A hot dry climate needs some moistening, and a DIY misting system is a way to decide this problems. There are several inexpensive modes to make the installation, but variations depend on your area and layout.
If you have a big yard with a lawn and flowers, a DIY misting system for a greenhouse will provide you with fresh air and vegetation. For building you must have a misting kit, a programmable watering timer and hoses. The length of the hoses depends on your area. You have to connect the water supply and the programmable watering timer by means of a hose. The other pipe lays from the timer to the greenhouse, flowerbed or lawn, and is ended with the misting kit. This basic circuit can be adjusted with a programmed moistening schedule, depend on seasons changing. The watering timer can be replaced by a humidistat solenoid valve to start or to stop the humidification depend on the air humidity, or by a thermostat valve, based on temperature. A PVC misting system DIY will prevent the installation from the heating under the sun. For the purpose you can bury the pipes, but it takes a lot of efforts.
Another useful application of the system is the struggle with insects. A DIY mosquito misting system doesn’t differ a lot from a common one. It consists of a reservoir, control unit and a pump, and it can be placed in your preferred location outdoors. Mosquito repellents and sprays are pulverized through the nozzles. It is possible to tune the program for no more than 4 injections per day, each lasting from 30 to 45 seconds. This frequency is conditional on human’s health. In addition, there is a remote control that allows regulating the cycle. A universal repellent of high quality will frighten not only mosquitoes but other insects and pests.
