How to Use
The BC380 Ocean Breeze Large Evaporative Mist Cooling Kit is used through the hot summer months to cool patios, pool sides, and work areas. The misting kit operates at the pressure normally found in homes, without the need for expensive pumps, creating micro sized water droplets to maximize the cooling effect. By increasing the moisture content of the surrounding air, the OCEAN BREEZE Large Evaporative Mist Cooling Kit can dramatically reduce the air temperature.
Start the kit from a faucet or garden hose
To create your own microclimate, follow these step by step instructions, then sit back and enjoy the cooling comfort of an Ocean Breeze.
- Place the screen inside the 3/4" swivel faucet connector and attach it to the water source. If water quality is a concern, we highly recommending using a fine mesh ¾ in. filter, not included with this kit.
- Insert the end of the misting line pipe into the faucet connector for about 1/2" to 5/8” by pushing and wiggling the pipe inward and applying some force.
- Lay out the misting line pipe at a height of 8’ to 12’ above the area and use the “C” clamps included in the kit every 2’ to 3’, securing the misting line pipe to the structure.
- At the location where the first fogger is to be placed, use the punch tool to create a hole in the misting line pipe at a 90° to 120° angle to the ground.
- Insert the barbed end of the fogger into the hole. Continue using the same method to install each of the remaining foggers.
- Turn the water on to flush the line and then use the misting line end to close the end of the misting line pipe.
- Turn the water on again and test the system making sure that each fogger is operating correctly.
- To automate this kit, install a misting timer that can operate for a limited time through the day and includes a short cycle.
