Directional Misting for Cooling and Humidity Control
Whether you are dropping the temperature in a sultry summer greenhouse or providing targeted humidity to tropical plants, the Elbow Mister (5-Pack) offers unparalleled flexibility. What sets this low-flow mister apart is its unique one-piece construction featuring a 1/4″ barbed elbow base. This right-angle design makes it an exceptional directional sprayer, allowing you to easily aim the mist exactly where it is needed at the end of a 1/4″ micro tubing line. Emitting a microscopic 50-100 micron droplet, it produces a cooling fog that flash-evaporates, effectively reducing heat stress in enclosed structures without drenching the foliage below.
- Unique Directional Control: The integrated 90-degree barbed elbow allows you to easily orient the misting head horizontally or vertically when installed at the end of a micro tubing run.
- Dual-Purpose Design: Ideal for dropping ambient temperatures in hot summer greenhouses, or providing a high-humidity microclimate for orchids, ferns, and tropicals.
- Ultra-Fine Droplets: Atomizes water into tiny 50 to 100-micron droplets, ensuring rapid evaporation to cool the air without causing damaging puddles or soil erosion.
- Economical Low Flow: Consumes only 1.5 GPH per nozzle, making it highly water-efficient for running multiple misters simultaneously.
Review the exact performance metrics to integrate the Elbow Mister into your greenhouse or patio system.
- Operating Pressure: 35 to 80 PSI (Requires higher pressure for fine mist)
- Package Quantity: Sold in economical 5-Packs

Build your directional cooling or humidity system with ease.
Step 1: Prep Your Supply Line
For directional misting, run 1/4-inch micro tubing from your primary 1/2-inch mainline to the specific plant or area you want to cool.
Step 2: Insert the Elbow Mister
Take the Elbow Mister and push its 1/4-inch barbed end directly into the open end of your 1/4-inch micro tubing. Push firmly until it is fully seated.
Step 3: Position the Spray
Use a stake, clip, or wire tie to secure the micro tubing. Rotate the tubing or the mister head to point the spray pattern exactly where you need humidity or cooling.
Step 4: Verify System Pressure
Turn on your water supply. Ensure your system pressure is regulated high enough—between 35 and 80 PSI—to properly atomize the water into a fine fog.
