Misting system spare parts: nozzles, tubing and matching what you already installed

The parts that actually wear

In normal operation, the wearing parts are predictable — and cheap compared with the downtime they cause.

• Nozzles: the first wear item. Ruby orifices hold their pattern far longer than plain metal, but they still need replacement at the published interval of about 2 years or more.
• Inlet filter elements: the part that protects everything else, and the one most often neglected. Clean or replace on the schedule, not when nozzles clog.
• Solenoid valves: moving parts, sensitive to water quality. Keep one spare per zone size.
• Pump wear parts: seals and valves on the plunger pump. Replace on the maintenance interval to protect the unit, which is specified at 5 years or more.
• Tubing and fittings: usually only damaged rather than worn — by UV, frost or site traffic.

Matching parts to a system you did not buy from us

This is the most common enquiry from installers: a system is in the ground, the client wants it serviced, and the original supplier has disappeared. Send us a nozzle and, if possible, a fitting and tubing sample, and we will identify the thread, orifice and tubing specification and quote equivalent parts. Matching the existing nozzle type is what allows you to service without redoing the pipework.

Keeping a system serviceable

Three habits extend the life of any misting installation: filter maintenance on schedule, a seasonal flush before the first run of the year, and a spare set of nozzles on the shelf. If you maintain customer systems, we can quote a standard spares kit at the same time as the original equipment so the parts are on site from day one.
