that's pretty impressive

Thank you for sharing ~~~💯

I would make the entrance and exit holes higher so when the ice melts it doesn't leak water or add an elbow attachment inside each hole turning upwards.

Great

Love the tutorial. I'm trying to host an awesome Halloween party this year and want to have the whole floor of a 2100sqft condo covered. It's all one floor, thinking of positioning three or so of these strategically. How long does the ice last before needing replacing? What do you do with the water that comes from it melting? Does it end up dripping out the exhaust? I guess you can raise the exhaust a bit if you needed to. Can the cold smoke be routed with piping? PVC or any kind does it matter? Would metal dryer ducting be best since it might remain cold? Wouldn't mind having one of these in the corner with 10 or so feet of ducting in two or three directions to have it pump out in different locations.

Hello if I was you use a thinner PVC pipe as it will cool faster but I'm just wondering if a 2000w fogger would work for this

And yes u can use piping mate some just use piping with a box filled with dry ice it don't melt much from what I have seen

Has anyone compared the 2 types of chillers? Passing through a tube entirly through with ice around the tube and out .. VS .. one that sends the smoke actually through the ice and back into an outlet. Efficiency output etc?

You mean a gravity chiller like this one is and a proper vortex chiller.....with Aluminium ducting that goes round and round then covered in ice....

how about fire alarm system, does this smoke move up after chilled ?

Vasyl Marchuk I imagine it would, but I only use my fog machines outside.

Hello please respond would this work with a 2000w fog machine output 40,000 cubic ft (1333m3) approximately

Boo Hoo you’d need to make one a lot bigger, like out of a cooler or trash can. Like I said in the video, with a chiller this small, your best bet is to use a machine that is 400w tops.

Have you tryied dry ice...

the effect is better than ice

Nice comcept but when fog touches a surface it condens become water... the less walls or pipes i belive the better just cool the chamber as much as possible...

What happens when the ice melts...

North Eastern Iowa Wx, & more typically, when ice melts it produces water

I believe this question was meant to be the same question I have, which is that it appears that the fog outlet pipe is only 1" to 2" off the bottom of the bucket so the melt water will eventually flow out that hole. Seems like you use this outside so that is not an issue for you, but would make this less effective for indoor use. Can you confirm that this will eventually leak melt water? I am trying to come up with an effective design that is essentially what you have made, but that can contain all the melt water

​@@keithcox2003 I think what would make this design drastically better is to change the outlet where fog escapes. You can keep it on the bottom but make a 90 elbow straight up. Then another pipe straight up to at least the height of the container. Then, another 90 elbow out - basically forcing cold fog UP and OUT. This will help 2 design flaws: Cold air escaping at the bottom and water leakage. The force of new fog will push the chilled fog up and out and it should be even colder than before. In fact, I want to test this on my own but it makes sense in my mind.

@@isometrixk Outlet should always be bigger than the inlet, If you using say a 1.5" inlet the outlet should be at least 2" out. Having it the same size your increasing the dwell time the hot fog is in contact with the ice so it's going to melt it faster. But if the outlet is bigger it can escape faster so it not only makes the ice last longer it also prevents any back flow of fog so less chance of leaking out the chiller.
