Attaching a Fogger tubing to PVC Enclosure

Hey everyone,

Looking through the search option I couldn't see anything that talked about this so if this has already been discussed before I apologize. I'm new here, take it easy on me !!

I'm curious if anyone knows any good ways to attach a Fogger to a PVC enclosure. I was thinking of replacing the tubing with PVC pipe so its hardier and stays in position better. Then drilling a hole on the top of the enclosure for the end of the piping. Then using silicone caulking around the end of the piping and the hole in the enclosure to make sure its escape proof. Of course putting a screen or a grate of sorts on the pipe so the snake cant go inside it either.

Reading this it sounds kind of confusing. If you have any easier methods let me know. Thank you!!

You may want to consider using a coupling at the top of the enclosure. That way you will be able to remove the pipe to clean it. Warm and cool air misting both can produce harmful bacteria that can cause respiratory infections. Screening and silicone can be applied to the coupling to hold it firmly in place or you could use a PVC glue. There are flexible couplings that can be used to firmly hold the pipe in the coupling without glue. They can be removed and reused making cleaning easier.
