#1. Preparing for Installation & Measuring
When installing a patio misting system, there is a bit of prep work that needs to be done. This includes gathering the tools and materials necessary to complete the installation, such as the misting system and all of its accessories, a drill with drill bits, and measuring tape.
From there, you can then begin to measure the area where you are installing your patio misting system and plan your layout. While planning the layout, you must ensure that the mist tubing is installed where you want it to help cool. You must also ensure your system has access to power and water for the misting pump.
Once you have considered each of these factors, measured the area where you will be installing the system, and created a plan for the installation, you can begin installing your misting system from The Patio Misting System.
#2. Anchor Misting System Tubing to Structure
The installation process begins with attaching the misting system tubing to a structure – whether it is a wall, ceiling, or other type of existing structure. Regardless of which type of tubing you are installing, Stainless steel mist tube or black flexible misting tubing, the process is the same. Utilize your drill as well as the screws, anchors, and clamps included with our misting system to attach the tubing to your structure.
During this step, ensure the spots for the nozzles are facing outwards – away from the structure – and toward the area you intend to cool. You will need to get screws specific for installation type. Wood screws, stucco/concrete screws, or self tapping metal screws are all common options.
#3. Attach Nozzles & Connect Nylon Tubing
Once your misting system tubing is securely attached to a structure, you may then attach the nozzles that come with each patio mister from The Patio Misting System. Ensure that the nozzles are facing outward and securely – but not overly tightly – attached to the installed tubing. Leave one nozzle toward the end of the system unattached. (It will be attached later – after flushing the system.)
From there you can connect the nylon tubing – that will eventually attach to the misting system pump – to the stainless steel or black flexible tubing installed on the structure. Be sure that the connection is secure and will not leak water.
#4. Set Up the Misting System Pump
The next step is to set up The Patio Misting System pump. First, attach the nylon tubing to the pump using the included water outlet metal connector, ensuring that it is tightly secured to prevent water leaks. Then, connect your misting system pump to a water spigot or hose, which will supply the water needed to create an inviting, cooling mist.
This is a good time make sure you have added 80ML of oil to your patio misting system pump. These instructions are best visualized in The Patio Misting System Installation video HERE.
Once both are connected to the misting system pump, you can then plug your pump into a power source. From there, you can simply switch the system on, and if installed correctly so far, it will be good to go!
#5. Flush the Misting System & Conduct Inspection
Before finishing up, it is important to flush the system to help ensure its cleanliness and conduct an inspection to ensure everything is operating properly.
As noted in step #3, one nozzle was left off of the tubing attached to your structure. Once you turn the system on, water should run through all of the tubing and out of the space where that nozzle is missing. Allow the water to run through the system for a few minutes to ensure any dust or dirt is purged from the tubing. Then, turn the system off and attach the final nozzle.
From there, you will want to run the system again and conduct your inspection. Visually inspect each section of the system to ensure there are no leaks, the nozzles are facing the right direction, and the mist is covering the area you want it to help cool. If pressure is escaping anywhere a connection is not tight, the entire system will no work. The entire system needs to be air tight allowing pressure to only escape at each nozzle.
After your inspection is complete and you have made any necessary adjustments, your misting system will be ready to provide you with the cooling and comfort you have anticipated!
