Good luck!
Hey, thanks! I'll check that company out.
Skuzzy, that's exaxtly what I do too. I don't care what I look like. I also wear a long sleve 100% nylon shirt with a vent in the back. That thing works awesome.
Thanks for all the help everyone.
By the way, it's not just the outside heat that is getting to us. I've lived and worked in Arizona all my life, so I do know how to protect myself.
Working in 110 and even up to 118 heat can be done but it depends on what you're doing.
The artificial grass we work on gives off intense heat. I haven't measured it yet, but it's hot enough to burn you through your jeans.....you have to wear gloves to touch it. I'd say we are working with a surface temp of close to 200 degrees, maybe 5 feet up. That kind of heat drains you very quickly.
So, I think these heavy duty misting fans could help. I saw one that puts out a fog and covers a 1000 sf area. It's supposed to cool the air by as much as 25 degrees, but's it's also $ 2k.
I have ordered a smaller verion to test before I decide to buy 3 more. I'll let you guys know how it turns out.
