If you already have a water pump for your house can't you just hook the misting pipes right into your house water pipes? Or is the pressure not high enough?
Also does the water for these systems need to be cooled, or it can just use standard room temp. water and still works ok?

What I learned as stated in my OP is that are basically 2 types [that I know of]....the low pressure that produces smaller droplets that wet the floor and other things that are within range. I have a short run of 4 emitters at low pressure and they are cool to stand under, but it quickly gets you wet.
Then there is the high pressure types that require a much more expensive pump and fittings, but put out a finer mist that doesn't wet surfaces, but cools the surrounding area.
As to the incomming water temp.....no problem with ambient temp water, as it's the evaporation effect that cools you and the air around you.
