The same mentality when people extensively spend on private water systems,

eventually switch to city water and it ends that costly misery of constant spending through bladder tanks, pumps, well issues.
If you do a little research, I think you will find that a private water system will cost far less year after year than city water does.

It's a given that if your stupid enough to keep buying your pumps and tanks from Sears, Big Box stores etc that you will spend more in the long run, but with good equipment properly set up by a knowledgeable service man, it will cost far less than city water. Then if you want to see a very large improvement in costs, add in the irrigation costs from Well water to City water.

Well I have decided I will build my own low end mist set up. I don't want to spend a bunch of money on something I only use now and then. I will keep you guys updated as I go. Like said before if it is that bad outside I will just go back inside. I have not had one in the past so as long as it takes that edge off it is ok with me. When I get closer to the time I will be puting it up I will probably have a few questions but thanks for all your replies so far.

Are you a licensed master plumber like myself that gets calls to switch to public water systems, people glad to have ended the constant worry of

Pressure Switch Failures

Bladder Tank Failures

Pump Failures

Foot or Check Valve Failures

Constant Well Problems

Water Quality Issues

Filter Replacements

Cistern Cleaning

Water Purchasing (when rainfalls are low)



People just want water, not all the random cost surprises that private systems always offer. People want to get away from anything that costs money in such a way that disrupts a constant.




I'll tell you: You start talking about products like these (mist systems) thinking that since you deal with pumps, you know enough to knock it. The difference is you don't understand it enough to even have a valid comment.

Stick to what you know like I have all these years and it will prevent you from getting removed everywhere you go.


I am actually trying to help you out, but you self-destruct everywhere you go. lol

So how did my mist system thread get turned into a debate about city/Private water? I am not interested in any sort of pumps or wells or anything other than a simple mist system that will get me a couple degrees cooler while I enjoy my drink of choice.

Please no more personal attacks.

Chris,

Set up your misters as I previously described and you should have no problems at all.

Well, I'm here for the love of the trade (plumbing) and the other is here to sell product.

I call my desire very honorable and I tend to bring tons of page views and intense plumbing discussions.

Sing it!

It's got a good ring to it.

We are all here to bring knowledge and discussion and if nobody disagreed with anyone else what fun would we have.

That's your opinion Dunbar, and several other Forum handles. You have been ragging on me for several years now on many Forums. You are one of those types that think it's a sin to sell things over the Internet. I don't know what your problem is with it, but you have always objected to it. One thing I'm not doing is blowing my own horn. I enjoy helping people fix problems with their well water systems (which is obvious you know little if anything about). I also don't mind selling a product in the process. I'm not pushy or flashy about it, but that is how I make my living.

Now if you seriously think City Water is cheaper than A water well, pump etc, keep thinking that. It's not my fault you don't know how to properly install one that will give years of service. As a matter of fact, you might be the reason so many people switch over because of your incompetence in the Water Well field. You stick to plumbing and I'll stick to what I know.

You started this, I'm willing to let it die here, how about you?
