What is a misting system and what is it?
It is a circuit of pipes with nozzles projecting a refreshing mist for both people and for plants. When the weather is dry and the temperature exceeds 30 ° C, you can reduce it more than 10 ° C;if humidity, about 7 ° C. Spraying the high pressure water allows to achieve very fine droplets evaporates air collect energy as heat producing temperature reduction. This is the same process that allows the human body by transpiration cooling or perspiration, which by evaporating heat is carried; when the humidity is high this reduction is lower.
– Domestic misting kits for porches, terraces and pergolas are very cheap and do not require installing a pressure pump;They can be connected to the tap and act normal pressure on the home network. They are simple to install and uninstall.
Advantages of nebulization
– Refreshes the environment in times of heat and reduces environmental dryness.
– Improving air quality by trapping suspended particles and dust, moisture contributes to precipitate. People with allergies, sensitivity to pollen or other airborne particles benefit greatly from fogging.
– Removes unpleasant odors and purifies the surrounding air.
– Reduce the presence of mosquitoes.
– They are a system that just wastes energy and water. A nebulizer with 6 nozzles 0.3mm consumes about 3 liters of water per hour.
Components of a misting system
– Very fine nozzles emit between 5 and 10 microns, absorbing up to 600 calories per gram environmental water.
– Also optimize consumption: between 2 and 4.5 liters per hour each nozzle, depending on the pressure. Some nozzles include drip valves.
– The injectors have one or more mouths to cover more area sprayed. They can be plugged to dose or direct nebulization.
– The misting system may include a scheduler to automate irrigation according to the ambient temperature and humidity.With it you can select the spraying time and breaks.
– The pipes are flexible (very similar to the drip irrigation) and therefore very easy to install. In addition you can expand, reduce or modify the circuit easily.
– The only precaution required maintenance is to ensure that water does not contain particles that can clog the nozzles. You can easily install one or several additional filters and clean the nozzles from time to time as they are removable.
– When cold days come should remove the nozzles and close the holes with plugs. Remove the entire circuit is not complicated. If left installed, remember completely empty of water so you do not spoil frost
Other applications of misting systems
– Hotels and catering establishments: Nebulizers are very common on the terraces of hotels and restaurants and cool public spaces.
– Landscaping: Fogging produces a beneficial humidity that relieves dryness plants and heat and can grow in warm tropical species but dry climates. Depending on the size of the garden can be necessary to incorporate an electric pump to ensure even pressure throughout the circuit.
– Decoration of gardens and swimming pools:Combining nebulizers and lighting led haze of light and very suggestive are achieved.
– Nurseries and greenhouses: You can install the circuit to generate high humidity or low altitude as a bank irrigation.Moisture favors the rooting of seedlings, the development of plants and control of some pests associated with the heat and dryness as the red spider.
– Industrial facilities are also used in factories with high concentrations of dust and odors as recycling and composting plants, or quarries and cement.
– Wineries: The humidity helps to prevent drying of wooden barrels and evaporation of the wines.
– Animal farms, horse stables, kennels: Try more welfare to animals and results in a positive effect on production.
