Keeping Cool In Arizona
If you live in Arizona, this is probably a "so what?" kind of posting. But for those of us originally from colder parts of the country this is interesting. Many places in Arizona use misters to help keep people cool(er). From what I've read the water mist can lower the air temperature by as much as 30 degrees! And since the humidity around here is usually about 3% or 4%, you don't have to worry about getting people wet. We've seen misters at outdoor malls, movie theater waiting lines and over patios here at Sun Life. One more for the "I had no idea" list.

I had bought some of those mist'rs with the intention of mounting inside our furnace plennum, to increase the humidity. Bad move. Cost me $6000 for a new furnce. No kidding.
ReplyDeleteYikes! Did the mist cause the furnace to rust?
