ST TE EP P 9 9: :Route ¼” mister line through the boat flooring to the T Adapter. Most boats have small drains or openings in the floor or sidewalls and the
mister tube can be easily routed. If not, then simply: Drill a 3/8” hole in the floor (be careful not to drill hole that may cause damage)

ST TE EP P 1 12 2: : Position the middle mister head in the middle of the Bimini Top. If your bimini top has canvas surrounding the arch in the middle…you
have two options. One is placing the tubing and misting head on the outside of the canvas pocket and strap the tube on either end of the
canvas or you might want to put a small slit in the canvas holding the bimini arch, slide the misting head and tubing into the canvas
pocket and place the middle misting head out where the slit is. Use the supplied Velcro straps to attach the mister head to the Bimini arch
on either end of the canvas surrounding the arch…keep the straps as close to either side of the canvas/head as possible. Then attach other
two mister heads with Velcro straps.

Follow these simple steps:
STEP 1: Turn OFF the on/off valve.
STEP 2: Disconnect line going to the Bimini Top from the on/off valve (non-pressure side) by pushing the ring at the mouth of the fitting towards
the fitting and simultaneously pull the tube out of it.
STEP 3: Let water drain from the tubing
STEP 4: Carefully coil mister line into a 12” diameter loop being careful not to pinch line.
P UT AWAY UNTIL ANOTHER HOT DAY !
Maintenance
Included in your mister kit is an extra mister head. If you notice a head not providing a fine mist, turn off mister and replace head with spare mister
head. To disconnect, push the ring at mouth of the fitting toward the fitting and simultaneously push/pull the tube out of it. You may need pliers; be
careful not to pinch head or tubing.
To clean the head use CLR or Lime Away. Pour a small amount of CLR or Lime Away into a small container enough to cover mister head and
follow instructions on bottle for how long to soak. Once head is clean it can be reinserted in the system.
Routine Maintenance
Heads should be routinely cleaned every 3 months or before a long storage using the instructions above, this will prevent the build up of calcium and
lime in mister heads.

Mist-er-Comfort warrants that Mist-er-Comfort’s products shall be free of defect in materials and workmanship under normal use within the
operating specifications for a period of one (1) year from the date of purchase provided that:
A.) The above warranty shall not apply to any such product part thereof which is damaged as a result of neglect, misuse, alteration, accident,
normal wear and tear, misapplication, fire, act of God, freezing, hot water, chemical, flammable or salt water;
B.) Purchaser’s exclusive remedies under the above warranty shall be limited to the repair or replacement of the non-conforming product or
part(s) thereof, as determined by Mist-er-Comfort.
C.) Any non-conforming product must be returned to Mist-er-Comfort within one (1) year from its purchase.
D.) The warranty contained above does not extend to any goods not manufactured by Mist-er-Comfort even though supplied by Mist-er-
Comfort. Goods not manufactured by Mist-er-Comfort carry only the warranty (if any) of their makers and the Purchaser is entitled to the
benefit thereof only so far as Mist-er-Comfort has the power to transfer it;
E.) Mist-er-Comfort shall not be liable for any special, indirect, or consequential damages;
F.) I MPORTANT N OTE :Mister Nozzles have orifices as fine as human hair, hence bad water that has sediment and or hard water would
drastically affect its performance of the nozzles by getting its orifices clogged.
BE SURE TO DRAIN TUBING AFTER EACH USE… NOT DOING SO WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
There are no two water sources alike, hence it is the sole responsibility of the customer to protect his or her nozzles from getting clogged
by installing the proper sediment or polyphosphate filter upstream from the misters, so they would be protected against sediment and lime
buildup (if need be). When several nozzles get clogged together that is an obvious indication the water source is bad. If nozzles are
subjected to bad water and they get clogged because of that, the misting system can not be returned. The warranty does not cover
clogging due to sediments or lime build-up.
G.) All our orders are shipped economy class via UPS or USPS. There is an extra charge for Air and Express deliveries.
H.) Product design can change at anytime without notice.
I.) Return shipping and handling cost is to the expense of the customer/buyer.
