A Fan Mister Makes Your Backyard Patio A Comfortable Space Year-Round

Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

Summer in all parts of the world, except in the Polar Regions, is getting hotter and hotter. The general consensus in the scientific world is that the world-wide average temperature is 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit higher than the 1800s, much of the surge happened during recent decades. And the rate which it climbs keeps on increasing. Whatever the reason is-man-made or natural-there’s no denying that summer these days is really blazing hot. Fortunately, we now have the fan mister, or misting fan.

A fan with a misting attachment is much more effective than an old-fashioned fan for a variety of reason. Mechanical fans simply blow air at the user. As the air stops moving towards you, your body continues to sweat in order to cool down your body temperature. It is the air from the mechanical fan causing that sweat to evaporate that makes your body feel much cooler as your body stops making sweat.

Equipped with a high pressure pump and self-contained filtration system, a fan with an attached mister would pump out cool water droplets as small as 10 microns. These fine water droplets will evaporate fast upon making contact with the air. When this happens, the coolness of the water droplets is transferred to the surrounding air. And when the cooled air touches your skin, sweat evaporates from it quickly. The quicker it evaporates, the cooler you feel.
