FAQ
System Advantages
What makes a Pynamite system different from other systems?
- Design – the Pynamite Cube Pro was designed for people that don’t want a big ugly 55 gallon tank in their yard. The Cube tank is still 55 gallons, but only 26 inches cubed! And all the components are safely and securely stored under the lid. The small footprint is what every home an barn owner if looking for.
- Versatile – In addition to plugging a Pynamite Cube Pro system in to a regular household outlet, the Cube Pro Solar system can be powered by an optional solar panel. Pynamite offers the only complete misting system that can be powered by the sun. And if you purchase the optional solar panel you may be able to take advantage of the Residential Renewable Energy Credit and receive a 30% tax credit on the entire price of your system – including installation if you pay to have it installed.
- Innovation – The Pynamite Wi-Fi/Bluetooth controller and Pynamite app make setting up your system easy. Simply download the free Pynamite app from the Apple Store or Play Store to your phone or tablet. Use the app to set up the misting cycles and as a remote control. When your system is connected to the internet, you can access it through the app from anywhere.
Misting
When do I schedule mist cycles?
Mosquito Control: set your system to mist at dawn and dusk and then again around 10 pm. And with the free Pynamite Wi-Fi/Bluetooth app, your system will always know when dawn and dusk is. You’ll never have to adjust your mist cycles for Daylight Saving.
No-See-Um Control: in addition to the mosquito mists, add mists for 15 seconds every 15-20 minutes after sunset.
Fly Control: schedule mists at 8:00 am, 10:30 am, 1:00 pm, 3:30 pm, and 6:00 pm.
How long do I mist?
We recommend a 30 second agitation and a 45 second mist, 3 times a day for mosquito and fly control. No-See-Ums need more frequent, shorter duration mists. Most systems on the market are not capable of setting different mist durations. The Pynamite set can set up to 24 independent mist cycles.
Nozzles, Fittings, & Tubing
Will you help me lay out my system?
Yes, all we need is a drawing of the area you want to protect and the lengths of everything and we’ll lay out where everything goes. Send it to info@pynamite.net
What kind of nozzles do you use?
We use proprietary Pynamite Slimline stainless steel nozzles with Viton seals. They resist corrosion and will last al long time.
How far apart do I put the nozzles?
Nozzles should be spaced 10 feet apart. Risers should be spaced out about every 8 feet.
How high up do I put the nozzles?
Nozzles should be placed 2-15 feet high – typically on the 1st story eve of a house and along the fence line. Nozzles can be placed on the railing and eves of a second story if you are protecting a second story deck area.
How many nozzles can I put on a system?
The Cube Pro, with its high pressure pump, can easily mist up to 60 nozzles. Add an optional Zone Kit and double the misting capacity to 120 nozzles!
What is the purpose of the Zone Kit?
The Zone Kit can serve 2 purposes. The 2 zones can mirror each other and mist on the same schedule or you can set up a completely separate mist cycles for the second zone. A Zone Kit can double the capacity of the Cube Pro system from 60 nozzles to 120 nozzles. And/or it allows you to set up a separate area that can have it own misting schedule.
What kind of fittings do you use?
Our fittings are all nickel-plated brass push to connect fittings. We do not use any plastic fittings!
What kind of tubing do you use?
Our tubing is ¼” Nylon tubing with 250 psi operating pressure and 1000 psi burst pressure.
Pump
What kind of pump does the system use?
The Cube Pro uses a high pressure 1/2 horsepower pump and motor. High pressure is great for getting the mist farther out into the yard where the breeze will carry it around.
Power
How do I power a Pynamite system?
Pynamite systems have two options. The Cube Pro system simply plugs into a standard household outlet. The Cube Pro Solar system uses a Solar Panel to power the system.
Solar Panel
