misting systems are not all equal.

In fact, some “misting systems” don’t use high pressure at all. We’ve all seen those low cost “patio misting systems” at the big box hardware stores. Hook them up to the hose, hang the lines and everything is cool and nice, right? Well….those so-called patio misting systems aren’t much more than mini-sprinklers. Everything gets wet while your space is only 10 degrees cooler.

High pressure misting systems cool by cooling the space…not by getting everyone wet. By using high pressure (at least 1000psi), water is forced through tiny nozzles, producing a micro-fine mist. When the mist evaporates into the air, it actually “uses” heat in the process. With millions of tiny droplets evaporating into the air, and each one taking a small bit of heat with it, HUGE cooling occurs instantly. You can expect our patio misting systems to bring up to 35 degrees of cooling, thanks to the best mist cooling technology in the business–and the natural process of evaporative cooling.

What is “Flash Cooling?”

For true cooling power and for staying dry we need to create a fine enough mist that will evaporate in the air. When the water evaporates, you get much greater cooling, and NOTHING GETS WET! The results can be amazing. Flash cooling is the wonderful result of the evaporation of water in the air. The dynamic process of evaporation actually uses heat from the air. The water is gone, taking a little heat with every tiny droplet. Multiply that by thousands and thousands of droplets evaporating into the air and you can really achieve some serious cooling with high-pressure misting.
