Cool be'ngs!

Cool be\'ngs!

During hot times its imperative that our bodies get cooled down. Even if we don't get hot enough to get heat stroke/exhaustion being hot reduces mental capacity.

Of course, comfort too is important.

Here's something that could be used on any job:

Set it up on a tripod made from pole saw sections, PVC or conduit.

WE'd have some cool beings at work

I have two of these foggers that attach to a garden hose.
The three mister nozzles create a cooling fog that gives
one a nice cool.

You can thread your hose in the low boughs or use a pipe to hose adpaptor to a ground spike portion of a sprinkler.

Play Misty for me.

Less than $8 at most places on line.

Dan,

Does the ground around the area get muddy because of over spray? I would guess that if its a mist then very little hits the ground.

Good source!

Good idea but the camelbak has worked wonders for me.

Not really muddy but an all day spray will get the ground wet so place it on good grass.

I bought mine at a big greenhouse/garden store for $13 but online you can find them at many flow rates.

The higher the nozzle the less the ground soak.

You can secure it high on a limb by lashing it pointing upward and live with the drips off of the leaves.

For portable I have a garden sprayer labeld "Drinking Water ONLY" that has a nice mist. It sets in a 5 gallon pickle bucket filled with ice so it really chills.
