Drill a 2.5 inch hole with the hole saw drill bit in each side of the cooler near the bottom, but high enough to clear the insulated floor of the container. The drain plug should give you an idea how high to cut.
The pvc pipe must be long enough to line up with the fog machine when the machine is placed on top of the cooler. Cut the pvc pipe to length, taking the elbows into account.
On the inside, cut two lengths of pvc pipe. One to go from the outside of the cooler, through the hole and to the middle of the cooler bottom. Dry fit with an elbow and cut the second piece an inch or two below the lid of the cooler.
For the outlet side on the front of the cooler, you can use either a short section of pvc pipe or a pvc increaser. We used an increaser so we could angle it downward a little.
Using pvc cement, attach all of the pvc components together in place after you are sure you have the correct measurements. I prefer waterproof caulk instead of hot glue, around the cooler holes to seal it well.
Prop a piece of chicken wire near the vent opening to keep the ice from clogging the front and to give more room for the fog to flow out.
Place ice inside the cooler. The cold air and ice will cool down the fog as it passes through the cooler. Dry ice works great but can be hard to find.
Setup your fogger. The fog machine generally must be 1 inch away from the entrance tube to prevent back pressure. Fill with juice and run per manufacturer's instructions. If you have any air leaks from the lid, you can tape closed.
