How to Make the Easiest & Cheapest Fog Chiller Ever

This fog chiller could easily be made for under $10, or free if you can find this stuff laying around. The fog machine is a Chauvet Hurricane 700 and the pipe used is a gutter extension which you can find at a local hardware store.

Good stuff. Every other DIY fog chiller is like "Super Cheap Fog Chiller! Now pull out your thousand dollar drill set..."

I've done this for haunted houses before and the method works great. One suggestion is to wet the outside of the frozen bottles before tossing them in the duct. It amplifies the effect a lot more.

Another tip if using outside. Stop mowing your lawn a few weeks ahead of Halloween and wet the lawn before using the fogger. It helps the fog to stick around a bit longer.

Dude, I have made many fog  chillers, more expensive and time consuming....but your idea is, by far the easiest and cheapest And effective fog chiller there is, and the frozen water bottles....genius !!! Bravo !!!! Thanks for posting !!

So much more simple than the other solutions. Thanks for saving me the time it would take to build something inferior. You ROCK andrew. Keep it spooky indeed

I MUST HAVE SEEN 100 WAYS TO DO THIS, BUT THIS IS THE BEST AND EASIEST ONE!!

IMPORTANT: you should leave a gap between fog machine and pipe! This draws in air to the mix before it enters pipe, creating more fog and less moisture problems! Moisture in pipe is a failure of the system. you want maximum FOG (keep it in a gasous state) and not allowing condensation to form it back into a liquid state.

I actually did this and it's a genius way and it works. Paid 6 bucks for the same flexible pipe. I'm using it with ADJ Fog Furry 1000. Works better than my Mister Kool. Thanks!

Short, sweet, simple, to the point. I salute you. This is probably $30 cheaper than the rig I was going to build. Will use that money to supercharge the fog.

Great short, and to the point video!
I made something similar except I capped, taped, the end and used a drainage pipe with holes so the fog pours out the side rather than the end.
Works well if placing along a wall, fence line, or under bushes.

Absolutely amazing mate! I have a wedding to DJ at in a couple of days and they wont allow smoke machines as the smoke rises up and fills the room. They will allow dry ice and fog machines which this method emulates. Tried it out last night and it works brilliantly! Thank you sir. The people on the dance floor will now have that dancing on the clouds effect which is what I was after! And will make my lights look great also.

Thank goodness a simple quick tutorial video for my Halloween graveyard. I only 1 purchase of a hose. I’m doing this today. Already froze like 28 bottles of water

[daearanion]

It's not just cheap and easy, but works way better than the other build I was doing. KISS is once again the best way to go

[chrisanderson]

This tutorial spooked me real good, had to change the channel

I was watching all these videos of people making all sorts of contraptions for low lying fog and was like, why not just put ice in a tube and hook it up to the fog machine. Low and behold this video pops up lol. Thanks for keeping it simple!

Better late then never. Just found this and got my fog machine( same one in video) and have some Froggy's Freeze In Fog fluid coming. I might need to get a better fog machine but trying this first!

[zacharymatar]

Works great. Did this for my house, works for like 20 to 30 minutes, then you need to switch out water bottles. Floor became very damp though.

[thedoubleboiler]

This is perfect! I have some extra pipe lying in my garage. Time to put it to work. Thank you!

I just made this for free and it works amazing lol. Even better with a garbage bag at the end of it

[Sharkoceanscuba]

This is brilliant & so simple! Finally a DIY a I can do!
