Misting fans typically reduce the temperature by 5 degrees C. Industrial misting systems can achieve a 10 degree C reduction.
Misting fans work best in dry climates, as we are experiencing at the moment. I've avoided turning on the air conditioner, being quite content using the fan.
Misting is not as effective in high humidity, such as we experience during and after the rainy season.
This misting system is ideal for home use, both indoor and outdoor.
Bought mine last year, on sale, quite a lot cheaper than the price listed at Astine fans.
The fan is ideal for an area of an average room.
Larger areas require more high powered systems as can be seen at Masterkool or Tropical Mist System, Thailand.
If misting fans aren't in your future, hang a damp cloth over your fan. Avoid dripping water on the motor housing. Towel needs to be moistened about every five minutes, but it's quite effective, especially on high powered fans.
While traveling, a towel moistened in water and rubbing alcohol applied to the skin is quite effective for a temporary cooling.
Why does your skin get cold when it comes in contact with rubbing alcohol?
