EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT MISTING SYSTEMS: WHAT TO KNOW
Misting systems and misting fans are rapidly gaining popularity as consumers and businesses discover the many benefits of outdoor cooling. These systems have become the go-to solution for patio restaurants, event venues, and backyard oases alike. Available in a wide range of sizes, materials, and configurations, there’s a solution to fit every budget and application—from under-$500 DIY backyard kits to large-scale commercial installations.
Here’s everything you need to know before you invest:
How Much Pressure Do You Need?
It depends on both the use case and the environmental conditions.
High Pressure (1,000 PSI)
- Produces ultra-fine 3–5-micron droplets for up to a 25°F temperature drop, with virtually no residual moisture.
- Ideal for restaurants, resorts, and high-traffic commercial patios.
Mid Pressure (300 PSI)
- More budget-friendly, dispersing slightly larger droplets that evaporate more slowly.
- Works well in dry, desert climates where a little extra moisture isn’t an issue.
Installation of High-Pressure Misting Systems
Professional Installation
- Big Fogg’s own technicians—or our nationwide network of certified installers—handle everything from layout to startup.
DIY Friendly
- Easily mount misting lines to walls or ceilings.
- Requires only a standard water supply and an electrical outlet.
Performance in High Humidity
In humid environments, pair your misting system with wall-mounted or portable fans. The added airflow accelerates evaporation, keeping the space cool and comfortable without feeling clammy.
Water Usage
Big Fogg high-pressure systems and misting fans are remarkably efficient, using far less water than conventional air conditioners. Exact consumption varies based on nozzle size and system scale.
Maintenance & Cleaning
Nozzle Care: Hard water deposits can clog nozzles over time.
- Use a commercial calcium remover or soak nozzles in vinegar.
- Replace nozzles periodically for peak performance.
