I wondered if maybe we would be able to install a few misting fans over the weekend.
In the region where I live, the weather gets very hot and humid around this time of year. We recently gave our back porch a makeover. We built a deck and hung some lights, cleaned the grill and pressure washed the side of the house. We have been hanging out back there and eating dinner on the back porch for several weeks now. However, we are starting to notice that it gets very hot around dinner time when the sun is going down. I was thinking of a few ways we could provide shady areas for the guests. I considered a gazebo or building an awning, but did not want to put too much more money into the project. With the summer months coming up, I knew that it would soon be too hot to handle outside. I thought about a misting fan for the outside. There is not a way to install a cooling system on the patio, but a misting fan might do the trick. In order to stay cool, we need some sort of cooling system. I wondered if maybe we would be able to install a few misting fans over the weekend. They are surprisingly inexpensive and according to the reviews, they do a great job at cooling patios. I went to the local home improvement store and got a couple of the misting fans. They were even on sale! Upon installation, I noticed that one of the misting fans was missing a hose. I went back to the store and they gave me a new one and even refunded me!
