Koolfog Explains the Value of Misting System Winter Shut Down Service

December 23, 2015 - The thought of misting systems usually conjures images of warm summer days and relaxing by the pool, so why are we talking about them now, in the winter? Luckily, misting systems generally require minimal maintenance, but taking care of them in the cold months will help assure that they will be ready to go when the heat comes back. Here, Koolfog shares how misting system winter service can help extend the life of your misting system.

But California Winters Are Mild
While it's true that some California days are often still in the 70s throughout the winter, the nights can get significantly colder. It only takes one night at 36 degrees (i.e. a few degrees above freezing) to cause leaks, bursts or cracks in your misting system's components or pipes. And most importantly, you want to protect your Koolfog pump. Additionally, water sitting in your pipes can cause stagnation and should be evacuated if you aren't using the system for an extended time.

Seasonal Shut Down Service
Expert technicians should always perform a multi-point inspection to ensure all components are in good shape and include the following services:

Disconnect the water supply

Empty water filter canisters

Air dry Lines using compressed air

Disconnect the power supply

Deliver to the client a report with recommendations (if any) of additional service and repair needs
