Upgrade Your Mist to the Next Level

A mid-pressure misting pump lifts basic low-pressure misting into a powerful cooling system, delivering restaurant-quality comfort. This booster pump increases water pressure to 160 PSI, creating finer mist droplets that evaporate instantly without wetting surfaces.

Key Features of the Mid-Pressure Misting Pump:

  • Pressure: 160 PSI for superior mist quality
  • Flow Rate: 63 gallons per hour
  • Power: Standard 120V operation
  • Weight: Just 5 pounds for easy installation
  • Design: Wall-mountable with slip-lock fittings
  • Compatibility: Works with existing 3/8" misting systems

This pump bridges the gap between low-pressure systems that barely cool and expensive high-pressure setups. It's the perfect solution for anyone needing effective cooling without the complexity or cost of commercial-grade equipment.

The pump operates quietly, making it ideal for any outdoor area. Unlike standard low-pressure systems, this mid-pressure system produces the fine mist needed for true evaporative cooling.

Installation is simple. Mount the unit, connect your existing misting line, plug it into a standard outlet, and attach your water source.

Understanding the Mid-Pressure Misting Pump

When summer heat is intense, a quality misting system provides true relief. At its heart is a powerful pump, and our mid-pressure model is designed to make your outdoor space truly refreshing.

The pump's primary function is to boost water pressure from a standard outdoor spigot's 40-60 PSI to an impressive 160 PSI. This higher pressure creates a significantly finer mist, which is crucial for effective cooling.

This pressure is key to "flash evaporation." Tiny droplets evaporate instantly, absorbing heat and lowering the air temperature without getting you wet. Low-pressure systems create large droplets that feel like a light shower, but our booster pump ensures true evaporative cooling.

This pump is the perfect upgrade for existing misting systems. If your basic misting line isn't performing well, our booster pump integrates seamlessly to improve its capabilities without a complete overhaul. It's an easy and effective upgrade.

For those looking to explore our full range of solutions, we offer comprehensive Mid Pressure Misting Systems that integrate these powerful pumps. You can also browse our selection of Pumps and other components to build or improve your cooling oasis.

Key Features of a Mid-Pressure Misting Pump

Here are the specifics that make our mid-pressure misting pump a standout choice for effective outdoor cooling:

  • Pressure Capacity (160 PSI): This is the core of its performance, producing micro-fine mist droplets that maximize evaporative cooling, ensuring you get cool, not wet.
  • Flow Rate (63 GPH): A robust 63 gallons per hour ensures a consistent supply of mist along your entire line for uniform cooling.
  • Power (120V): It plugs into any standard household outlet, so no special wiring is needed.
  • Compact and Lightweight: Weighing just 5 pounds with a depth of 5 inches, its small footprint allows for discreet mounting.
  • Wall-Mountable Design: This keeps the unit off the ground, protecting it from damage and ensuring a clean, professional look.

Installation and Power Requirements

A key advantage of our mid-pressure misting pump is its simple, DIY-friendly setup. The process is straightforward: choose a suitable location to mount the pump using the included wall mount instructions. We recommend a spot protected from harsh weather, near your misting line and a power outlet.

Connecting the pump is a snap thanks to the slip-lock fittings. Simply push your 3/8-inch misting tubing into the inlet and outlet ports. For power, the pump requires a standard 120V outlet. The water source is a standard outdoor spigot connected to the pump's inlet. It's a true plug-and-play solution.
