big abbles mister

You want a misting system that will spray for a constant durations about five times or more, longer than the 4 minutes this system can sustain.
 
thats a little out of my league and any ways i would have a hose going half way across my house do you now of any companys
 
Its simpler to build your own than to even set up a "premade" one. (Parts: Hose to 1/4" connection, 1/4" ID hose, 1/4" nozzle. Total cost: >$40)

What ever you do, ensure the pump can sustain itself for more than 20 minutes or so of constant running.
You'll also want something that is 'Dry run' safe.

Howdy,

If you want to go with a pump-based system, take a peek at Pro-Products' PMP-60 pump. It works well. All you need is their pump, some of their hose, and one mist nozzle per enclosure. Their pump is super quiet.

I like Pro-Products' pump and tubing:

I like the nozzle assembly (T-Deluxe or L-Deluxe) from:
http://www.mistking.com/
Ask for the nozzle without the anti-drip valve.

I like the cream (105 degree mist spread & 0.0153GPM) colored mist nozzle from:

If you do end-up getting something from them, buy a selection to experiment with, including some spares if you ever plug-up one.
 
You can use the TORO fogging nozzles and 1/4 inch tubing running from your laundry tub...if you have a basement you can run it from there and up through the floor in perhaps a closet that is in your reptile room just like a cable line.
 
I second the Pro Products pump kit. They make good stuff over there (have a heat panel from them) and they are friendly and informative people. I like to have a backup pump standing by and I plan on getting it from them this month.

I found a diaphragm pump (similar mech design as the big apple one) that made from italy only cost US$10 each that work pretty good with a single nozzle. So, I had equipped a few for my cham cage.:D

Herewith the web site of this pump for your interest....

Mister comparisons

Here's the link you were looking for:
http://www.chameleonsdish.com/hydration/wateringsystems.htm
It has comparisons of most of the misting systems sold. I have the ProMist PM60. It is quite. It can accidentally run dry without a problem. I don't have to self prime. I can use as big a water resevoir as I want. The crimps are made for high temps like those in herp cages.

The link also shows how to make your own.

Good luck.
Matthew
