Fogging systems and misting systems are a cost effective and versatile way of controlling temperature, humidity and dust, in your outdoor entertainment area , greenhouse, warehouse, storage facility, quarry, recycling centre (MRF), farm, propagation nursery, or even for air conditioner pre cooling , to cool the air entering your commercial air cond... itioning condenser. Fogging systems and misting systems are often confused with each other as they are substantially the same. The difference between misting and fogging systems being in the size of the droplet they produce. Misting systems typically operate between 100psi and 250psi, with low pressure lines and nozzles. A misting system normally produces droplets around 200 microns in size. Because of its size the droplet will drop to the floor relatively quickly and may cause wetness. High pressure fogging produces a droplet so fine (around 10 microns) that it is able to remain suspended in the air until it evaporates. The size of the fogging droplet also makes it ideal in dusty situations, to bond with dust particles to prevent dust escaping and or being inhaled. At Mistafog we only supply high pressure systems so while we may refer to a misting system as a generic term, our systems are really fogging systems, but we also refer to them as misting systems to avoid confusion for the average user. A misting system is the most effective and uniform method of outdoor cooling or greenhouse cooling and can achieve temperature drops up to 10oC in unshaded and 15oC in shaded greenhouses. High Pressure Fogging Systems produce very small droplets of water of around 10 microns, which are suspended in the air and evaporate before they fall onto the crop. Misting systems that operate at up to 250psi, produce a droplet size of 10 to 20 times that of a High Pressure Fogging System (i.e. 100 to 200 micron) and these droplets are too heavy to be suspended in the air. The increased droplet size leads to poor evaporation, reduced greenhouse cooling effectiveness and significant ...Read More
