I’m not a professional you tuber, so please disregard the quality of the video. I just like to have fun with fog on Halloween.
I’ve had a few people ask me to make a low lying fog chiller using regular ice instead of dry ice and a 400/500 Watt Fog Machine. So…. Here is a video using a 500w Amazon fog machine, a bag of ice, 5 gallon bucket and 1.5” PVC. I made this chiller back in 2017, so I took it out of storage for this video.
In the video, I state the fog fluid is $19.99, I checked on Amazon and it’s actually $29.99

EXACTLY what I was looking for. I have the same fogger (2nd one) and I'm fired up to use your method. THANK YOU!

@donreid6399 2 года назад

We did something similar for our 'haunted barn'. We sent the fog through a 30 gallon drum containing corrugated aluminum hose with ice inside the drum. The effect was incredible!

@noelbehan4118 2 года назад

Dampen grounding around the front of fog chiller helps fog to stay low and roll.Cooler ambient temp helps keep the fog low.

@roguea987 2 года назад

That is because, it is the humidity bonding with the glycerin in the fog that keeps it low hanging. Recently watched a video, guy used a ten head pond fogger in an aquarium, no ice, and the fog stayed low and hung around longer. That is why the creep from the wet ice chiller is better. That fog is passing over the melting ice and picking up more humidity as it isn't being forced through the chiller so fast.

Nature did that for me in 2008 when it rained earlier in the day. We set it up at my Grandma's house since she got 360 ToT's. It was fun.

@ryanjoseph8231 Год назад

Why? Why won’t a a pipe going straight in do the same thing?

@JeremyPrend Год назад

Ryan, it may do the same thing. The goal is to just get as much contact with something colder than the fog (wet/dry ice).

@JeremyPrend 2 года назад

Ha! I’ve had to clean spilled fog juice out from inside the machines before. It never really dries up, until it collects all the dust.

@PhilLesh69 2 года назад

Years ago I built a similar fog chiller using the largest plastic insulated igloo cooler I could find. Same PVC pipe and the same rubber reducer on the intake tube. The longer space helped give the fog more time flowing through the ice. But your 90 degree elbow putting the fog above the ice might actually work better since it has to fall through the entire column of ice. But those buckets are thin plastic so you probably go through ice faster. Moving the fog machine nozzle further away from the chiller intake allows air into the tube with the fog and also helps keep the pressure inside equal to the outside pressure so the chiller fog will keep flowing even when the fog machine is not actively generating a stream of fog. If the fog machine nozzle seals against the intake it restricts airflow.

@JeremyPrend 2 года назад

Good advice!! Thank you

@JeremyPrend 2 года назад

I just tried your advice tonight and you are correct. It’s 64 degrees outside and it worked perfectly.

@blackc1479 2 года назад

I built a similar cooler this year, and i gotta say the results vs the "dry" type coolers w dryer hose or something similar that ive seen are huge. Much better errr....cling? to the ground w a wet system. (Ours was actually on a deck, and had a really cool "fall through" effect going)

I found out that if you use an elbow facing downward for your exhaust, it seems to stick to the floor better than just shooting straight out. The force blowing straight out seems to dissipate more.

@olivercanalesgreenwood1974 Месяц назад

That noise wasn't a pump cleanliness issue, it was the fog machine not registering fluid in the tube. The pump needs to warm up and gather fluid in the tube first. When you turn ur machine on first let the fluid get through the entire tube by letting the machine run with that noise for a few seconds.

@vinceroadie1982 2 года назад

You need to use the correct fluid for this to work correctly! you can get high density fluid which has a fast disapate, meaning it stays low, but as soon as it gets to knee height it dissapears. Normal fog fluid wont work, unless its a really cold, dense atmosphere.

@MrSnowFoxy 2 года назад

I usually just mix my own fog juice for water based fog machines, having grown up with them and model trains, you can make the fluid with vegetable glycerin and water. works pretty well and you can control the ratio to get the exact density for your project.

@JeremyPrend 2 года назад

So do you use distilled water only?

@JeremyPrend 2 года назад

I really want to try this, but I don’t want to mess up my new machine. It seams simple enough. And also… a money maker if you can come up with a great solution…. Lol

@@JeremyPrend its really simple. Its the same ingredients already in comercial fog juice. They just use. 70-90% water. If you mix up 40-50% vegetable glycerin or propylene glycol and 50% water it will be fine in most cases and way better than comercial stuff

@TheSheepDogPatriot1776 2 года назад

Do you find the smoke, stays lower better if it actually touches the ice? I have mine going through a dryer vent in a tub thats filled with ice. So the smoke never makes contact with the ice. Also I guess smog bog or swamp juice made by froggys, is really thick and if chilled properly stays low. Im going to get some and let you know. Im in Oregon, and when I tried my setup with regular lowes fluid. it was mhhee.

@JeremyPrend 2 года назад

I’ve had pretty good luck doing both methods. It really depends on the outside ambient temperature. That said, if the fog actually touches the ice, it does cool the fog a bit better. If the ambient air temperature is warmer, using a coiled up vent tube with ice packed around the tubing should work fine. It will also help the ice last longer. If Oregon is anything like where I live, October 31st can range from a blizzard to 90 degrees. Lol. So if you can check the temperature of your fog output once it goes through the coiled vent, if it’s say 45 degrees and it’s say ambient temp of 65, you should get good results. If it’s colder outside, ice contact will help a little more. But the ice will also melt faster. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have anymore questions.

@@JeremyPrend yeah in Oregon around oct 31st its usually rainy and a little windy about 50-55 degrees.

@JeremyPrend 2 года назад

@@TheSheepDogPatriot1776 would you be able to experiment with your machine and chiller beforehand? If so, I would recommend trying out your different options. Every machine I have, every chiller I have built; all seem to work differently with the outside temp and wind. I actually have a note attached to each bc I always forget. Hopefully you get lucky on Halloween with the wind. Last year I had to put up some silt fencing bc it was really windy out. It helped a lot. However, low wind is always better.

@superbmediacontentcreator 2 года назад

I don't get the gooseneck and I doubt that it serves much of a purpose but it is pretty. I think if anything it would have been better on the outside which would give you a lot more space for ice.

@JeremyPrend 2 года назад

Michael for both the entry and exhaust I used this. They also sell without the “stops” in the middle. The grate in the middle is just a 5 gallon paint screen. And yes, PVC cement and primer. I also added a screw on the top of the 180 degree turn for support. You can buy those cheap silicone tubes of caulk to seal it up some. But it’s nearly impossible to completely seal up the bucket. Fog Juice is so sneaky. Let me know how it goes and if you have any more questions.
