Bonviee Misters for Outside Patio, 75FT (23M) Patio Misting System, Outdoor Misters for Patio Cooling, 28 Brass Mist Nozzles, 3/4″ Adapter, DIY Water Misters for Cooling Outdoor Garden Greenhouse

This is a pretty straightforward system. Connects to the hose bib, has about 8′ of blank tubing, and then emitters every 29″. I was hoping there would be some T fittings included so I could get a little more creative with the layout, but there weren’t any. You can shorten it, and it seems like you’d be able to lengthen it by adding another kit to the end. Each emitter has push-in fittings, so it’s fairly easy to change the length. It took me about 20 minutes to set it up, zip-tying each emitter to the waterproof bistro lights I already have hung around my patio. They make a decently fine mist on the pressure provided by my residential well system. That was my biggest concern. When I looked at these systems a few years ago, it seemed like you needed added pressure for them to work properly, but this system doesn’t. As many have noted in other reviews, they can douse the area in water. I noticed that mine got the ground wet on one side of the patio, but not the other. This may be because that side was closer to the spigot, or could be because it was in the shade. But don’t expect to use this and not get a little wet unless you are in an extremely dry climate. Any misting system works by increasing the humidity in the area, which makes it FEEL cooler. But it won’t actually get any cooler. See my photos. After ten minutes, the humidity had increased noticeably, but the temperature had not changed. Although it doesn’t use very much water, I wouldn’t recommend leaving it on for hours. Everything will be drenched. Ideally, you probably want the ability to cycle it on and off for a few minutes at a time. It was noticeably more comfortable on the patio when it was on, but you are balancing the discomfort caused by heat with that caused by being wet. I haven’t had the chance yet to try it in really hot weather (like over 90), but I suspect that’s where it will do best. I also probably wouldn’t bother if you’re in a really humid climate like Florida or the Midwest. It simply won’t do anything if the humidity is already close to 100%. I do wish the individual emitters could be shut off or capped. I’d like to turn certain ones off, either temporarily or permanently, but I don’t see how you can do that with the included parts. Overall, it’s a great system for such a good price, but it could be better.I should add, this would also make a GREAT system for watering a garden. I may order another one for that purpose.
