Thread: Fog chiller build questions

Tweet

Well I was not going to do fog in my graveyard this year. Because I wanted ground fog. Well I thought it was too much time and money consuming for this year. Well I went to Tillson Street last night, which is a well known 3 block strip of haunts. I saw a great graveyard that had ground fog. It is what mine is missing. So The question is what is the best, quickest and cheapest way to make one. I just picked up a 700w fogger from Spencer gift. So that is the machine I will be using. Thanks. Thanks.

Here are several,I like the ones made from coolers.Keeps ice longer IMHO.

I made one yesterday out of 20 foot of aluminum dryer hose and a blue plastic tote from wal-mart. total cost $20. I tested it last night using about 48 pounds of regular ice (cost $5) and I ran it for about 4 hours before I needed to add more ice. I used one of the 400w gemmy fog machines from wal-mart. I had good coverage. It took me 15 minutes to build. Hope this helps....

Here is a test of the fogger that skullboy gave you a link to:

Chavet 1300 fogger
Chavet fog juice
Path thru the cooler was obstructed by a crumpled up newspaper, in order to slow the fog down and also force it into contact with the ice
20 pds of ice (about 1/2 capacity
10' length of perforated drainage pipe from Home Depot

Not shown in this test: another 10pds or so of ice would probably fit inside the tubing. The ridges would help hold it in place after you get it distributed evenly. The colder, the better!

Keep in mind if there is any wind, even a slight breeze, the fog will dissipate. That's why this test was in my garage. There was maybe a 5mph wind outside, all the fog instantly blew away.
