A couple of three RASTAS and a few waterpipes will do the trick! Write it all down and thats the timing sorted,.....

not sure that will be anywhere big enough for over 1000 people venues, but in reality you will unlikely get anything bigger than that so is all good.
Id have got a hazer personally, its much more functional, more venue friendly, and just generally more pleasant for all involved.
For reference, the internal heating element and pumping mech in my machine which you have seen is scrumped from a magnum 2000, the model twice the size of the ZR22.

well,with a good fan, the 22 will do haze for venues of 2000+ - i know, ive done it!
unless you can afford a proper oil cracker like a df50, then the best way to go is a decent smoke machine which you can run low continuously, and a really good fan
water based haze machines are only small moke machines with fans, and a big price tag

i just want a nice fine covering of thin fog/haze not plumes of white smoke
if i dont find another zr22 i might get a magnum 2k
but i would have to research how reliable they are first

same factory these days - spend your money on a proper blower, not a desk fan,
im covering a 100 by 25m marquee with my trusty effects company supersmoke 1000 running at 25% tonight - and thats a smaller machine than the 22

hi mate the magnum 2k is no better than the zr22 you have, i would say the zr22 was a better machine , reliabilty of the magnums may be an issue, a local hire company had 3 , all are now out of service.
Having said all that, i have a zr22 thats flightcased thats stopped working, it used to work a ok and really blast out the smoke, then got a bit hit and miss and would only heat when it wanted to. Now it doesnt work at all, i was thinking that it needs a new heater block or can they be repaired??

take the lid off and have a good poke around. Its a very simple design inside, quite possibly just a contact filled with sticky glucocrud or something thats gotten a wee bit warm!
