Common Atmosfear Hex Jet errors & problems
What techs run into most, and what's usually behind it. The step-by-step fix for your exact unit is in Ask Roadie.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
hex jet powers up, LEDs work but no fog
Likely cause: Fog machines lock out the pump until the heat exchanger is hot enough to vaporize fluid; firing early would push liquid fluid out of the nozzle.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
hex jet warranty / LEDs dead
Likely cause: Blizzard's own documents disagree on the warranty term, so the support ticket is the authority.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
no DMX control on hex jet
Likely cause: Standalone/auto modes override incoming DMX, and an unpatched fog channel leaves the pump idle even though the LEDs respond.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
pump buzzing, sputtering or spitting fluid
Likely cause: The heater can only vaporize a limited fluid volume per second; long continuous blasts outrun recovery and liquid escapes.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
tripping the breaker / how many hex jets per circuit
Likely cause: Fogger heaters draw near-full rated current while heating; two units or a unit plus other loads on one 15A circuit will trip it.
