The best way to raise humidity for mushrooms – 9 disc Mist Maker in operation- Water Foggers

We ship worldwide. Check out our website link in the description. Thanks!

Fog is heavier than air, so it’ll always lay low. If you are cloning, you can use the water level to help control where the fog sits.

Thanks!

A nine disc would be suited for a larger room upwards of 10×20 for mushroom growing with humidity levels in the 90’s, but good handle a larger room if you were only looking to try to hit 65%.

Here’s some info I give all my humidity customers… This should give you most of what you need to figure out what size you want.

Choosing the right size Mist Maker depends on a few different things. Ambient humidity, target humidity, air exchange, and the type of material your room is constructed of all plays a part.

A lower ambient humidity will increase the need for more discs, as well as a higher target humidity. The amount of air exchange you have will play the biggest part in deciding which size you need. If you are constantly bringing in new air, you have to work much harder to bring up the humidity. Rooms constructed of concrete tend to absorb moisture for quite some time before leveling out. This can increase your need for a bigger Mist Maker as well. 

With low air exchange, a smaller unit can be used. It may take longer to reach your target humidity level, but as long as drier air not being constantly introduced to the room, a smaller unit will suffice. 

With that said, I typically recommend a larger unit such as a 6 to 12 disc Mist Maker for larger rooms, Shipping containers,  and greenhouses. It is better to have a capable unit that runs much less, than an inadequate unit that has to run 24/7. Mist Maker’s heat the water that they are operating in, and heat can damage electronics. Very long run times in small reservoirs can push the max operating water temperature of 105°F. 

There are different options for controlling the output/ levels of humidity in the room. To make a fully automated humidifier you will need the mist maker kit, a 27 gallon Tuff Tote like in our video here (the more water the better),  our 120mm fan (fully encapsulated waterproof fan kit) or our Basic waterproof fan (Still a great choice) , a humidistat  (to automatically  turn the machine on/off when humidity is needed) , and our float valve  (to keep the water level full with an outside water source). 

For humidification purposes, it is recommended that you use our 120 mm, fully encased, waterproof fan in order to efficiently push the fog out into the room. Our smaller 80 mm fan is geared towards small applications.
