- DIY Water Mist System for Summer - PVC Pipe Project
With summer comes the hot weather. So here is a great way to help cool down those summer days you want to spend outside with friends.
I am using a 10' x 10' Canopy to hold the PVC pipe, but the length of the pipe can be customized to your needs.
This is a heavy duty version that can be disassembled and transported to other locations.

Hats off to you as the only one who doesn't skip over the NEED TO DRILL HOLES for the nozzles!
Thanx for sharing!! Did this at one of my party's when weather was 95 plus humidity!!! It worked out awsome
Good tips here. I've always used the preassembled systems sold in the stores with the flexible tubing instead of PVC. There are pros and cons: it allows you to turn individual nozzles to a different direction, but sometimes it's hard to get them to stay where you want, which your assures. Also, 2:16, great idea on adding the mesh gasket inside hose.
My problem is always what I can use to support the system. I use shade sails, which aren't sturdy structures. Guess I'm going to have to construct a frame to hold the tubing.
Thanks for great video that doesn't leave anything out!
The PVC master helping out as always
Fantastic! We've got a crafts fair tent like that and adding a misting system would make even the hottest summer day bearable...just like the refreshing misting tunnels at theme parks like Six Flags. Your ingenuity never ceases to amaze..and I saw some new things like the PVC cutters and that threaded drill bit. Another thumbs up! Don
+Winkiedoodles Thank you very much Don
I've been wanting to do this exact thing for under my deck. Great video and thanks for posting. I figured this would be rather easy but i like the twist of making it portable.
+DIY Brad Thank you
I like how adaptable this is, you can use just one section or all of them
Thank you
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
Great idea! Thanks for the tutorial I really appreciate it
That will feel wonderful on a hot day. great idea!
+TheLightHouseLady Thank you
thanks for sharing! i will use your system for my front door entrance patio.
Speaking for all hearing issues viewers, thanks for not having your music over power your voice over and thanks for not choosing an ANNOYING DITTY.
You are very welcome. And thank you for making me more aware of the issues for people like yourself. I will do my best to keep providing this type of quality.
Excellent job, Steve. That will be so nice this summer.
+CrankyPants Thanks
Steves job
Outstanding. Thanks for sharing!
+Teresa White Thanks
This is an awesome idea can't wait to try it myself👍🏼
+Ronald Hayes Thanks
Awesome project this will be excellent for summer in Deep South Texas the heat out here can be quite challenging ,you your videos are awesome they sure help me out 👍😃
Glad we can help
Thank you!
Simple, inexpensive & well presented, without an overly long video!!!!
+Pat Hartzog Thank you very much.
Specific Love Creations you are most welcome.
Pat Hartzog I too love videos that are right to the point... no over explaining or repetitive narrative.
Specific Love Creations, you are most welcome.
great video! Next time provide a parts listing to be copied and taken to store and a cost estimate for the size canopy in use...just a suggestion!
Thanks for sharing, this is great!
This is awesome. Thank you very much!
Great idea !!
thanks
Great idea thanks take care.
Thank you
Thanks very muhc for sharing
Excellent ❤🎉🎉
That is a great idea, if there was a way to have the water supply without the hose, so it could be used at a sports complex. That was sale very well.
May I suggest using bungee cords instead of zip ties to maintain the concept of portability?👍🏼
But the elastic degrades in the sun, the heat, and when they get wet.
Where were you last week when it was 100 where I live. I was wishing for a misting system around my bed so I could sleep.....LOL
Gives new meaning to a water bed :)
Awesome vid!!
Thanks
Awsome ideas 🤗 thank you for sharing
+juliet bonilla Very welcome
Cool idea. I would use half inch pvc unions instead of adapters.
They will screw right into that Rainbird style drip irrigation flexible tubing, and hold under pressure. They emit such a small amount of water per minute that tubing is plenty big enough if you have good water pressure, good for at least 7 per tube.
love this! can you please tell me the size of the drill bit you used as i have the exact same nozzles please?
That's one one of your best yet. I'm going to try that on my deck.
+Alex Mosley Thank you. Have fun building.
I wonder 🤔... Gonna try and make a diy nebia shower head! Wish me luck!
neat idea
+Luke Martin thanks
This would be great for those who have outside animals like rabbits, etc... Jen
+Christian Adventure Films I did not think about that, good idea.
Nice!!
thanks
Very nice and clean
Very nice! I hate zip ties.. "hook and loop straps" would be perfect for this project.
+James Zawacki That can work too, good suggestion.
Shower curtain rings?
Very interesting!!! What pressure would you reccomend ? Thanks a lot.
Would it be more ideal to drill the holes one size smaller then hand thread the holes? Would keep the heat down for certain.
Too good
This is a really cool idea. 😉
+Janet Flores 😁
If this is portable what is your water source? I wonder if you could use a spray pump for tailgating?
You should mention that these types of misters work on a principle called flash evaporation. If your relative humidity is above 30% these will jsuy get you wet.
leo ll so I guess this is not good for Florida...humidity is very high here.
Nice!!!!😌
You should make some homemade gym equipment. Weighted pvc for example
Good idea, maybe
I need this in my life 👍😁👏 I this is what I wanna put on my deck . Now I just need to get someone to do it for me Lolol my boyfriend not too handy ☹️ he’s very strong 💪 but, not handy 🤨
Sounds like he needs training. No time the present for him to learn! 😊
I don't suppose you remember the drill bit size with the thread pitch?
The link for it is in the description..
Cool video!!
+Aloha Islanders Thank you
Love this idea, but if the corners are glued, how is it disassembled? Thanks for taking the time to post this
+Paul Belke They unscrew at the screw together connectors, which are not glued.
I'm gonna build it!!
+Wil Wilkerson Awesome, have fun
What is the size for the PVC you used?
Great idea. I am going to adapt this idea and make a sort of cage/box that will fit over my A/C unit and the spray will cool the unit when it is on.... instead of attaching the misters directly to the A/C unit itself. I will be able to just lift the thing off and store it inside during the colder months. One question.... where exactly did you pick up that drill/tap tool? What is the correct size of tap to use to thread the misters (the ones you suggested) onto the PVC pipe?
+cattail3 A link to the tap and misters are in the description.
Can I use smaller pipe to do the work? Smaller in pipe diameter
Cool project as usual, thanks! Just wondering but do you think it would be possible to make a small enough hole in the PVC that you wouldn't need a misting nozzle (maybe using a hot sewing pin)
Chances are it would a very small stream of water instead of a mist.
NO!🤣 NO! Kinda like using chicken wire for your screen door-- it just won't keep bugs out!
The finer the mist, the better the cooling effect. Achieved by the quality of the nozzle and the force that sends the water through them.
very nice and interesting instructive video
+Live Bait Boat Miami Beach Thank you
Hi, I'm guessing that you had the water supply side of the system hooked up to a regular water spigot/hose. But how 'open' did you have the faucet turned on? Was it cranked wide open, or just a turn or two? I wonder if turning on full blast might put undo strain on the various joints, causing eventual leakage?
+playokay We are on a lower pressure well system and used the garden hose at full pressure. But the PVC is rated for much higher pressure. So as long as you have glued the joints correctly, there should not be any problem with a standard home water pressure.
Always wrap Teflon in a counter clockwise direction, or else it will roll back on itself and do you no good. 👍
Dear brother.
The mist system is advisable to install in my workshop having machines which producing disposable paper cups?
What would you say was the total cost of this project?
Thanks for the video. Yo Know what pressure do I need for the misters work propertly.
Not sure in the minimum, but mine works at 50-60 psi
Good question
What size drill bit? Thanks!
What is the link for the bit set? does not work
Did u connect it directly to the tap or connected to a compressor???
what kind of pump did you use?
Good day! How many mm does the misting nozzle have?
Subbed
complete video please
I want to built a small version for my room so I can apply it in from of my table fan and enjoy the cool breeze..any tips?
The sprayer will get a lot of stuff damp in your room. I would just use them outside.
Ide listen your room would smell of mold and if left long enough could develop mold and possibly not the good kind causing health issues
Can you list all the materials and tools used for this project. I'd love to try and do this on my own and I'm not that handy yet.
All in the description. 😊
So running some calculations based on the number of mister tips and the Gallon per hour number you said...is this running 4,5,6 GPH, maybe a little more?
+stormthrush37 I think it might be a little closer to 10 gph, but it depends on the pressure.
Currious what size those misters are bc I bought .3mm ones and I think it's to fine thinking about buying .8mm ones.
The rule is usually the finer the mister the better the quality of the cooling.
Any ideas of how to adapt this for an umbrella. It would have to be very easy to disassemble quickly when the umbrella is lowered. Or create a single stand one that could be left up and not attached to umbrella. Thanks for any input.
For an umbrella, you might be able to use a small hose instead of pvc.
Orbit sells a ready made portable set for around $15. It uses small flexible hose with 5 nozzles in place, and clips!
Where did you get the misters from?
Did not hear what size drill bit, only showed it. Drill bit size?
Which motor do you use? Pls answer
Dear sir please reply
Not required pressure water pump
Will it work with gravity? And work vertical pipes blasting horizon nozzles?
Not enough pressure
@@SpecificLove7 thanks so for every nozzle it needs that minimum pressure for each one added at least. Do you know what's better? Water pressure or air pressure delivered nozzles would you happen to know? Thanks
Wow wow this is Nice!! I'm not a DIY girl! Would you make some systems like this for sale?
They sell these at home stores, and online. Orbit is one company. There are several 'levels' of premade misting systems; they vary according to the size of the flexible tubing, some made with PVC like here, some have pumps, etc.
I've have these for years, always getting the cheaper premade ones - they are portable, and you just replace the nozzles when then they stop spraying right. But you also clean the nozzles every month or 2 by removing and soaking in vinegar for 20 minutes.
I couldnt imagine an enjoyable summer without these-- and a couple tiki torches!😋
Nice video.I need one information.I live in southern India where in summer temperature goes up to 40 deg c and humidity will be 77%.The roof of my house is made of concrete and to reduce heat I gave metal sheet roofing still I cant find any difference in reducing the heat inside the room especially during night time.I would like to know if I could moisten the metal roof by fixing flexible vinyl tubing on top of the metal roof and putting finer holes on these tubes.These tubes can be connected to the super cooled water from Peltier chip and circulate the water using a medium size aquarium pump, so that the roof gets cooled down and the room temperature will be reduced.But will this idea work ?
That's HIGH humidity. These dont make anything good in humid areas. They work best in dry heat. Sorry🙁
Jospeh,. For India we need our indigenous solution, such videos should inspire us to create our own as per our condition.
Your plan ia good too, pl make your video n spread the good technology
Did u use compressor here
Hello Sir, i was wondering if you may have a parts list because i am interested in replicating this "DIY" for this coming 4th of July. My two best friends and i are having a small grill party in my backyard with our families and we want to beat the Summer heat and enjoy our Family Time😎😌🏜
Parts list with links for the DIY mister is in the description. Any good plumbing or local hardware store can help you make sure you get the right elbow and end caps. You can take screenshots for that part, or just tell them what you’re doing. They’ll hook you up. The nozzles and drill bit are very reasonable, at least they are today. 22 mist nozzles for $10, and under $12 for the threading drill bit. PVC is cheap enough as well.
Who many water used in one hour DIY mist system
Love the video! I was wondering, does any of the Mister head's drip by doing it this method with the threaded drill bit? I used a regular drill bit and of course they leak, so I'm trying to find the kind of bit you're using, what exactly is the bit called? Having a hard time finding it at the hardware store so I may have to order it
There is an Amazon link in description that should take you to the bits. And mine did not drip.
Awesome!!! I'll order the bits right now! Thank you so much!
@@SpecificLove7 That link is broken :/
@@Onlinemediamasters I updated the link, thank you for letting me know.
Specific Love Creations where did you buy the nozzles and what size was the drill bit and where can i buy that as well?
Can you use this if it's cold enough to make snow?
Uh No. if it’s that cold to have snow, the wtaer would be frozen. You don’t want frozen water in the pipe to begin with
Make fishing gear and more rafts/boats
I have a few ideas for the future
Nice but Where is the pump here
This is called "low-pressure misting" because it relies on city water pressure, which is not high enough to create true evaporative mist. After a couple of minutes, all the floors and furnitures will get wet from this. It works, but... it's better to use it to water plants
used a pump?
Any reason why this could not be used for a mosquito misting system? I imagine a sump pump in a barrel on a timer could do it. Maybe even using an off the shelf controller or build an arduino. But the actual question is: Would these misting heads work for water carrying oils or chemicals?
I would not think so, but I am not sure.
Actually misting symptoms already repel small flying insects the mist makes it hard for them to fly through
if u use the zip ties backwards you wont have to cut them and waste so much... it might would help be worth a try i would think!
Ok, thanks
heavy duty velcro strips might work well also, the zip ties wear out eventually
Great idea, thank you
Which capacity motor used for this ?
Water pressure from faucet is all that's needed!😘
You probably flushed out the lines first before installing the misting heads.😉
How mach gpm and pressuer
Piping sink what pump you put
You dont need a pump. The pressure from turning on the faucet works!
you forget to mention the source of water to misting system. do you think the pressure in your faucet is enough to burst out those mist?
It is on mine
The faucet gives great enough pressure, and no, not too much that will burst the nozzles or system.
@@SpecificLove7 not interested. I have small diaphragm pump for my misting system.
The floor will probably get wet within 1 minute, the mist most likely will not be fine enough.
Hi... What type of pump have you used
No pump, it was from the hose house pressure.
your local water district pump
What hp of pump did you use?
Water pressure from faucet alone, no pump, no compressor.
@@PHanomaly thanks for the reply
