Abstract: A misting system has a reservoir located above the passenger compartment of a vehicle. The reservoir, which is capable of containing water and compressed gas, has a horizontally sloped bottom wall and a trough located at the bottom of the bottom wall. The trough has a trough wall that is vertically sloped so as to form a console that depends from the bottom of the reservoir. One or more misting nozzles are located in the trough wall and direct mist across the upper portions of the passenger compartment. By providing a trough, the possibility of water sloshing away from the misting nozzles and compressed gas leaking through the misting nozzles is reduced during vehicle movement. A valve is associated with each misting nozzle. The valve allows the regulation of the flow of mist from off, to partially open, to full open.
