Mist House: Make Every Outdoor Space at Your House Cooler
A mist house is a home where the patio, the pergola, the pool edge and the outdoor kitchen all stay comfortable on hot afternoons. Mist House shows how one Patio Misting System Pro kit, with its 1000 PSI pump and 100 ft of line, can wrap the outdoor rooms of your house in a fine, flash-evaporating mist.

Quick answer: what is a mist house?
A mist house is a home set up with high-pressure outdoor misting around the spaces people actually use: patio, pergola, pool deck and grill area. The Patio Misting System Pro does this with one quiet 1000 PSI pump feeding up to 100 ft of 1/4" line and 50 stainless nozzles, and it says it can cool up to 30°F depending on heat and humidity.
Mist House zones around your home
Think of your house in zones. One Patio Misting System run can link several of them as long as the total line stays within 100 ft.
Back patio
The main hangout. Mount the Mist House line along the cover edge so the mist hangs over the table.
Pergola
Clamp the tubing to a beam; open slats let the mist drift down and evaporate.
Pool edge
A line on a cabana or shade frame keeps loungers cool without soaking the deck.
Outdoor kitchen
Keep nozzles a little away from the grill and cooktop; cool the cook, not the flame.
Front porch
Smaller runs work here. Cut the tubing to length and cap the end.
Side yard or dog run
Mixed nozzle sizes let you go lighter in tight spaces.
One pump, a whole Mist House
The center of a Mist House is the pump. The Patio Misting System Pro uses an oil-lubricated, 3-piston pump rated at 1000 PSI. Because it can sit away from the line without losing pressure, you can hide it in a utility corner and route tubing to the zones you care about.
With 100 ft of tubing in the box, a single kit can bend around corners using the included 90° L connectors and branch with the T connectors, so a patio and a pergola can share one Mist House system.
Quiet enough for the whole family
A Mist House only works if people want to sit in it. The Patio Misting System pump runs under 56 dB, so conversations, music and the TV on the patio carry on as normal.
Bluetooth and remote control mean you can start the mist from the kitchen before guests walk out, then turn it off when the sun goes down.
Built from stainless, made for the outside of a home
The nozzles and connectors in The Patio Misting System are stainless steel, and the 1/4" tubing can be upgraded to stainless when you want a cleaner look on a finished house. Install help for anchoring to wood, stucco or concrete is at PatioMistingSystemInstallation.com.

How to choose a Mist House system
- Map your zones. List the outdoor rooms you want cooled and add up their edge lengths.
- Stay within 100 ft. The Pro kit ships with 100 ft of line; trim it to fit and cap unused ends.
- Place the pump once. Pick a shaded, ventilated spot near a hose spigot and a standard outlet.
- Mix nozzle sizes by zone. Use .3mm for open, hot zones and .15mm or .1mm near doors and furniture.
- Plan for water quality. Use the included calcium inhibitor filter; add a second inline filter if your water is hard.
