our basic filter kit will be sufficient for most users. It filters out any particles in your water down to 5 microns in size. For even better clog-free performance, choose a double filter setup with one 5 micron filter and one 1 micron filter. This almost completely assures clog-free use for your.

Very minimal maintenance should be necessary for misting systems. Yearly cleaning of the nozzles will help avoid clogging. And the pumps do have oil that will need to be changed every so often, depending mostly on hours of service. Often it is not necessary to do anything for a year or two at a time.

The number of nozzles and the size of nozzles are the primary factors in determining how much water your mist system will use. For instance, a 50- foot system using standard .012 size nozzles spaced every 30 inches would use 0.6 gallons per minute.

Yes. Using our misting rings you can easily retrofit your fans to be misting fans. If you have good quality fans in your home or business, these conversions can generate nice savings.

Absolutely! Purchases of misting systems and misting fans are 100% guaranteed to be safe and secure. Moreover, your credit card information is used only to process your transaction (we never store it). We guarantee that your personal and financial information will never be given or sold to any outside parties.

For bigger areas, misting fans are the right choice. They provide the cooling power of mist, but also spread the cool air around to a much bigger area. For warehouse cooling, outdoor cooling such as crowd or event cooling, misting fans are also the best choice. For smaller or more confined areas, such as patios and outdoor eating areas, mist systems are the better option. Most often the need for fans or movement of air is unnecessary, as the misting provides more than enough evaporative cooling to make conditions comfortable.

Given the size of our systems, we normally freight-ship our misting systems and misting fans. They will arrive on a pallet on your driveway or business delivery dock. Shipments of multiple parts or components will be combined whenever possible to save on shipping costs for customers. Smaller item shipments will be shipped via UPS.

The only way to achieve evaporative cooling without wetting is with higher pressure pumps and very small nozzle orifices. Forcing water through very small nozzles creates a micro-fine fog that easily evaporates into the air. Those cheap systems from the big box stores only work by wetting; thus, cooling is actually less effective as well.

We will help you make that decision. To start with, please take a look at our helpful tools we offer on this site.

Again, it depends on the size of the nozzles you are planning to use. Residential/Commercial pumps are normally 1-5 gallons per minute. We do offer much larger ones for agricultural or industrial users. Here is a simple guide :

• 1gpm – 32 standard (.012) nozzles (More if smaller nozzles are used)
• 2gpm – 64 standard (.012) nozzles (More if smaller nozzles are used)
• 3gpm – 100 standard (.012) nozzles (More if smaller nozzles are used
• 4gpm – 130 standard (.012) nozzles (More if smaller nozzles are used
• 5gpm – 160 standard (.012) nozzles (More if smaller nozzles are used)
