5. Nail mounting clip into place.
NOTE: The first misting nozzle in your mist system should begin
2-ft from any structure.
6. Continue placing a hanging clip 3-in on each side of each fitting and
hammering in place.
NOTE: Pull tubing slightly while applying each clip to avoid sagging in mist line.
7. Reconnect system to water source and turn on water to pressurize
the system and begin misting.
MIST SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
• Drain water from the mist system when not in use.
NOTE: If an automatic drain valve has not been installed, detach the system at the
water source and allow the water to drain completely.
• Periodically clean the nozzles in the system using nozzle cleaner
(Model 10103) for optimal performance.
• A calcium inhibitor filter (Model 10109W) can be used to prevent any solid
sediments from passing from the water source to nozzles.
• Remove nozzles at the end of the summer season.
• To keep the mist line free from debris in the off season, install nozzle plugs
(Model 10107L) in place of the misting nozzles.
• Before reinstalling your nozzles the following year,
flush the system for 5 minutes.
• Flush the mist line if the system has been idle for over a month.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem SolutionPossible Cause
Nozzles were not
installed correctly
Faulty nozzle
Clogged nozzle
Make sure the nozzle is sufficiently
tightened into place.
HAND TIGHTEN ONLY. DO NOT USE TOOLS
Check to make sure the nozzle O-ring is in place
Clean with nozzle cleaner and/or remove debris
left from inadequate flushing of mist line by
blowing out with air
Leak at
misting nozzles
Water source is turned off
Clogged nozzles
Turn water completely on
Clean nozzles (see maintenance section) —
Do not attempt to clean by sticking foreign
objects into nozzle opening. This will result in
nozzle damage.
Misting system
will not spray
Crack in the tubing Tubing must be replaced where the
leak has occured
Leak in tube
PRE-INSTALLATION TIPS
• The most efficient placement for a mist system is around a perimeter of an
outdoor area. This will form a mist curtain.
• For optimal misting, mount mist line 8-ft to 10-ft above the ground.
• Predetermine your mist system location and where it will attach to the water
source. It is recommended that the system be mounted on the bottom of your
supporting structure.
MIST SYSTEM INSTALLATION
1. Connect the system to a standard garden hose or faucet and turn on the water
at full pressure to flush the system for several minutes.
2. Turn off the water and hand-thread mist nozzles and automatic
drain valve into place.
NOTE: The automatic drain valve should be installed at the end of the feed line for
most installations. This will automatically drain off excess water from the line when
water is turned off, reducing calcium build up in the nozzles. After the system is
mounted, if there are multiple elevation changes, more than one drain valve may be
needed (Model 10115H).
3. With mist line still attached to water source, turn on the water to pressurize
the system and inspect each fitting for proper installation. Should any fitting
leak, see Troubleshooting for instructions.
NOTE: Water will shoot from the drain valve when the water is turned on. The valve
will shut off when the line is pressurized.
4. Turn off water and disconnect the mist system to mount the system.
Begin by placing one of the hanging clips over the mist line 3-in from
the first fitting with a mist nozzle.
