Portable Misting Fans — 1000 PSI Self-Contained Cooling
Smart Mist USA's portable misting fans are built around one principle — powerful 1000 PSI high-pressure cooling that goes wherever you need it, with no hose hunting and no fixed water connection required. Every unit in this collection includes an integrated high-pressure pump, making them the most capable self-contained portable mist fans on the market.
The Cool Caddie is our flagship portable misting fan with tank — a self-contained unit with a 16-gallon built-in water reservoir, 5 stainless steel nozzles, four programmable misting cycle modes, and a variable-speed oscillating fan. Fill it with a bucket or garden hose and it runs up to 4 hours untethered. It cools up to 300 sq ft by as much as 25°F — quieter than a standard box fan at ~50 dB. Available in 18" and 24" fan head sizes, the Cool Caddie is ideal as a portable water misting fan for tailgates, outdoor weddings, hotel patios, sports events, restaurants, and RVs. Commercial-grade locking wheels and adjustable height make it easy to move even when full.
For large-scale industrial and commercial cooling, our Portable Mega Oscillating Misting Fan XL delivers 12,000 CFM of airflow across up to 1,750 sq ft with a 36" fan, 12 high-pressure nozzles, and a reach of up to 75 feet. With a 1/2 HP TEFC motor, 90° oscillation, and included 1000 PSI pump, the XL is the most powerful portable cool mist fan in our lineup — available as a floor unit or wall-mounted for permanent installation in warehouses, barns, and large event spaces.
Not sure which portable misting fans model fits your space? The Cool Caddie covers up to 300 sq ft — ideal for residential and small commercial use.
