The heat is on just about all over the country and what a
time to pick up one of our newest items to stay cool or should I say cooler by
up to 30%. Lava Heat- Italia, who
brought to this country the very popular Glass tube Outdoor heaters has decided
that they need an equally dynamic product for the summer months and are
introducing the Oasis misting cooling fan. I was skeptical at first to bring on
this product line as my wife, Cathy and I once had a misting fan about 3 years
ago that we purchased from Lowes. It worked for a while but was somewhat
difficult as it that it had to be located near electricity AND near a water
hose connection. It did put out a good amount of spay, so much so that anything
it was pointed at eventually became soaking wet. After the second season of
use, the smaller hose that sprayed the mist eventually became brittle and
broke. Now we have a fan but it no longer mist.
Along comes the Oasis Misting Fan that only needs and
electrical connection as it carries its own 5 gallon reservoir of water. The
fan is on wheels so that it is very mobile when using a long extension cord.
Water is drawn from the reservoir and a stream of water is directed to a
spinning plate which creates the mist that is then blown by the fan up to 22’
away. Excess water is captured and then returned back the reservoir
which is then reused. Unlike
our old fan that soaked everything that it was pointed to, the Oasis fine
mist just cools but does not soak. The water will last up to 8 hours. The fan has two
speeds, a timer and it rotates 90 degrees and can be controlled by a remote.
This is perfect for a commercial environment such as an outdoor restaurant. The
manager from say behind the bar can turn the fans on and off, control the
rotation and turn the misting on and off. The fan is also great in factory environments,
auto garages, waiting areas public & private pools or anywhere people need to be cooled down.
We recently sold two of the fans to one of our favorite
watering holes, The Blue Parrott, here on Lake Norman, NC. The video shows the
fan in action. For only the month of July we are offering our Blog readers a $100 dollar discount. Use Coupon Code OASIS100.
For those following our efforts to restore Sinbad, the
1968 all wood Egg Harbor yacht, the profits from our dedicated PatioandYards
web site for the month of June were $1,414.22
which more brings the total savings to $2664.22. When work starts in earnest on Sinbad at the
rate of $65.00 per hour, that works out to about 40 man hours out of the
estimated 1000 man hours that will be needed. Whew, still a long way to go.
Stay tuned and of course, stay cool
