Check what chemicals your utility puts in the water. The minerals are not bad for the cham but the chemicals are. I might be a little worried about the mister because the mineral build up is not just bad for the nozzles but the pump as well.
 
So, to help your mister nozzles you can clean them with vinegar periodically. You can hold a cup of vinegar up until the nozzle is submerged and let it fizz for a while. Periodically I take the tubing off the cage, coiling it all up in the mister bucket, and using the pump cycle vinegar through the whole system, then cycling some 2:10 bleach to warm water through it. rinse until you can't smell the bleach. This kept the mineral deposits down as well as bacteria.
