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.
First timer here! How long do the four bottles last? And I have wood floors in my house will this method cause any damage to the flooring? Appreciate your help! You’re the only one replying ❤
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 !!
The idea's been around for a long long time he just presented it very well & concisely and got great indoor results. for how long though I 'd guess less than 30 min before the water bottles melted. he didn't say. I wish people would say "this is an idea I found online and this is my version or this is how you do it.' but they don't. others use perforated gardening hose duct taped on the end for back pressure with or without water bottles including the guys who invented the trash can chiller ghostofhalloween I was the one who thought of the coleman ice cube DIY vortex chiller while walking thru walmart. I didn't have a cat so didn't want to get a kitty litter pail people used to mmic the real vortex product In hindsight I just would have bought one of those but DIY is too much fun but also too time consuming. DIY-ers just have to make things harder than they need to be to 'save money' and put their own stamp on it including reversing the fog flow lol I almost tried this with drier duct but use the trash can version these days. I also use a 5 gallon bucket to a cauldron.
You put a lot of effort in making sure everyone knows this guy didn't come up with the idea. I don't think it really matters. It's about as important as knowing who figured out mentos and Coke makes for a good time. :P
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.
that's what I always laugh about. just had hole saw aluminum drier duct container or cooler pvc pipe cutter drill drill bit sharpie marker screws glue caulk laying around the house. otherwise it cost $3 for bagged ice lol
@@lord_granola3409 it wasn't his idea that's even cheaper unless you count the cost of an internet connection and a computer or deviice by which you find out what someone else already figured out years ago then it's very expensive
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.
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.
Jordy Reviews It at least an inch away it’ll prevent melting of the plastic hose and promote air into the pipe as the smoke enters creating more/further smoke throw from the opposite end.
First how long does this last before you have to replace ice bottles and second should you elevate the fog machine to eliminate the gathering of the moisture
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!
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
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.
I MUST HAVE SEEN 100 WAYS TO DO THIS, BUT THIS IS THE BEST AND EASIEST ONE. I TRIED THIS LAST SATURDAY BUT IT WAS VERY WINDY. I'LL TRY IT AGAIN THIS SAT.
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
That's good to know how long it lasted indoors that was my guess. did you drink from the water bottles or throw them away ; I'm not entirely sure I would. just something about it and thin walled plastic they use now a days.
@@yardhaunt2000 I know it’s been 5 years, but I’m still going to reply. You can drink the water before using the bottles and just fill them with a hose then freeze them and reuse the same bottles.
@@rogeliocano9536 Thanx! ah yes makes sense! I've seen the larger gatorade bottles in a 4"x10ft tube used. I've used ice put into plastic grocery bags inside the aluminum drier duct trash can version. The cheaper store's thinner ones worked better than the more 'high class' stores thicker ones to the point the ice didn't hardly melt in the cheaper thinner ones fwiw For kicks I was going to try ice cubes inside small plastic sandwhich bags twist tied to place inside a 'fogging' cauldron but I will also try the H20 bottles if I have enough room in the outdoor freezer is the only catch to those and why I never tried them. But this now obvious tip makes me want to try a few. no matter what, you always realize post-halloween you have to store the stuff no matter big or small lol
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!
wonder if you could throw some dry ice chips in there in stead of the water bottles? Might last longer and there shouldn't be any condensation as dry ice doesn't turn to liquid.
Well since we already purchased 10 pounds of dry ice I’ll just add that in the pipes with my frozen water bottles. I hope it works. I have 28 frozen plastic water bottles just sitting in the freezer so... why not? Did putting the dry ice alone work for you Cyndee?
I know that this is an older post but ive seen 5 different people ask "how long do the frozen bottles last" with no answer. can we get an answer from OP please?
One more question: Does this fog make the floor damp at all? I'd like ground fog for a music video, I just want to make sure it won't make the floor or equipment wet
I just found this video so hopefully get a response but how long with the fog last more specifically frozen bottles if using outside. Texas heat around 80 in October evening. Also will green laser lights amplify the fog? Hope to get a reply
😂😂😂😂After watching what felt like a MILLION fog chiller videos I happen on this "wellll duuuh" solution. Thanks a million for saving me a Saturday afternoon that will be best-used building props.
I am trying this method. Not sure what we’re doing wrong. I’m using Froggy’s Freezing fog. The effect is ok…but it’s still floating up in the air too much. We are using it in an outdoor fake cemetery application.
Let it run for a bit longer. While there is cold air in the tube, and the bottle plastic is cold, it will look great. Once the initial cold air is gone, and cold on the outside of the bottle, plastic can't conduct the heat fast enough to keep chilling at that rate.
What if I have a pond and want to stick the pipe under the water so when it bubbles up to the surface it is spreads on the surface of the water. Any issues or tips for that?
Nope. Just tried this everyone. It does not work w frozen bottles. Dry ice works awesome use that. I did a video comparison of frozen water bottles and dry ice side by side with 2 fog machines at the same time and it’s a no brainer. I was using cheap little 400w fog machine from Walmart, nothing big. Dry ice wins hands down. I bet regular ice would work better than bottles but don’t want the mess to deal with on my porch. Dry ice is 1.65 per lb;. 4 times the cost of ice but not a bank breaker. And it lasted about an hour inside the tube. I only used 4 lbs. dry ice worked better on 2 tubes pushed together, where the ice was in second tube farthest from fog machine. This gave the air being pushed 6 feet of cooling time before it hit the dry ice. That seemed to work best.
I wouldn’t recommend it, the dry ice is so cold it started impacting the environment around it. Only if you have like a metal coil kind of like the one for dryers that would actually improve the cold temperature. I bought 9lbs of dry ice I guess if I used it all it a time once if would have probably worked better.
The only issue I had with this design was the leaking. I can't have water on the floor when shooting a music video. But dry ice? Bam. Now I can try this design out.
My 700 Model will put out fog for about 20 seconds, then it kinda seems like it has to "recharge" for 40 seconds or so before I get the Ready light again. IS THIS NORMAL?
Yes, the liquid that becomes smoke/fog cools down the heater. The majority of budget machines can't output continious fog as the heater that makes the fog cools down too much. You can make your fog machine last last longer by using it in shorter bursts, this should give the heater some time to get back up to temperature.
Didn’t work for me. Can anyone give me some advice? I think I’m going to add an extension to my tube so I can fit a 4th water bottle because my pipe is about 3ft only. And I just put my fog juice in the fridge. Hoping when I try tomorrow it works. Question: Does the pipe have to be flexible? Because mine isn’t.
Same here doesn’t work. The fog machine puts out too much heat. Feel your fog you’ll see it’s still warm. You either need a way longer tube with a lot more frozen bottles or it needs to go through a bucket or ice chest. Have a lot of ice ready because these foggers run hot.
@@A-Negative Yeah I had felt the fog and it was pretty warm. I haven’t tried the juice chilled but yet the gig machine has to warm up which I feel would just warm up the fog and defeat the purpose. I’m wondering if there’s a fog juice that works better for that or if it just doesn’t matter lol
@@calmlcism Maybe try putting your fog machine at a further distance away from the pipe. I’m thinking about trying this as well. I’ll leave an update if I do end up trying it. I wonder if it will work better with my machine since I have the option to adjust how much fog it puts out.
CountZero on a haunt forum thought of the lawn & leaf/trash bag idea way back in around 2006-2008. I'm not sure how he figured it out but it creates back pressure to slow the fog down. it works most of the time. condensation builds up in it. it worked well with a vortex and 400 w fog machine outdoors for me in the past fwiw.

How long will this last before bottles need to be changed? Thanks.
Oh this does seem a lot better than other techniques. Thank you

Because size matters!😂
About how long do the ice bottles last before they need to be replaced?
👏👏👏👏the smartest and best idea i have ever seen.👌👌👌👌
Pretty cool. Can I ask what fog liquid you used here?
AWESOME!!! Thanx for the tip about the frozen water
I bet you could use those gutter downspout extenders too!
I watched this video 5 times in a row thank god for you!
Does this still require the fog liquid or is this a substitute?
Omg this is sooo easy! Everyone else is like, first make an air conditioner. lol.
This looks like bar far the best method ever! Will test tomorrow with my son.
How did it work out?
@@Bubbalubagus it worked well, but the ice would melt fairly quickly so we had to have quite a bit on hand to swap out.
Can anyone tell me what this sort of hose is called? The closest I could find at Lowe's was an aluminum one
The fog is it just water vapor? Like the dry ice cold water vapor right?
Because this fog does not look like vapor but rather smoke lol dense smoke! 🎉
hell yes Andrew wade!! thats what I am talking about ! so genius!! can't wait to try !
What's the watt of the fog machine
Would this work with ADJ Mr Kool for an even better effect due to double cooling? Or maybe the pressure/speed of the smoke would be too low?
Ugh i think its rio cold outside today and tomorrow in Tx. Its 45 right now. The fog from mine comes out and just blows away
I have a fog machine and water bottles are easy to come by so after I stole my neighbors gutter extension, I hooked it up and it works great. Thanks

I am trying this method. Not sure what we’re doing wrong. I’m using Froggy’s Freezing fog. The effect is ok…but it’s still floating up in the air too much. We are using it in an outdoor fake cemetery application.
Get the bottles wet on the outside, the fog will lower on 2 factors: 1) being cold - which is smoke inversion 2) if it gets wet
Will this work as well if even better with dry ice?
Could you put dry ice in the tube?
Do I need a specific low-lying fog machine and low-lying fog solution for this or will any fog machine and solution work?
anyone try this outside? The frozen bottles chill the fog quick enough before it leaves tube vs ice tote method?
Thank you! Short video, direct explanation.
Do you use low lying fog fluid or the regular fog fluid?
Let it run for a bit longer. While there is cold air in the tube, and the bottle plastic is cold, it will look great.
Once the initial cold air is gone, and cold on the outside of the bottle, plastic can't conduct the heat fast enough to keep chilling at that rate.
You’re a dummy.
I did this and it doesn’t turn out to be the same effect? Maybe the fog fluid I used. I mixed vegetable glycine with distilled water . Any advise ?
He has a chauvet DJ fog machine and possibly the fog juice he used to make a very thick cloud.
What if I have a pond and want to stick the pipe under the water so when it bubbles up to the surface it is spreads on the surface of the water. Any issues or tips for that?
Looks amazing.

Do we have to use and liquid in to the fog machine or will it be ok to run the fog machine without liquid ???
Do you need a particular fog machine or Juice??
If you want to step it up put dry ice on a towel in the pipe. This will help it not rise when people are walking
Thank you so much for this

Does it leave a residue everywhere?
Where can I find a big fat tube like that??
