Q: How much snow can I make with your snowmakers?
A: How much snow you can make depends on the weather conditions, type of snowmaker, and how much water
you are flowing out of the snowmaker. We give estimates for how much snow each of our snowmakers will make
over a certain area in the product description.

Q: Which type of snowmaker makes the most amount of snow, a high pressure snowmaker or a garden hose snowmaker?
A: Hands down high pressure snowmakers that use either a pressure washer or snowmaking pump make the most amount of snow per hour. High
pressure snowmakers follow a more efficient snowmaking process which is what allows them to make more snow. The amount of snow made between
a garden hose snowmaker and high pressure snowmaker is like night and day.
Q: What are the advantages of using a snowmaking pump instead of a pressure washer with one of your high pressure snowmakers?
A: You can read all the advantages of using a snowmaking pump by clicking here
Q: Do your high pressure snowmakers require adjustments?
A: Our professionally built high pressure snowmakers (Vector, Avalanche, Veyron, Snowstorm) come with an automatic nucleation valve that handles
all of the air and water adjustments for you so you do not have to worry about making any adjustments. The Kit 2 snowmaker however, requires you to
manually mix how much water mixes with the compressed air. If you want a high pressure snowmaker that will require no adjustments and is a "plug
and play" setup, then you will want to consider one of our professionally built high pressure snow makers.
Q: What is the difference between your professionally built snowmakers and your snowmaker kits?
A: Our professionally built snowmakers are made from the highest quality components and are built to last you a lifetime. Our professionally built high
pressure snowmakers come with an automatic nucleation valve which means you do not have to make any adjustments to the snowmaker. Stands are
available for our professionally built snowmakers while our snowmaker kits will require you to mount the snowmaker to something or create your own
stand. If you don't want to make a stand, most people will mount their kit built snowmaker to the side of a ladder or fence post using chicken bands.
We offer our snowmaker kits for those who want to make snow but are on a tight budget.
Q: Are your snowmaker kits easy to assemble?
A: The snowmaker kits are easy to assemble and instructions for assembly of the snow maker are included. If you have a vise and pipe wrench, it
makes assembling the snowmaker very easy. If you do not have a vise or pipe wrench, we recommend ordering the kit assembled so that you do can
save yourself some headaches trying to line the parts up straight. It is important that you line all the parts up as shown in instruction diagrams,
otherwise the snowmaker may not work.
Q: Do your snowmakers make real snow? Are they just like the ones at the ski resorts?
A: Our snowmakers make REAL snow which is why they require temperatures below freezing to work. Our snowguns are just a scaled down version of
the ones you see at ski resorts.
Q: Will I be wasting water by making snow?
A: No. When the snow melts it turns to water and seeps back into the ground. As the water seeps into the ground it is naturally filtered and then enters
the water table.
Q: Will making snow on my grass kill it come spring time?
A: No. Making snow on your grass actually helps your grass. When the snow melts it actually waters your lawn. Come spring time areas that had snow
on them will be nice and green.
Q: I heard man made snow holds up much better than natural snow in warm temperatures and through rain. Why is that?
A: Man made snow is much more dense than natural snow is and therefore it will hold up much better.
Q: Do the snowmakers make a snow falling effect?
A: The snowmakers do not really give you a snow falling effect. The snow makers make more of a mist cloud and tiny droplets of water fall to the
ground as snow once they freeze.
Q: Can you make snow indoors or inside an enclosed cool area such as a trailer?
A: Even though you may have the temperature low enough indoors to make snow, the humidity will quickly rise from the snowmaker running since it is
an enclosed area. The high humidity will not allow you to make snow. The only way to make snow indoors is if you have a sophisticated HVAC system
that will regulate both the temperature and humidity.
