If you have a misting system at home you know how refreshing it is to have such a refreshing source nearby. The cooling system will keep you and your plants at the optimum temperature, but when it needs repair, you will wonder how you lived without it. First check your warranty to see if it is still covered. Then check with the place that installed it and see if they provide repairs when needed. Here are some things to take into account when trying to determine how much it is going to cost to have your system repaired. ## Installation, Size And Parts ## Most repairs for a misting system are much less extensive than you may think. The system itself is made up of pipes and tubes that allow water to flow by air that is compressed to create a fine mist. It is not a complicated system and most of the repairs are to replace a nozzle, pipe or fuse that has blown. ## Reduced Pressure ## If you sense that the pressure in your misting system has been compromised in any way, it could mean that you have to have it repaired or replaced. This means that you won't have to deal with any of the tubes or pipes and simply change out the compressor. The cost to replace it will be determined by the power level you chose when you had your system installed. Make sure that the compressor is strong enough to power up your system or you will just keep having the same problems. ## Accessibility ## Another factor in the amount it will cost to repair your misting system is the ease of reach to make the repairs. If the compressor is hard to get to or you have pipes in unusually higher than normal places, you should let the professional know in advance before he heads over to repair your system. ## How Much Does It Cost To Repair A Misting System? ## The national average cost of repairing an outdoor misting system ranges from $472 - $698. Most homeowners paid around $585 for their repairs. Just make sure that you enlist the help of professionals who are familiar with outdoor misting systems like yours. You may be pleasantly surprised that the costs are not as high as you may have initially thought. Try to get a warranty if you need a new compressor.
